Laravel Redis Cache Store Override

A simple package that overrides the default behavior when flushing the Laravel Redis cache store.

Why?

The default behaviour of Laravel's Redis driver when calling cache()->clear() while using the Redis cache driver is to call a flushdb command for the entire Redis database. This is not always desirable, especially when using a multi tenancy Redis instance.

This package overrides that behaviour by clearing only the keys that match the cache prefix, stopping a global flushdb command from being called.

Installation

Simply pull the package in using composer, as below and you're good to go!

composer require motomedialab/laravel-redis-driver
