- update to v5.2.0
* Add cachetools.keys.methodkey().
* Add cache_clear() function to decorators.
* Add src directory to sys.path for Sphinx autodoc.
* Modernize func wrappers.
- update to v5.1.0
* Add cache decorator parameters as wrapper function attributes.
- update to v5.0.0
* Require Python 3.7 or later (breaking change).
* Remove deprecated submodules (breaking change).
The cache, fifo, lfu, lru, mru, rr and ttl submodules have been deleted. Therefore, statements like
from cachetools.ttl import TTLCache will no longer work. Use from cachetools import TTLCache instead.
* Pass self to @cachedmethod key function (breaking change).
The key function passed to the @cachedmethod decorator is now called as key(self, *args, **kwargs).
The default key function has been changed to ignore its first argument, so this should only affect applications using custom
key functions with the @cachedmethod decorator.
* Change exact time of expiration in TTLCache (breaking change).
TTLCache items now get expired if their expiration time is less than or equal to timer(). For applications using the default timer(),
this should be barely noticable, but it may affect the use of custom timers with larger tick intervals. Note that this also implies
that a TTLCache with ttl=0 can no longer hold any items, since they will expire immediately.
* Change Cache.__repr__() format (breaking change).
String representations of cache instances now use a more compact and efficient format, e.g.
LRUCache({1: 1, 2: 2}, maxsize=10, currsize=2)
* Add TLRU cache implementation.
* Documentation improvements.
