Cacheable is a set of maintained Node.js caching packages, built on Keyv, with support for different cache types like in-memory caching, HTTP request caching (RFC compliant), file metadata caching, and Redis-oriented options. It is useful when you need scalable caching across different layers in Node.js apps, including common frameworks via Cache Manager and related utilities.
Project status

2026-05-27
2026-05-27This release (2026-05-27) bumps eight packages in the cacheable monorepo, adding new cache capabilities and inspection hooks. The main functional changes are maxTtl support for Cacheable and CacheableMemory, plus substantial feature additions to @cacheable/node-cache (inspection methods, events, structuredClone-based cloning, and interval-based expiration checking). There is also a build-tool migration from tsup to tsdown and pnpm 11 across the affected packages.
Features2026-05-16
2026-05-16This release updates @cacheable/net to 2.0.8 with a fix for incorrect request body handling when using FormData and related body types. It also updates @cacheable/memory to 2.0.9 with README clarification that setting lruSize=0 disables LRU. The underlying repo diff also includes CI/test-infra tweaks and additional regression tests for body coercion.
2026-05-07
2026-05-07This release primarily patches node-cache for prototype pollution and expired-key handling, and fixes Cacheable TTL cascading behavior for set and setMany. It also upgrades a number of dependencies across the monorepo (Keyv/sqlite, lru-cache, qified, vitest stack, doc tooling).
BreakingSecurity2026-03-26
2026-03-27This release spans multiple packages in the cacheable monorepo, mainly consisting of dependency upgrades (undici, flatted, hashery), TypeScript typing fixes, and NodeCache internal changes around stats tracking. For @cacheable/node-cache, the release includes breaking changes related to hookified integration and removal of the maxKeys limit feature from NodeCacheStore.
BreakingSecurity2026-03-17
2026-03-17This release primarily consists of dependency updates across the monorepo, plus a fix related to running the @cacheable/net test suite against a local mockhttp server. It also moves some shared core dev dependencies to mono-hoist, reducing duplication across package-level package.json files.
2026-02-27
2026-02-27This release adds support for a per-call `nonBlocking` override to `getOrSet`, and includes multiple dependency upgrades across the monorepo. It also updates Node.js CI/matrix to Node 24 and makes changes to `@cacheable/node-cache` TTL handling.
BreakingFeatures2026-02-06
2026-02-06This release primarily upgrades several dependencies across the monorepo, including vitest, keyv, hookified, and undici. It also adds functional changes to CacheableMemory's LRU cleanup behavior and enhances error handling in the getOrSet utility.
2025-01-17
2026-01-17This release primarily upgrades test and internal dependencies (vitest to 4.0.17, qified to 0.6.0, hookified to 1.15.0) across multiple packages. In addition, the node-cache README was updated to describe breaking changes from the v1 API to v2 (NodeCacheStore changes).
Breaking2026-01-09
2026-01-09This release primarily updates the @cacheable/node-cache package to change its storage implementation to use Keyv. It also bumps multiple development dependencies (Vitest, Biome) and a few runtime-related library versions such as normalize-url, body-parser, and wrangler.
BreakingFeatures2025-12-26
2025-12-26This release appears to be entirely dependency and tooling version bumps across several workspace packages. The release notes primarily call out upgrades to keyv (in cache-manager), vitest, biome, lru-cache, hashery, and hookified, but the code diff shows additional related updates and a couple of package version bumps.
