Laravel cache outside of laravel

Question

I've currently got laravel illuminate database and eloquent working outside of laravel.

I'm now trying to get the cache working as well.

This is what I have altogether now.

<?php

require dirname(dirname(__DIR__)) . '/vendor/autoload.php';
require dirname(__DIR__) . '/config.php';

use Illuminate\Database\Capsule\Manager as DB;
use Illuminate\Cache\CacheManager as CacheManager;

$dbc = new DB;

$dbc->addConnection(array(
    'driver'    => 'mysql',
    'host'      => DB_HOST,
    'database'  => DB_NAME,
    'username'  => DB_USER,
    'password'  => DB_PASSWORD,
    'charset'   => 'utf8',
    'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
    'prefix'    => '',
));

# Set the default fetch mode for all queries
$dbc->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_CLASS);

# Set up the cache
$container = $dbc->getContainer();

$container['config']['cache.driver'] = 'memcached';
$container['config']['cache.memcached'] = array('host' => '127.0.0.1', 'port' => 11211, 'weight' => 100);

$container->offsetGet('config')->offsetSet('cache.driver', 'array');

$cacheManager = new CacheManager($container);

$dbc->setCacheManager($cacheManager);

$dbc->setAsGlobal();
$dbc->bootEloquent();

global $dbc;

This is not working for me, despite having memcached and php module memcached installed and working.

UPDATE I get no errors with this configuration. I am just not seeing anything coming into memcached. I've tested with the following line of code.

$dbc->table('users')->limit(10)->cacheTags(array('people', 'authors'))->remember(10)->get();

Whilst watching on the box with

[root@localhost vagrant]# telnet 127.0.0.1 11211
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to 127.0.0.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
stats items
END

FYI, the caching module of the DB package has been discontinued in Laravel 5. So even if you can get this to work, I would still advise you not to use it. — Joseph Silber, Mar 18 '15 at 19:47

This may help someone using the caching facade in Laravel 5.8, in my case I am using file caching for a Codeigniter project.

use \Illuminate\Cache\CacheManager;
use \Illuminate\Filesystem\Filesystem;

$container = $capsule->getContainer();
$container['config']['cache.stores.file'] = array(
    'driver' => 'file',
    'path' => \APPPATH . 'cache/eloquent' // use your own cache directory
);
$container['config']['cache.default'] = 'file';
$container['files'] = new Filesystem();
$cacheManager = new CacheManager( $container ); 
$app->instance( 'cache', $cacheManager);
