L4 Cache signature (list of most user methods)

Cache.php

<?php
Note that all items stored in the cache are serialized, so you are free to store any type of data
Cache::put('key', 'value', $minutes); // Storing An Item In The Cache
Cache::add('key', 'value', $minutes); // Storing An Item In The Cache If It Doesn't Exist
if (Cache::has('key')) {   // } ; // Checking For Existence In Cache
$value = Cache::get('key'); // Retrieving a Cached value 
$value = Cache::get('key', 'default'); // set a default value if key doesn't exists
$value = Cache::get('key', function() { return 'default'; }); // set a callback if the key doesn't exists
Cache::forever('key', 'value'); // storing a value permanently 
Sometimes you may wish to retrieve an item from the cache, but also store a default value if the requested item doesn't exist :
$value = Cache::remember('users', $minutes, function() {   return DB::table('users')->get(); });
$value = Cache::rememberForever('users', function() {  return DB::table('users')->get();}); //remember forever
Cache::forget('key'); // Removing An Item From The Cache
Cache::increment('key');
Cache::increment('key', $amount);
Cache::decrement('key');
Cache::decrement('key', $amount);
Note: Cache sections are not supported when using the file or database cache drivers.
Cache::section('people')->put('John', $john);
Cache::section('people')->put('Anne', $anne);
$anne = Cache::section('people')->get('Anne'); // Accessing Items In A Cache Section
Cache::section('people')->flush(); // Flush all items in the section

When using the database cache driver, you will need to setup a table to contain the cache items. Below is an example Schema declaration for the table :
Schema::create('cache', function($table) {
    $table->string('key')->unique();
    $table->text('value');
    $table->integer('expiration');
});
