webpack.Cache

Abstract cache interface backed by tapable hooks for reading, writing, idle transitions, and shutdown across webpack cache implementations.

new Cache(): Cache

Initializes the cache lifecycle hooks implemented by cache backends.

• hooks {{ beginIdle: SyncHook<><<[]>; endIdle: AsyncParallelHook<[]>>; get: AsyncSeriesBailHook<[string, Etag | null, GotHandler[]], any>; shutdown: AsyncParallelHook<[]>; store: AsyncParallelHook<[string, Etag | null, any]>; storeBuildDependencies: AsyncParallelHook<[Iterable<string, any, any>]> }}
• STAGE_DEFAULT <number>
• STAGE_DISK <number>
• STAGE_MEMORY <number>
• STAGE_NETWORK <number>

beginIdle(): void

Signals that webpack is entering an idle phase and cache backends may flush or compact pending work.

endIdle(callback): void

• callback {CallbackCacheCache} signals when the call finishes
• Returns: <void>

Signals that webpack is leaving the idle phase and waits for cache backends to finish any asynchronous resume work.

get(identifier, etag, callback): void

Retrieves a cached value and lets registered gotHandlers observe the result before the caller receives it.

shutdown(callback): void

• callback {CallbackCacheCache} signals when the call finishes
• Returns: <void>

Shuts down every registered cache backend and waits for cleanup to finish.

store(identifier, etag, data, callback): void

Stores a cache entry for the identifier and etag through the registered cache backend hooks.

storeBuildDependencies(dependencies, callback): void

• dependencies {Iterable} list of all build dependencies
• callback {CallbackCacheCache} signals when the dependencies are stored
• Returns: <void>

Persists the set of build dependencies required to determine whether the cache can be restored in a future compilation.

Creates a callback wrapper that waits for a fixed number of completions and forwards the first error immediately.
