Gache

In simple terms

Very simple cache for Go programs: keeps data in memory or a file and forgets it automatically when it expires. Zero dependencies and easy to use.

Technical details

Generic New[T](&Options{Path, Lifetime}) library: in-memory when Path is empty or JSON/gob-persisted with atomic tmp+Rename writes. Configurable TTL, out-of-lock expiration hook and 0755/0644 permissions. Updated to Go 1.26 with hardening against corrupt files.
