Please refer to lru-cache.
Type: boolean
Default: true
When set to other than true
, the null
value is not cached with memoize
and memoizeSync
.
Only when the key is not present in cache (or has expired), valueFn
is called and placed into cache.
The cached value is returned when it becomes available (important in the case where valueFn
is async).
The cache is left empty if an error is thrown at any point in valueFn
(even asynchronous).
Useful when multiple async operation need to access the same async information.
Similar to "memoize", when key is not present (or has expired), valueFn
is called and placed into the cache.
Cached value is returned from the function.
valueFn
can be a synchronous or asynchronous function.
If valueFn
is an asynchronous function and an error is thrown asynchronously, the cache is not invalidated.
