Installation

Begin by installing this package through Composer. Edit your project's composer.json file to require aheissenberger/laravel-memcachier, _(*2)

    "laravel/framework": "4.1.*",
    "aheissenberger/laravel-memcachier": "dev-master"

'Aheissenberger\MemcachierCache\CacheServiceProvider',

Configuration

Open app/config/cache.php and find the driver key and change to memcached., _(*5)

Replace the existing memcached configuration with this lines with authentification details and server:, _(*6)

    'memcached' => array(
        'username' => 'un', 'password' => 'pw', 'servers' => '1.1.1.1.1', 'weight' => 100
