A HTTP Cache for Guzzle 6. It's a simple Middleware to be added in the HandlerStack. This project is under development but it's already functional.

composer require kevinrob/guzzle-cache-middleware:~0.5

or add it the your composer.json and make a composer update kevinrob/guzzle-cache-middleware.

Performance. It's very common to do some HTTP calls to an API for rendering a page and it takes times to do it.

With a simple Middleware added at the top of the HandlerStack of Guzzle6.

use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\HandlerStack;
use Kevinrob\GuzzleCache;

// Create default HandlerStack
$stack = HandlerStack::create();

// Add this middleware to the top with `push`
$stack->push(new CacheMiddleware(), 'cache');

// Initialize the client with the handler option
$client = new Client(['handler' => $stack]);

You can use a custom Cache with:

[...]
use Doctrine\Common\Cache;

[...]
$stack->push(new CacheMiddleware(new PrivateCache(new FilesystemCache('/tmp/')), 'cache');

You can use ChainCache for using multiple CacheProvider. With that provider, you have to sort the different cache from the faster to the slower. Like that, you can have a very fast cache.

[...]
use Doctrine\Common\Cache;

[...]
$stack->push(new CacheMiddleware(
  new PrivateCache(
    new ChainCache([
      new ArrayCache(),
      new ApcCache(),
      new FileCache('/tmp/'),
    ])
  )
), 'cache');
