Cache.New

Overview

New creates a cache that evicts least-recently-used entries when size exceeds maxSize. Node: new LRUCache({ max: maxSize })

If you are coming from Node.js, the closest pattern is new LRUCache({ max }).

Method on Cache — call it on a value of that type after constructing or receiving one from a constructor.

Signature

func New(maxSize int) *Cache

Compare: Node.js · Standard Go · gox

Node.js

const cache = new LRUCache({ max: 100 });

Standard Go

// sync.Map or lru cache library

gox

import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/cache"

c := cache.New(100)

Example

import "github.com/sahilkhaire/gox/cache"

c := cache.New(100)

Tips

Obtain a Cache value first (see constructors on the package overview), then call New.

Standard library alternative

gox wraps the Go standard library or a trusted dependency with Node-familiar naming. You can use the underlying library directly — see the package overview for escape hatches.
