NAME

OnSearch::Cache - Cacheing library for OnSearch.

DESCRIPTION

OnSearch::Cache provides the library routines that store and retrieve search results in OnSearch's cache. The library routines do some ordering of retrievals based on closeness of the match, and perform checks to ensure consistency of the cache with the site's documents.

EXPORTS

add_to_cache (session_id, entries);

Add_to_cache adds a matching document and the term or terms it matches to the cache.

posting_to_cache (postings, searchterms, matchtype, matchcase);

Posting_to_cache formats a cache entry from an index posting.

cache_retrieve (session_id, searchterm, term_ref, matchtype, matchcase);

Cache_retrieve returns cache entries that match the search term and other search criteria.

caching_enabled ();
