[FIXED] How to Configure Spring Boot with Memcached

Issue

I am new to Memcached. I need to configure my spring boot application with Memcached.

I researched a lot on the topic but I could not find a documentation for the same. By default Spring boot uses Concurrent HashMap for caching but how do I configure Memcached.

I got this GitHub URL but I am not sure if this is the correct way and if so how do I use the same.

Update

I have used this in my project now https://github.com/bmatthews68/memcached-spring-boot-starter.

Like this

@Override @Cacheable(value = "defaultCache")
    public String customMethof() throws InterruptedException {
        return "Testing";
    }

but when i do a telnet of get defaultCache i get nothing Please help

Solution

Add this to your Gradle Dependencies

compile group: 'net.spy', name: 'spymemcached', version: '2.12.3'
compile('com.btmatthews.springboot:memcached-spring-boot-starter:1.0.0')

On top of your main Spring boot application where you @SpringBootApplicationthis annotation put this

@EnableMemcached

Then in your Component use the following

@Autowired
private MemcachedClient memcachedClient;

memcachedClient.get("...")
