Creates a TimeCache, adds entries with validity in ms, checks existence, and verifies expiration.

import TimeCache from 'time-cache'; const cache = new TimeCache(); cache.put('key1', 'value1', 10000); console.log(cache.has('key1')); // true setTimeout(() => { console.log(cache.has('key1')); // false (expired) }, 11000); cache.put('key2', 'value2', 5000); console.log(cache.get('key2')); // 'value2'
