Hi. I'm trying to setup a new project using yii3. Actually, I'm trying to implement a caching mechanism similar to how

Yii::$app->db->cache(function() use ($query)  { return $query->one() } ...)

used to work in yii2 and I get this error. The Yii3 Redis cache handler is the one that serializes the value before saving into cache.
Is this expected? I guess it is because of the DB connection parameter?

Edit: Now I see that in yii2 only the raw results were cached, and then the models would be populated. Is there a better way other that creating an ActiveQuery and calling ->populate($rows)?
