ForgeTrust.AppSurface.Caching

Caching primitives for AppSurface applications built on top of Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory.

Overview

This package provides a small, focused caching layer for AppSurface modules. It is designed for scenarios where you want consistent memoization behavior, cache policies, and a module you can register into the AppSurface startup pipeline.

Key Types

• AppSurfaceCachingModule: Registers the package services into the AppSurface module system.
• IMemo / Memo: Memoization helpers for caching computed values and async results.
• CachePolicy: A simple policy object for configuring expiration and cache behavior.

Usage

Register the module in your application and inject IMemo where you want to cache repeated work:

C#public sealed class MyModule : AppSurfaceCachingModule
{
}

Use memoization for expensive or repeated lookups:

C#var result = await memo.GetOrCreateAsync(
    "docs:index",
    () => LoadDocsAsync(),
    new CachePolicy());

Notes

• The package builds on Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory, so it works well for in-process application caching.
• This package is intentionally lightweight and fits best when you want simple, application-level caching rather than a distributed cache abstraction.
