How to use custom cache implementation Leave feedback

GroupDocs.Conversion implements caching to local drive out of the box. For flexibility GroupDocs.Conversion provides and extension point which allows you to cache conversion result in your own way. You can do this by using ICache interface implementation.
Let’s see how to implement some custom cache implementation using this extension point.

Using Redis cache

The following steps should be followed.

Create RedisCache class which implements ICache interface.
Instantiate the RedisCache class.
Declare a delegate which will be used from Converter class as factory of ConverterSettings. In the body of this delegate, instantiate ConverterSettings class and set property setCache with the RedisCache class instance from previous step.
Instantiate Converter class with path to source document and the delegate from the previous step as constructor’s parameters.
Create instance of PdfConvertOptions class.
Call Convert method of Converter instance.

Below is the code that demonstrates how to use custom caching for GroupDocs.Conversion:

package com.groupdocs.conversion.examples.advanced_usage.caching;

import com.groupdocs.conversion.Converter;
import com.groupdocs.conversion.ConverterSettings;
import com.groupdocs.conversion.examples.Constants;
import com.groupdocs.conversion.internal.c.a.ms.System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch;
import com.groupdocs.conversion.options.convert.PdfConvertOptions;

public class HowToUseCustomCacheImplementation {
    /**
    * This example demonstrates how to implement custom cache when rendering document.
    */
    public static void run()
    {
        String outputDirectory = Constants.getOutputDirectoryPath(null);

        RedisCache cache = new RedisCache(/*"sample_"*/);
        ConverterSettings settingsFactory = new ConverterSettings();
        settingsFactory.setCache(cache);

        Converter converter = new Converter(Constants.SAMPLE_DOCX, settingsFactory);
        PdfConvertOptions options = new PdfConvertOptions();

        Stopwatch stopWatch = Stopwatch.startNew();
        converter.convert("converted.pdf", options);
        stopWatch.stop();

        System.out.print(String.format("Time taken on first call to Convert method %d (ms).", stopWatch.getElapsedMilliseconds()));

        stopWatch.restart();
        converter.convert("converted-1.pdf", options);
        stopWatch.stop();

        System.out.print(String.format("Time taken on second call to Convert method %d (ms).", stopWatch.getElapsedMilliseconds()));
    }
}
