Allow cache_it* decorators to provide a way to cache instance methods about redis-simple-cache HOT 2 OPEN

Hi SantjagoCorkez,

I think you can't just strip self out from the cache_key, since different instances probably will return different values even for the same method. I believe this is the default use case.

Probably in your case you need something different from this, so I think you can create your own decorator around cache_it decorator. If you need help for doing this, please let me know.

Well, in my case the solution just strips out the first function arg. No matter what is it: self, cls or any generic argument as in staticmethod. And this guarantees no side effects in my case, because instance's self contains no information that could cause difference between instance of class A(B) and class C(B), where B inits only logger.

As I've said, that could be specially marked in documentation as 'think twice when you use this argument'.

As for more generic solution this could be also implemented as strip_args=0 argument for decorator and pickle.dumps(args[strip_args:]) in code. That could help when one needs to exclude some N-first args of a function from cache entry's hash key.
