How to cache related data in YII?

Question

Yii

I use caching in the model like this:
$posts = Post::model()->cache(1000)->findAll();
$posts = Post::model()->cache(1000)->with('author')->findAll();
In the first case, everything in $posts will be cached, but $posts->author is no longer there... What to do? You can of course get confused and do it through
Yii::app()->cache->set()and Yii::app()->cache->get()
But I want to do it through Active Record ... But how?

Answer 1

you should not do it through active record. Move the functionality of getting data into a separate component and use the cache there.

Answer 2

Why not? What is bad practice?
