Modifying file cache key storage to include key

[nmu-bouharri]

As it stands, Laravel only retains a hash of the provided key when using the file cache. Unfortunately, this guarantees that the cache keys shown in the UI are unrecognizable. I'm not sure if there is already a way in Laravel to keep the key with the cached value, but I could not find anything in a cursory source code search.

I also noticed that Cache UI checks for a key in the serialized array value before defaulting to the filename, so I wonder if the package could include some code to enable key storage with each file in the cache. I'm not sure how it would work, but I imagine it's possible to extend and replace the FileStore class or something.

Hi, yes — that’s indeed the default behavior in Laravel.

To achieve what you described, it would likely require implementing a custom cache driver where the logic for storing and retrieving items could be extended to also persist the original key, making it easier to inspect and manage.
