module ActionController #:nodoc:
module Caching
# Fragment caching is used for caching various blocks within templates without caching the entire action as a whole. This is useful when
# certain elements of an action change frequently or depend on complicated state while other parts rarely change or can be shared amongst multiple
# parties. The caching is doing using the cache helper available in the Action View. A template with caching might look something like:
#
# <b>Hello <%= @name %></b>
# <% cache do %>
# All the topics in the system:
# <%= render :partial => "topic", :collection => Topic.find(:all) %>
# <% end %>
#
# This cache will bind to the name of the action that called it, so if this code was part of the view for the topics/list action, you would
# be able to invalidate it using <tt>expire_fragment(:controller => "topics", :action => "list")</tt>.
#
# This default behavior is of limited use if you need to cache multiple fragments per action or if the action itself is cached using
# <tt>caches_action</tt>, so we also have the option to qualify the name of the cached fragment with something like:
#
# <% cache(:action => "list", :action_suffix => "all_topics") do %>
#
# That would result in a name such as "/topics/list/all_topics", avoiding conflicts with the action cache and with any fragments that use a
# different suffix. Note that the URL doesn't have to really exist or be callable - the url_for system is just used to generate unique
# cache names that we can refer to when we need to expire the cache.
#
# The expiration call for this example is:
#
# expire_fragment(:controller => "topics", :action => "list", :action_suffix => "all_topics")

# * Regexp: Will destroy all the matched fragments, example:
# %r{pages/\d*/notes}
# Ensure you do not specify start and finish in the regex (^$) because
# the actual filename matched looks like ./cache/filename/path.cache
# Regexp expiration is only supported on caches that can iterate over
