mylar/cherrypy/lib/caching.py

"""
CherryPy implements a simple caching system as a pluggable Tool. This tool tries
to be an (in-process) HTTP/1.1-compliant cache. It's not quite there yet, but
it's probably good enough for most sites.

In general, GET responses are cached (along with selecting headers) and, if
another request arrives for the same resource, the caching Tool will return 304
Not Modified if possible, or serve the cached response otherwise. It also sets
request.cached to True if serving a cached representation, and sets
request.cacheable to False (so it doesn't get cached again).

If POST, PUT, or DELETE requests are made for a cached resource, they invalidate
(delete) any cached response.

Usage
=====

Configuration file example::

    [/]
    tools.caching.on = True
    tools.caching.delay = 3600

You may use a class other than the default
:class:`MemoryCache<cherrypy.lib.caching.MemoryCache>` by supplying the config
entry ``cache_class``; supply the full dotted name of the replacement class
as the config value. It must implement the basic methods ``get``, ``put``,
``delete``, and ``clear``.

You may set any attribute, including overriding methods, on the cache
instance by providing them in config. The above sets the
:attr:`delay<cherrypy.lib.caching.MemoryCache.delay>` attribute, for example.
