-module ActionView
- # = Action View Cache Helper
- module Helpers
- module CacheHelper
- # This helper exposes a method for caching fragments of a view
- # rather than an entire action or page. This technique is useful
- # caching pieces like menus, lists of newstopics, static HTML
- # fragments, and so on. This method takes a block that contains
- # the content you wish to cache.
- #
- # The best way to use this is by doing key-based cache expiration
- # on top of a cache store like Memcached that'll automatically
- # kick out old entries. For more on key-based expiration, see:
- # http://37signals.com/svn/posts/3113-how-key-based-cache-expiration-works
- #
- # When using this method, you list the cache dependency as the name of the cache, like so:
- #
- # <% cache project do %>
- # <b>All the topics on this project</b>
- # <%= render project.topics %>
- # <% end %>
- #
- # This approach will assume that when a new topic is added, you'll touch
- # the project. The cache key generated from this call will be something like:
- #
- # views/projects/123-20120806214154/7a1156131a6928cb0026877f8b749ac9
- # ^class ^id ^updated_at ^template tree digest
- #
- # The cache is thus automatically bumped whenever the project updated_at is touched.
- #
- # If your template cache depends on multiple sources (try to avoid this to keep things simple),
- # you can name all these dependencies as part of an array:
- #
- # <% cache [ project, current_user ] do %>
- # <b>All the topics on this project</b>
- # <%= render project.topics %>
- # <% end %>
- #
- # This will include both records as part of the cache key and updating either of them will
- # expire the cache.
- #
- # ==== Template digest
- #
- # The template digest that's added to the cache key is computed by taking an md5 of the
- # contents of the entire template file. This ensures that your caches will automatically
- # expire when you change the template file.
- #
- # Note that the md5 is taken of the entire template file, not just what's within the
- # cache do/end call. So it's possible that changing something outside of that call will
- # still expire the cache.
- #
- # Additionally, the digestor will automatically look through your template file for
- # explicit and implicit dependencies, and include those as part of the digest.
- #
- # The digestor can be bypassed by passing skip_digest: true as an option to the cache call:
- #
- # <% cache project, skip_digest: true do %>
- # <b>All the topics on this project</b>
- # <%= render project.topics %>
- # <% end %>
- #
- # ==== Implicit dependencies
- #
- # Most template dependencies can be derived from calls to render in the template itself.
- # Here are some examples of render calls that Cache Digests knows how to decode:
- #
- # render partial: "comments/comment", collection: commentable.comments
- # render "comments/comments"
- # render 'comments/comments'
- # render('comments/comments')
- #
- # render "header" => render("comments/header")
- #
- # render(@topic) => render("topics/topic")
- # render(topics) => render("topics/topic")
- # render(message.topics) => render("topics/topic")
- #
- # It's not possible to derive all render calls like that, though. Here are a few examples of things that can't be derived:
- #
- # render group_of_attachments
- # render @project.documents.where(published: true).order('created_at')
- #
- # You will have to rewrite those to the explicit form:
- #
- # render partial: 'attachments/attachment', collection: group_of_attachments
- # render partial: 'documents/document', collection: @project.documents.where(published: true).order('created_at')
- #
- # === Explicit dependencies
- #
- # Some times you'll have template dependencies that can't be derived at all. This is typically
- # the case when you have template rendering that happens in helpers. Here's an example:
- #
- # <%= render_sortable_todolists @project.todolists %>
- #
- # You'll need to use a special comment format to call those out:
- #
- # <%# Template Dependency: todolists/todolist %>
- # <%= render_sortable_todolists @project.todolists %>
- #
- # The pattern used to match these is /# Template Dependency: ([^ ]+)/, so it's important that you type it out just so.
- # You can only declare one template dependency per line.
- #
- # === External dependencies
- #
- # If you use a helper method, for example, inside of a cached block and you then update that helper,
- # you'll have to bump the cache as well. It doesn't really matter how you do it, but the md5 of the template file
- # must change. One recommendation is to simply be explicit in a comment, like:
- #
- # <%# Helper Dependency Updated: May 6, 2012 at 6pm %>
- # <%= some_helper_method(person) %>
- #
- # Now all you'll have to do is change that timestamp when the helper method changes.
