#' Create a file cache object
#'
#' This creates a file cache which is to be used by sass for caching generated
#' .css files.
#'
#' @param dir The directory in which to store the cached files.
#' @param max_size The maximum size of the cache, in bytes. If the cache grows
#'   past this size, the least-recently-used objects will be removed until it
#'   fits within this size.
#' @param max_age The maximum age of objects in the cache, in seconds. The
#'   default is one week.
#'
#' @seealso [sass_cache_get()], [sass_cache_context_dir()], [FileCache]
#' @return A [FileCache] object.
#'
#' @examples
#' \dontrun{
#' # Create a cache with the default settings
#' cache <- sass_file_cache(sass_cache_context_dir())
#'
#' # Clear the cache
#' cache$reset()
#' }
#'
#' @export
sass_file_cache <- function(
  dir,
  max_size = 40 * 1024 ^ 2,
  max_age = Inf
) {
  FileCache$new(dir, max_size = max_size, max_age = max_age)
}

#' Create a file cache object
#'
#' A file cache object is a key-file store that saves the values as files in a
#' directory on disk. The objects are files on disk. They are stored and
#' retrieved using the `get_file()`, `get_content()`, `set_file()`, and
#' `set_content()` methods. Objects are automatically pruned from the cache
#' according to the parameters `max_size`, `max_age`, `max_n`, and `evict`.
#'
#' @section Cache pruning:
#'
#'   Cache pruning occurs when `set_file()` or `set_content()` is called, or it
#'   can be invoked manually by calling `prune()`.
#'
#'   The disk cache will throttle the pruning so that it does not happen on
#'   every call to `set_file()` or `set_content()`, because the filesystem
#'   operations for checking the status of files can be slow. Instead, it will
#'   prune once in every 20 calls to `set_file()` or `set_content()`, or if at
#'   least 5 seconds have elapsed since the last prune occurred, whichever is
#'   first. These parameters are currently not customizable, but may be in the
#'   future.
#'
#'   When a pruning occurs, if there are any objects that are older than
#'   `max_age`, they will be removed.
#'
#'   The `max_size` and `max_n` parameters are applied to the cache as a whole,
#'   in contrast to `max_age`, which is applied to each object individually.
#'
#'   If the number of objects in the cache exceeds `max_n`, then objects will be
#'   removed from the cache according to the eviction policy, which is set with
#'   the `evict` parameter. Objects will be removed so that the number of items
#'   is `max_n`.
#'
#'   If the size of the objects in the cache exceeds `max_size`, then objects
#'   will be removed from the cache. Objects will be removed from the cache so
#'   that the total size remains under `max_size`. Note that the size is
#'   calculated using the size of the files, not the size of disk space used by
#'   the files --- these two values can differ because of files are stored in
#'   blocks on disk. For example, if the block size is 4096 bytes, then a file
#'   that is one byte in size will take 4096 bytes on disk.
#'
#'   Another time that objects can be removed from the cache is when
#'   `get_file()` or `get_content()` is called. If the target object is older
#'   than `max_age`, it will be removed and the cache will report it as a
#'   missing value.
#'
#' @section Eviction policies:
#'
#'   If `max_n` or `max_size` are used, then objects will be removed from the
#'   cache according to an eviction policy. The available eviction policies are:
#'
#'   \describe{ \item{`"lru"`}{ Least Recently Used. The least recently used
#'   objects will be removed. This uses the filesystem's mtime property. When
#'   "lru" is used, each time `get_file()` or `get_content()` is called, it will
#'   update the file's mtime. } \item{`"fifo"`}{ First-in-first-out. The oldest
#'   objects will be removed. } }
#'
#'   Both of these policies use files' mtime. Note that some filesystems
#'   (notably FAT) have poor mtime resolution. (atime is not used because
#'   support for atime is worse than mtime.)
#'
#' @section Sharing among multiple processes:
#'
#'   The directory for a FileCache can be shared among multiple R processes. To
#'   do this, each R process should have a FileCache object that uses the same
#'   directory. Each FileCache will do pruning independently of the others, so
#'   if they have different pruning parameters, then one FileCache may remove
#'   cached objects before another FileCache would do so.
#'
#'   Even though it is possible for multiple processes to share a FileCache
#'   directory, this should not be done on networked file systems, because of
#'   slow performance of networked file systems can cause problems. If you need
#'   a high-performance shared cache, you can use one built on a database like
#'   Redis, SQLite, mySQL, or similar.
#'
#'   When multiple processes share a cache directory, there are some potential
#'   race conditions. For example, if your code calls `exists(key)` to check if
#'   an object is in the cache, and then call `get_file(key)`, the object may be
#'   removed from the cache in between those two calls, and `get_file(key)` will
#'   throw an error. Instead of calling the two functions, it is better to
#'   simply call `get_file(key)`, and use `tryCatch()` to handle the error that
#'   is thrown if the object is not in the cache. This effectively tests for
#'   existence and gets the object in one operation.
#'
#'   It is also possible for one processes to prune objects at the same time
#'   that another processes is trying to prune objects. If this happens, you may
#'   see a warning from `file.remove()` failing to remove a file that has
#'   already been deleted.
