Some discussion is in the comments of #23218.
Highlights:
- Add Expiration for cache context. If a cache context has been used for
more than 10s, the cache data will be ignored, and warning logs will be
printed.
- Add `discard` field to `cacheContext`, a `cacheContext` with `discard`
true will drop all cached data and won't store any new one.
- Introduce `WithNoCacheContext`, if one wants to run long-life tasks,
but the parent context is a cache context,
`WithNoCacheContext(perentCtx)` will discard the cache data, so it will
be safe to keep the context for a long time.
- It will be fine to treat an original context as a cache context, like
`GetContextData(context.Backgraud())`, no warning logs will be printed.
Some cases about nesting:
When:
- *A*, *B* or *C* means a cache context.
- ~*A*~, ~*B*~ or ~*C*~ means a discard cache context.
- `ctx` means `context.Backgrand()`
- *A(ctx)* means a cache context with `ctx` as the parent context.
- *B(A(ctx))* means a cache context with `A(ctx)` as the parent context.
- `With` means `WithCacheContext`
- `WithNo` means `WithNoCacheContext`
So:
- `With(ctx)` -> *A(ctx)*
- `With(With(ctx))` -> *A(ctx)*, not *B(A(ctx))*
- `With(With(With(ctx)))` -> *A(ctx)*, not *C(B(A(ctx)))*
- `WithNo(ctx)` -> *ctx*, not *~A~(ctx)*
- `WithNo(With(ctx))` -> *~A~(ctx)*
- `WithNo(WithNo(With(ctx)))` -> *~A~(ctx)*, not *~B~(~A~(ctx))*
- `With(WithNo(With(ctx)))` -> *B(~A~(ctx))*
- `WithNo(With(WithNo(With(ctx))))` -> *~B~(~A~(ctx))*
- `With(WithNo(With(WithNo(With(ctx)))))` -> *C(~B~(~A~(ctx)))*
To avoid duplicated load of the same data in an HTTP request, we can set
a context cache to do that. i.e. Some pages may load a user from a
database with the same id in different areas on the same page. But the
code is hidden in two different deep logic. How should we share the
user? As a result of this PR, now if both entry functions accept
`context.Context` as the first parameter and we just need to refactor
`GetUserByID` to reuse the user from the context cache. Then it will not
be loaded twice on an HTTP request.
But of course, sometimes we would like to reload an object from the
database, that's why `RemoveContextData` is also exposed.
The core context cache is here. It defines a new context
```go
type cacheContext struct {
ctx context.Context
data map[any]map[any]any
lock sync.RWMutex
}
var cacheContextKey = struct{}{}
func WithCacheContext(ctx context.Context) context.Context {
return context.WithValue(ctx, cacheContextKey, &cacheContext{
ctx: ctx,
data: make(map[any]map[any]any),
})
}
```
Then you can use the below 4 methods to read/write/del the data within
the same context.
```go
func GetContextData(ctx context.Context, tp, key any) any
func SetContextData(ctx context.Context, tp, key, value any)
func RemoveContextData(ctx context.Context, tp, key any)
func GetWithContextCache[T any](ctx context.Context, cacheGroupKey string, cacheTargetID any, f func() (T, error)) (T, error)
```
Then let's take a look at how `system.GetString` implement it.
```go
func GetSetting(ctx context.Context, key string) (string, error) {
return cache.GetWithContextCache(ctx, contextCacheKey, key, func() (string, error) {
return cache.GetString(genSettingCacheKey(key), func() (string, error) {
res, err := GetSettingNoCache(ctx, key)
if err != nil {
return "", err
}
return res.SettingValue, nil
})
})
}
```
First, it will check if context data include the setting object with the
key. If not, it will query from the global cache which may be memory or
a Redis cache. If not, it will get the object from the database. In the
end, if the object gets from the global cache or database, it will be
set into the context cache.
An object stored in the context cache will only be destroyed after the
context disappeared.
