By default, if there's only one argument and it's a [primitive](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Primitive), it's used directly as a key, otherwise it's all the function arguments JSON stringified as an array. - -You could for example change it to only cache on the first argument `x => JSON.stringify(x)`. - -##### cache - -Type: `Object`<br> -Default: `new Map()` - -Use a different cache storage. Must implement the following methods: `.has(key)`, `.get(key)`, `.set(key, value)`, and optionally `.clear()`. You could for example use a `WeakMap` instead. - -### mem.clear(fn) - -Clear all cached data of a memoized function. - -#### fn - -Type: `Function` - -Memoized function. - - -## Tips - -### Cache statistics - -If you want to know how many times your cache had a hit or a miss, you can make use of [stats-map](https://github.com/SamVerschueren/stats-map) as a replacement for the default cache. - -#### Example - -```js -const mem = require('mem'); -const StatsMap = require('stats-map'); -const got = require('got'); - -const cache = new StatsMap(); -const memGot = mem(got, {cache}); - -memGot('sindresorhus.com') - .then(() => memGot('sindresorhus.com')) - .then(() => memGot('sindresorhus.com')); - -console.log(cache.stats); -//=> {hits: 2, misses: 1} -``` - - -## License - -MIT © [Sindre Sorhus](https://sindresorhus.com) |
