📄 Description

cachetools

The cachetools module provides various memoizing collections and decorators, including variants of the Python Standard Library’s @lru_cache function decorator.

For the purpose of this module, a cache is a mutable mapping of a fixed maximum size. When the cache is full, i.e. by adding another item the cache would exceed its maximum size, the cache must choose which item(s) to discard based on a suitable cache algorithm.

This module provides multiple cache classes based on different cache algorithms, as well as decorators for easily memoizing function and method calls.

What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones?

This module provides many useful variants and extensions of the Python Standard Library’s [@lru_cache (http://docs.python.org/3/library/functools.html#functools.lru_cache) function decorator.
