How to cache blob type in laravel?

@hal.littel 

In Laravel, you can cache blobs using the cache store of your choice (e.g., file, database, Redis, etc.). Here's how you can cache a blob type in Laravel:

1. Store the blob data in a variable:

1

$blobData = // your blob data

1. Cache the blob data using the Laravel cache facade:

1
2
3

use IlluminateSupportFacadesCache;

Cache::put('blob_key', $blobData, $minutes);

Replace blob_key with a unique key that represents your blob data, and $minutes with the number of minutes you want to store the data in the cache.

1. Retrieve the cached blob data:

1

$blobData = Cache::get('blob_key');

1. Check if the blob data exists in the cache:

1
2
3
4
5

if (Cache::has('blob_key')) {
    // Blob data exists in the cache
} else {
    // Blob data does not exist in the cache
}

By following these steps, you can easily cache blob types in Laravel using the built-in cache facade.
