# AspNetCache-AzureTableStorage
|
|
Use azure table storage for AspNet core 1.0 Distributed Cache.
|
|
|
|
Azure Table Storage is a very cheap, [super fast](https://www.troyhunt.com/working-with-154-million-records-on/) key value store, and its much cheaper than the redis cluster in azure. This is not a true replacement for redis, and redis should be used if people have money, but this is designed to get people a very cheap cache in azure. Currently this doesn't actually support the dotnet core runtime, and won't until the Azure Storage client is updated to support core.
|
|
|
|
## How to use
|
|
|
|
`install-package AzureTableStorageCache`
|
|
|
|
In your startup.cs
|
|
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
|
|
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
|
|
{
|
|
services.AddAzureTableStorageCache("!!!CONNECTIONSTRINGHERE!!!", "tablename", "partitionKey");
|
|
// Add framework services.
|
|
services.AddMvc();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then in a controller just ask for an IDistributedCache in the constructor. Since this implements Microsoft's IDistributed cache, it could be easily swapped out for redis or another Distributed cache
|
|
|
|
```csharp
|
|
|
|
public class HomeController : Controller
|
|
{
|
|
private readonly IDistributedCache cacheMechanism;
|
|
|
|
public HomeController(IDistributedCache cacheMechanism)
|
|
{
|
|
this.cacheMechanism = cacheMechanism;
|
|
}
|
|
public async Task<IActionResult> Index()
|
|
{
|
|
var data = await cacheMechanism.GetAsync("awesomeRecord");
|
|
var result = string.Empty;
|
|
if(data != null)
|
|
{
|
|
result = Encoding.UTF32.GetString(data);
|
|
}
|
|
return View(result);
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
public async Task<IActionResult> AddCache()
|
|
{
|
|
cacheMechanism.SetAsync("awesomeRecord", Encoding.UTF32.GetBytes("Im Awesome"));
|
|
ViewData["Message"] = "Your application description page.";
|
|
|
|
return RedirectToAction("Index");
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
``` |
