**hashlru inspired**

[hashlru](https://github.com/dominictarr/hashlru) is the **Simpler, faster LRU cache algorithm.**
Please checkout [algorithm](https://github.com/dominictarr/hashlru#algorithm) and [complexity](https://github.com/dominictarr/hashlru#complexity) on hashlru.

ylru extends some features base on hashlru:

- cache value can be **expired**.
- cache value can be **empty value**, e.g.: `null`, `undefined`, `''`, `0`

## Usage

```ts
import { LRU } from 'ylru';

const lru = new LRU(100);
lru.set(key, value);
lru.get(key);

// value2 will be expired after 5000ms
lru.set(key2, value2, { maxAge: 5000 });
// get key and update expired
lru.get(key2, { maxAge: 5000 });
```

### API

## new LRU(max) => lru

initialize a lru object.

### lru.get(key[, options]) => value | null

- `{Number} options.maxAge`: update expire time when get, value will become `undefined` after `maxAge` pass.

Returns the value in the cache.

### lru.set(key, value[, options])

- `{Number} options.maxAge`: value will become `undefined` after `maxAge` pass.
If `maxAge` not set, value will be never expired.

Set the value for key.

### lru.keys()

Get all unexpired cache keys from lru, due to the strategy of ylru, the `keys`' length may greater than `max`.

```ts
const lru = new LRU(3);

lru.set('key 1', 'value 1');
lru.set('key 2', 'value 2');
lru.set('key 3', 'value 3');
lru.set('key 4', 'value 4');

lru.keys(); // [ 'key 4', 'key 1', 'key 2', 'key 3']
// cache: {
//   'key 4': 'value 4',
// }
// _cache: {
//   'key 1': 'value 1',
//   'key 2': 'value 2',
//   'key 3': 'value 3',
// }
```

### lru.reset()

reset a lru object.

```ts
const lru = new LRU(3);

lru.set('key 1', 'value 1');
lru.set('key 2', 'value 2');
lru.set('key 3', 'value 3');
lru.set('key 4', 'value 4');

lru.reset();
// cache: {
// }
// _cache: {
// }

lru.keys().length === 0;
```
