Cache
From FaxStore V3 there is a built in cache which can be useful to developers and extension creators as data is cached and automatically refreshed. This can reduce non urgent queries and API calls that may not be needed.
FaxStore caches a range of items currently including; products, reviews, customers, settings, and more! By using the global variable CACHE the object can be referred to and used in a read only state. The cache automatically updates every hour, or on specific calls, like when a product is created the products cache updates.
Cached Content:
-
CACHE.customerscontains an array of customer data, not all database columns are reflected -
CACHE.reviewscontains an array of all reviews -
CACHE.productscontains an array of product data, not all database columns are reflected -
CACHE.settingscontains an object of all site settings from the database -
CACHE.categoriescontains an array of all store categories -
CACHE.discordcontains an object if the Discord bot, this can be used to access channels, create commands and use the Discord integration
Basic usage
console.log(CACHE.customers) // will output an array of all customers
// Or to find a specific customer we could use
let customer = CACHE.customers.find(f => f.userId === "282762192544333827");
console.log(customer)
