- # === Automatic Collection Caching
+ # === Collection Caching
#
- # When rendering collections such as:
+ # When rendering a collection of objects that each use the same partial, a `cached`
+ # option can be passed.
+ # For collections rendered such:
#
- # <%= render @notifications %>
- # <%= render partial: 'notifications/notification', collection: @notifications %>
+ # <%= render partial: 'notifications/notification', collection: @notifications, cached: true %>
#
- # If the notifications/_notification partial starts with a cache call as:
+ # The `cached: true` will make Action View's rendering read several templates
+ # from cache at once instead of one call per template.
#
- # <% cache notification do %>
- # <%= notification.name %>
- # <% end %>
- #
- # The collection can then automatically use any cached renders for that
- # template by reading them at once instead of one by one.
- #
- # See ActionView::Template::Handlers::ERB.resource_cache_call_pattern for
- # more information on what cache calls make a template eligible for this
- # collection caching.
- #
- # The automatic cache multi read can be turned off like so:
+ # Templates in the collection not already cached are written to cache.
#
- # <%= render @notifications, cache: false %>
+ # Works great alongside individual template fragment caching.
+ # For instance if the template the collection renders is cached like:
#
- # === Explicit Collection Caching
- #
- # If the partial template doesn't start with a clean cache call as
- # mentioned above, you can still benefit from collection caching by
- # adding a special comment format anywhere in the template, like:
- #
- # <%# Template Collection: notification %>
- # <% my_helper_that_calls_cache(some_arg, notification) do %>
- # <%= notification.name %>
+ # # notifications/_notification.html.erb
+ # <% cache notification do %>
+ # <%# ... %>
# <% end %>
#
- # The pattern used to match these is <tt>/# Template Collection: (\S+)/</tt>,
- # so it's important that you type it out just so.
- # You can only declare one collection in a partial template file.
+ # Any collection renders will find those cached templates when attempting
+ # to read multiple templates at once.
