Details

Localisation cache configuration. Associative array with keys:

• class - The class to use. May be overridden by extensions.
• store - The location to store cache data. May be 'files', 'db', 'array' or 'detect'.
  • If set to "files", data will be in CDB files in the directory specified by $wgCacheDirectory . This is significantly faster than storing data into the database (see discussion)
  • If set to "db", data will be stored to the database.
  • If set to "array", data will be in PHP files that store static arrays in the directory specified by $wgCacheDirectory . This is an experimental option.

    This is the fastest option when using PHP-FPM and OPcache (without opcache.file_cache_only), because OPcache will store these arrays. In other configurations (HHVM or opcache.file_cache_only) this mode has no benefit over "files".

  • If set to "detect", CDB files will be used if $wgCacheDirectory is set, otherwise the database will be used.
• storeClass - The class name for the underlying storage. If set to a class name, it overrides the store setting above. Built-in options: LCStore interface on doc.wikimedia.org
• storeDirectory - If the store class puts its data in files, this is the directory it will use. If this is false, $wgCacheDirectory will be used.
• manualRecache - Set this to true to disable cache updates on web requests. Use maintenance/rebuildLocalisationCache.php instead.
