namespace NpgsqlRest; /// /// A named caching policy that an endpoint can opt into via the @cache_profile comment annotation. /// Profiles let you maintain multiple distinct caching policies (different backends, expirations, key shapes, /// or bypass conditions) within a single application. /// /// At the C# / library level a is fully configured: its is an /// instance you provide. The NpgsqlRestClient configuration layer reads JSON profiles /// (with a "Type" string and optional "Enabled": true) and constructs profile instances on your behalf. /// The core library itself stays interface-only and does not know about Memory/Redis/Hybrid backends — it just /// stores the resolved . /// /// Profile resolution at startup: /// - Each endpoint with @cache_profile name looks up name in . /// - Unknown names cause startup to fail with a single error listing all unresolved references and the offending endpoints. /// - Endpoints without @cache_profile use (the root cache). /// public class CacheProfile { /// /// The cache backend instance for this profile.
