CONFIG['cache.memcached']['hosts'] = ['127.0.0.1']
class MyApp(App):
class Meta:
label = 'myapp'
config_defaults = CONFIG
extensions = ['memcached']
cache_handler = 'memcached'
with MyApp() as app:
# Run the app
app.run()
# Set a cached value
app.cache.set('my_key', 'my value')

app.cache.delete('my_key')
# Delete the entire cache
app.cache.purge()
~/.myapp.conf
[myapp]
# set the cache handler to use
cache_handler = memcached
[cache.memcached]
# time in seconds that an item in the cache will expire
expire_time = 3600
