Interface to be implemented by @ Configuration classes annotated with @EnableCaching that wish or need to specify explicitly how caches are resolved and how keys are generated for annotation-driven cache management. Consider extending CachingConfigurerSupport, which provides a stub implementation of all interface methods.

See @EnableCaching for general examples and context; see cacheManager(), cacheResolver() and keyGenerator() for detailed instructions.

public interface CachingConfigurer {
Return the cache manager bean to use for annotation-driven cache management. A default CacheResolver will be initialized behind the scenes with this cache manager. For more fine-grained management of the cache resolution, consider setting the CacheResolver directly.

Implementations must explicitly declare @Bean, e.g.

@Configuration
@EnableCaching
public class AppConfig extends CachingConfigurerSupport {
    @Bean // important!
    @Override
    public CacheManager cacheManager() {
        // configure and return CacheManager instance
    }
    // ...
}
See @EnableCaching for more complete examples.

@Nullable CacheManager cacheManager();
Return the CacheResolver bean to use to resolve regular caches for annotation-driven cache management. This is an alternative and more powerful option of specifying the CacheManager to use.

If both a cacheManager() and #cacheResolver() are set, the cache manager is ignored.

Implementations must explicitly declare @Bean, e.g.

@Configuration
@EnableCaching
public class AppConfig extends CachingConfigurerSupport {
    @Bean // important!
    @Override
    public CacheResolver cacheResolver() {
        // configure and return CacheResolver instance
    }
    // ...
}

@Nullable CacheResolver cacheResolver();
Return the key generator bean to use for annotation-driven cache management. Implementations must explicitly declare @Bean, e.g.
@Configuration
@EnableCaching
public class AppConfig extends CachingConfigurerSupport {
    @Bean // important!
    @Override
    public KeyGenerator keyGenerator() {
        // configure and return KeyGenerator instance
    }
    // ...

@Nullable KeyGenerator keyGenerator();
Return the CacheErrorHandler to use to handle cache-related errors.

By default,SimpleCacheErrorHandler is used and simply throws the exception back at the client.

Implementations must explicitly declare @Bean, e.g.

@Configuration
@EnableCaching
public class AppConfig extends CachingConfigurerSupport {
    @Bean // important!
    @Override
    public CacheErrorHandler errorHandler() {
        // configure and return CacheErrorHandler instance
    }
    // ...

@Nullable CacheErrorHandler errorHandler(); }
