Question

We are using symfony 1.4 on our development machine

traditional way to cache partial in symfony is by editing cache.yml

something:
  enabled: true
  lifetime: true

this will store cache on the disk

but we want to store cache on memcache instead on disk.

so, the question is how to cache symfony partial in memcache

Answer 1

Symfony partial cache work like all other cache in symfony: it refers to view_cache part of apps/frontend/config/factories.yml.

For example, if you want to store your cache in SQLite database:

all:
  view_cache:
    class: sfSQLiteCache
    param:
      database: %SF_TEMPLATE_CACHE_DIR%/cache.db

So if you want to store these information into Memcached, you should use the sfMemcacheCache.class.php class:

all:
  view_cache:
    class: sfMemcacheCache
    param:
      servers:
        server1:
          host: localhost
          port: 11211
          persistent: true

OR

all:
  view_cache:
    class: sfMemcacheCache
    param:
      host: localhost
      port: 11211
      persistent: true
