🚀 MongoDB Cache Support & Refactor! 🥭

✨ What’s New

• MongoDB Backend Added!
  You can now use MongoDB as a cache backend via a simple connection string.

  • New MongoCache class in cachetic/extensions/mongodb.py
  • Just use a URL like mongodb://localhost:27017/dbname?collection=collname!

• Protocol-Driven Design
  Introduced a CacheProtocol (PEP 544) for cache backends, making it easier to extend and type-check.

• Cleaner URL Masking
  Moved the password-masking logic to cachetic/utils/hide_url_password.py for safe logging.

• Type Safety
  Added DocumentParam TypedDict for MongoDB document structure.

🧪 Tests

• Added test_mongo_cache.py for MongoDB cache integration.
• Added test_redis_cache.py for Redis cache integration.
• Fixtures for both Redis and MongoDB connection strings in conftest.py.

🛠️ Dependency Updates

• Added pymongo, str-or-none, and dnspython to requirements.
• Updated pyproject.toml with optional MongoDB dependencies.

🧹 Refactoring & Housekeeping

• Removed the old _hide_url_password from __init__.py.
• Added missing __init__.py files for new submodules.

🚀 Cachetic v0.3.0: Type-Safe Caching Revolution! ✨

🎯 What's New

This is a major rewrite that transforms Cachetic into a modern, type-safe caching library!

🔥 Breaking Changes & Improvements

🏗️ Complete API Redesign

• 📝 New requirement: All caches now use pydantic.TypeAdapter[T] for type safety
• 🔄 Renamed fields: cache_ttl → default_ttl, cache_prefix → prefix
• 🧹 Simplified serialization: Everything goes through TypeAdapter (no more complex type handling)

📚 Documentation Overhaul

📖 Completely rewritten README with:

• ✨ Clean, modern examples
• 🎯 Focus on type safety and simplicity
• 📋 Better organized sections
• 🛠️ Comprehensive configuration guide

🧪 Test Suite Modernization

🔬 Brand new test suite:

• ✅ Tests for all README examples
• 🧽 Clean, isolated test setup
• 📦 Comprehensive type coverage
• 🚀 Better test organization

📦 Dependency Updates

⬆️ Refreshed dependencies:

• 🔓 Relaxed version constraints
• 📈 Updated to latest compatible versions
• 🛡️ Better security posture

💔 Breaking Changes

⚠️ Migration required for existing users:

Before (v0.2.x):

cache = Cachetic[str](object_type=str, cache_ttl=3600, cache_prefix="app")

After (v0.3.0):

cache = Cachetic[str](
    object_type=pydantic.TypeAdapter(str), 
    default_ttl=3600, 
    prefix="app"
)

🎉 Why This Matters

✨ Better Developer Experience:

• 🔒 Full type safety with generics
• 🎯 Simpler, more consistent API
• 📝 Crystal clear documentation
• 🚀 Modern Python patterns

This release sets the foundation for a robust, type-safe caching experience that scales with your applications!
