The Cache class

This class is responsible for all the caching inside the application.

This is mostly just a big hash which is clever enough to set some default values and deal with paginated contents.

initialize

Initializes the different pieces of the cache to make sure that we are dealing with empty objects and not undefined for the first checks.

Returns null

add

Facility to add elements to a specific cache section.

When the section is empty, the given data is roughly stored.

When the section is already filled, the existing collection will be concatenated with the given one and the cursor to the next data page will be updated as well.

Parameters

• module String The module identifier; i.e. the root section.
• section String The section to fill.
• data Object The data to store.

Returns Object

fetch

Wraps cache sections within a Promise object. This is a facility to return data inside a Promise since model methods return such kind of objects.

Parameters

• module String The wanted module.
• section String The wanted section.

Returns Promise
