# 内容哈希文件缓存模式

使用 SHA-256 内容哈希作为缓存键,缓存昂贵的文件处理结果(PDF 解析、文本提取、图像分析)。与基于路径的缓存不同,此方法在文件移动/重命名后仍然有效,并在内容更改时自动失效。

## 何时激活

* 构建文件处理管道时(PDF、图像、文本提取)
* 处理成本高且同一文件被重复处理时
* 需要一个 `--cache/--no-cache` CLI 选项时
* 希望在不修改现有纯函数的情况下为其添加缓存时

## 核心模式

### 1. 基于内容哈希的缓存键

使用文件内容(而非路径)作为缓存键:

```python
import hashlib
from pathlib import Path

_HASH_CHUNK_SIZE = 65536  # 64KB chunks for large files

def compute_file_hash(path: Path) -> str:
    """SHA-256 of file contents (chunked for large files)."""
    if not path.is_file():
        raise FileNotFoundError(f"File not found: {path}")
    sha256 = hashlib.sha256()
    with open(path, "rb") as f:
        while True:
            chunk = f.read(_HASH_CHUNK_SIZE)
            if not chunk:
                break
            sha256.update(chunk)
    return sha256.hexdigest()
```

**为什么使用内容哈希?** 文件重命名/移动 = 缓存命中。内容更改 = 自动失效。无需索引文件。

### 2. 用于缓存条目的冻结数据类

```python
from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass(frozen=True, slots=True)
class CacheEntry:
    file_hash: str
    source_path: str
    document: ExtractedDocument  # The cached result
```

### 3. 基于文件的缓存存储

每个缓存条目都存储为 `{hash}.json` —— 通过哈希实现 O(1) 查找,无需索引文件。

```python
import json
from typing import Any

def write_cache(cache_dir: Path, entry: CacheEntry) -> None:
    cache_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
    cache_file = cache_dir / f"{entry.file_hash}.json"
    data = serialize_entry(entry)
    cache_file.write_text(json.dumps(data, ensure_ascii=False), encoding="utf-8")

def read_cache(cache_dir: Path, file_hash: str) -> CacheEntry | None:
    cache_file = cache_dir / f"{file_hash}.json"
    if not cache_file.is_file():
        return None
    try:
        raw = cache_file.read_text(encoding="utf-8")
        data = json.loads(raw)
        return deserialize_entry(data)
    except (json.JSONDecodeError, ValueError, KeyError):
        return None  # Treat corruption as cache
