Connect Laravel 4 to Memcache

Laravel 4 Memcache support

========

SetUp Application

Add the package to your composer.json and run composer update.

"igormatkovic/memcache": "dev-master"

Add the memcache service provider in app/config/app.php:

'Igormatkovic\Memcache\MemcacheServiceProvider',

You may now update your app/config/session.php config file to use memcache

	'driver' => 'memcache',

OR...

Add this to your app/start/global.php (Cache only)

use Illuminate\Cache\Repository;
use Igormatkovic\Memcache\MemcacheStore;
use Igormatkovic\Memcache\MemcacheConnector;

Cache::extend('memcache', function($app) {
	$servers = Config::get('cache.memcached'); 
	$prefix = Config::get('cache.prefix'); 
				  
	$memcache = (new MemcacheConnector())->connect($servers);
			 
	return new Repository(new MemcacheStore($memcache, $prefix));
});

Update your driver app/config/cache.php

	'driver' => 'memcache',

Unit test view phpunit

	phpunit

Notice: This memcache driver uses the same config as Memcached

This addon was build because of the Webtatic repo lacking Memcache Support :/

laravel-4-memcache's Issues

"Class 'Memcache' not found" on local machine

I use memcache on the prod server, but file driver on local machine. The problem is that, even though, I have set session and cache drivers to file, the package still requires Memcache class. It works if I comment out the service provider, but that does not seem like a good idea.

Do you have any other ideas how could I completely ignore this package on local env, but it still would work on production?

a bit more detailed guide

Hi,
can you provide a bit more detailed guide how to "install" this?
I've already edited the global.php & cache.php files but after that I'm stuck...

thank you
