module ActionController
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')

# Allows you to specify controller-wide key prefixes for
# cache fragments. Pass either a constant +value+, or a block
# which computes a value each time a cache key is generated.
#
# For example, you may want to prefix all fragment cache keys
# with a global version identifier, so you can easily
# invalidate all caches.
#
# class ApplicationController
# fragment_cache_key "v1"
# end
#
# When it's time to invalidate all fragments, simply change
# the string constant. Or, progressively roll out the cache
# invalidation using a computed value:
#
# class ApplicationController
# fragment_cache_key do
# @account.id.odd? ? "v1" : "v2"
# end

# +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).
