SimpCache #
SimpCache is a caching library for Flutter that allows you to store and retrieve objects in a simple and efficient manner. The library creates a local variable of type Map and stores each object as JSON within it. Additionally, it also stores the JSON representation of each object in SharedPreferences using the EncryptedSharedPreferences package to provide an extra layer of security.
When you retrieve an object from SimpCache, it first checks the local variable to see if the object is already available. If it is not, it checks the SharedPreferences and retrieves the object as a JSON file. This approach allows SimpCache to provide fast and efficient access to cached objects.
To use SimpCache with complex classes, you must implement the toJson and fromJson methods for those classes. These methods are used to serialize and deserialize the objects into JSON format, which is then stored and retrieved by SimpCache. It's important to note that this requirement is due to the lack of Dart Mirroring/Reflect in Flutter.
Overall, SimpCache provides a simple and efficient caching solution for Flutter developers, and its use of SharedPreferences and encryption make it a secure choice for storing sensitive data.
Features 👇 #


🔸 Efficient caching: SimpCache provides an efficient caching solution for Flutter apps by storing objects in a local variable and SharedPreferences, which makes accessing cached objects fast and efficient.


🔸 Secure data storage: SimpCache uses the EncryptedSharedPreferences package to store JSON data in SharedPreferences, which provides an extra layer of security for sensitive data.


🔸 Easy to use: SimpCache is easy to use and requires minimal configuration. Once you have implemented the toJson and fromJson methods for your complex classes, you can start caching objects with just a few lines of code.


🔸 Works with complex classes: SimpCache allows you to cache complex objects that don't have a simple data type, by serializing and deserializing them to and from JSON format.

Cache objects

Cache objects using simp.cacheItem
final Student student = Student(
id: 1,
name: 'Yazan',
marks: [
Marks(
english: [9, 30, 42],
arabic: [7, 28, 37],
),
Marks(
english: [10, 36, 45],
arabic: [5, 31, 40],
),
],
);

await simp.cacheItem(student.id.toString(), student);
copied to clipboard

Note : Student Class must implement toJson & fromJson methods

example:
class Student {
late int id;
late String name;
late List<Marks> marks;

Student({required this.id, required this.name, required this.marks});

Student.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
id = json['id'];
name = json['name'];
if (json['marks'] != null) {
marks = <Marks>[];
json['marks'].forEach((v) {
marks.add(new Marks.fromJson(v));
});
}
}

Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
final Map<String, dynamic> data = new Map<String, dynamic>();
data['id'] = this.id;
data['name'] = this.name;
data['marks'] = this.marks.map((v) => v.toJson()).toList();
return data;
}
}

class Marks {
List<int>? english;
List<int>? arabic;

Marks({this.english, this.arabic});

Marks.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
english = json['English'].cast<int>();
arabic = json['Arabic'].cast<int>();
}

Map<String, dynamic> toJson() {
final Map<String, dynamic> data = new Map<String, dynamic>();
data['English'] = this.english;
data['Arabic'] = this.arabic;
return data;
}
}

Retrieve objects as JSON

Use simp.getItemByKey
//showSource -> Shows if the item is retrieved from RAM or SharedPreferences
final result = await simp.getItemByKey('1', showSource: true);

//Convert JSON to Student class
final Student student = Student.fromJson(jsonDecode(result));

debugPrint(student.name);

//OUTPUT : Yazan

Show cached objects

Use simp.showCachedItems
//If kDebugMode it will print all cached items.
await simp.showCachedItems(showSource: true);

Remove cached object

Use simp.removeItemByKey
await simp.removeItemByKey('1');
copied to clipboard

Clear all cached objects

Use simp.clearCache
await simp.clearCache();
