# NebulexMnesiaAdapter
**Nebulex adapter using Mnesia as storage**
## Installation
If [available in Hex](https://hex.pm/docs/publish), the package can be installed
by adding `nebulex_mnesia_adapter` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[
{:nebulex_mnesia_adapter, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
```
Add the table configuration GenServer on the application module `lib/my_app/application.ex`
```elixir
children =
[
...
{Nebulex.Adapters.Mnesia.Table, nodes: [Node.self()]}
...
]
Supervisor.start_link(childre, opts)
```
It is recommended to set the mnesia directory for disc copies on `config/config.exs`
```elixir
config :mnesia, dir: ~c"/path/to/my/db/folder"
```
If you are pushing this to an environment ensure the folder is created ahead of time,
Mnesia will not create the folder for you
Finally configure your cache module with Nebulex
```elixir
defmodule MyApp.Cache do
use Nebulex.Cache,
otp_app: :my_app,
adapter: Nebulex.Adapters.Mnesia
end
```
The adapter will check for expired keys (where ttl has been reached) every minute by default,
to change the frequency of this check you can add to your config file:
```elixir
config :my_app, MyApp.Cache,
ttl: 300_000
```
This will check every 5 minutes and delete the expired cache keys
