module ActionController #:nodoc:
  module Caching
    # Sweepers are the terminators of the caching world and responsible for expiring caches when model objects change.
    # They do this by being half-observers, half-filters and implementing callbacks for both roles. A Sweeper example:
    #
    #   class ListSweeper < ActionController::Caching::Sweeper
    #     observe List, Item
    #
    #     def after_save(record)
    #       list = record.is_a?(List) ? record : record.list
    #       expire_page(:controller => "lists", :action => %w( show public feed ), :id => list.id)
    #       expire_action(:controller => "lists", :action => "all")
    #       list.shares.each { |share| expire_page(:controller => "lists", :action => "show", :id => share.url_key) }
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    # The sweeper is assigned in the controllers that wish to have its job performed using the <tt>cache_sweeper</tt> class method:
    #
    #   class ListsController < ApplicationController
    #     caches_action :index, :show, :public, :feed
    #     cache_sweeper :list_sweeper, :only => [ :edit, :destroy, :share ]
    #   end
    #
    # In the example above, four actions are cached and three actions are responsible for expiring those caches.
    #
    # You can also name an explicit class in the declaration of a sweeper, which is needed if the sweeper is in a module:
    #
    #   class ListsController < ApplicationController
    #     caches_action :index, :show, :public, :feed
    #     cache_sweeper OpenBar::Sweeper, :only => [ :edit, :destroy, :share ]
    #   end
