module ActionController #:nodoc:
module Caching
# Fragment caching is used for caching various blocks within
# views 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 done using
# the cache helper available in the Action View. See
# ActionView::Helpers::CacheHelper for more information.
#
# While it's strongly recommended that you use key-based cache
# expiration (see links in CacheHelper for more information),
# it is also possible to manually expire caches. For example:
#
# expire_fragment("name_of_cache")
module Fragments
# Given a key (as described in expire_fragment), returns
# a key suitable for use in reading, writing, or expiring a
# cached fragment. All keys are prefixed with views/ and uses
# ActiveSupport::Cache.expand_cache_key for the expansion.
def fragment_cache_key(key)
ActiveSupport::Cache.expand_cache_key(key.is_a?(Hash) ? url_for(key).split("://").last : key, :views)
end
# Writes content to the location signified by
# key (see expire_fragment for acceptable formats).
def write_fragment(key, content, options = nil)

instrument_fragment_cache :write_fragment, key do
content = content.to_str
cache_store.write(key, content, options)

# Reads a cached fragment from the location signified by key
# (see expire_fragment for acceptable formats).
def read_fragment(key, options = nil)
return unless cache_configured?
key = fragment_cache_key(key)
instrument_fragment_cache :read_fragment, key do
result = cache_store.read(key, options)

# Check if a cached fragment from the location signified by
# key exists (see expire_fragment for acceptable formats)

# Removes fragments from the cache.
#
# +key+ can take one of three forms:
#
# * String - This would normally take the form of a path, like
# pages/45/notes.
# * Hash - Treated as an implicit call to +url_for+, like
# {:controller => "pages", :action => "notes", :id => 45}
# * Regexp - Will remove any fragment that matches, so
# %r{pages/\d*/notes} might remove all notes. Make sure you
# don't use anchors in the regex (^ or $) because
# the actual filename matched looks like
# ./cache/filename/path.cache. Note: Regexp expiration is
# only supported on caches that can iterate over all keys (unlike
# memcached).
#
# +options+ is passed through to the cache store's delete
# method (or delete_matched, for Regexp keys.)
