module ActionController #:nodoc:
# Caching is a cheap way of speeding up slow applications by keeping the result of calculations, renderings, and database calls
# around for subsequent requests. Action Controller affords you three approaches in varying levels of granularity: Page, Action, Fragment.
#
# You can read more about each approach and the sweeping assistance by clicking the modules below.
#
# Note: To turn off all caching and sweeping, set Base.perform_caching = false.

# Page caching is an approach to caching where the entire action output of is stored as a HTML file that the web server
# can serve without going through the Action Pack. This can be as much as 100 times faster than going through the process of dynamically
# generating the content. Unfortunately, this incredible speed-up is only available to stateless pages where all visitors
# are treated the same. Content management systems -- including weblogs and wikis -- have many pages that are a great fit
# for this approach, but account-based systems where people log in and manipulate their own data are often less likely candidates.
#
# Specifying which actions to cache is done through the <tt>caches</tt> class method:
#
# class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
# caches_page :show, :new
# end
#
# This will generate cache files such as weblog/show/5 and weblog/new, which match the URLs used to trigger the dynamic
# generation. This is how the web server is able pick up a cache file when it exists and otherwise let the request pass on to
# the Action Pack to generate it.
#
# Expiration of the cache is handled by deleting the cached file, which results in a lazy regeneration approach where the cache
# is not restored before another hit is made against it. The API for doing so mimics the options from url_for and friends:
#
# class WeblogController < ActionController::Base
# def update
# List.update(params[:list][:id], params[:list])
# expire_page :action => "show", :id => params[:list][:id]
# redirect_to :action => "show", :id => params[:list][:id]
# end
# end
#
# Additionally, you can expire caches using Sweepers that act on changes in the model to determine when a cache is supposed to be
# expired.
#
# == Setting the cache directory
#
# The cache directory should be the document root for the web server and is set using Base.page_cache_directory = "/document/root".
# For Rails, this directory has already been set to RAILS_ROOT + "/public".
#
# == Setting the cache extension
#
# By default, the cache extension is .html, which makes it easy for the cached files to be picked up by the web server. If you want
# something else, like .php or .shtml, just set Base.page_cache_extension.

# Action caching is similar to page caching by the fact that the entire output of the response is cached, but unlike page caching,
# every request still goes through the Action Pack. The key benefit of this is that filters are run before the cache is served, which
# allows for authentication and other restrictions on whether someone is allowed to see the cache. Example:
#
# class ListsController < ApplicationController
# before_filter :authenticate, :except => :public
# caches_page :public
# caches_action :show, :feed
# end
#
# In this example, the public action doesn't require authentication, so it's possible to use the faster page caching method. But both the
# show and feed action are to be shielded behind the authenticate filter, so we need to implement those as action caches.
#
# Action caching internally uses the fragment caching and an around filter to do the job. The fragment cache is named according to both
# the current host and the path. So a page that is accessed at http://david.somewhere.com/lists/show/1 will result in a fragment named
# "david.somewhere.com/lists/show/1". This allows the cacher to differentiate between "david.somewhere.com/lists/" and
# "jamis.somewhere.com/lists/" -- which is a helpful way of assisting the subdomain-as-account-key pattern.
#
# Different representations of the same resource, e.g. <tt>http://david.somewhere.com/lists</tt> and <tt>http://david.somewhere.com/lists.xml</tt>
# are treated like separate requests and so are cached separately. Keep in mind when expiring an action cache that <tt>:action => 'lists'</tt> is not the same
# as <tt>:action => 'list', :format => :xml</tt>.

# Fragment caching is used for caching various blocks within templates 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 doing using the cache helper available in the Action View. A template with caching might look something like:
#
# <b>Hello <%= @name %></b>
# <% cache do %>
# All the topics in the system:
# <%= render :partial => "topic", :collection => Topic.find(:all) %>
# <% end %>
#
# This cache will bind to the name of action that called it. So you would be able to invalidate it using
# <tt>expire_fragment(:controller => "topics", :action => "list")</tt> -- if that was the controller/action used. This is not too helpful
# if you need to cache multiple fragments per action or if the action itself is cached using <tt>caches_action</tt>. So instead we should
# qualify the name of the action used with something like:
#
# <% cache(:action => "list", :action_suffix => "all_topics") do %>
#
# That would result in a name such as "/topics/list/all_topics", which wouldn't conflict with any action cache and neither with another
# fragment using a different suffix. Note that the URL doesn't have to really exist or be callable. We're just using the url_for system
# to generate unique cache names that we can refer to later for expirations. The expiration call for this example would be
# <tt>expire_fragment(:controller => "topics", :action => "list", :action_suffix => "all_topics")</tt>.
#
# == Fragment stores
#
# In order to use the fragment caching, you need to designate where the caches should be stored. This is done by assigning a fragment store
# of which there are four different kinds:
#
# * FileStore: Keeps the fragments on disk in the +cache_path+, which works well for all types of environments and shares the fragments for
# all the web server processes running off the same application directory.
# * MemoryStore: Keeps the fragments in memory, which is fine for WEBrick and for FCGI (if you don't care that each FCGI process holds its
# own fragment store). It's not suitable for CGI as the process is thrown away at the end of each request. It can potentially also take
# up a lot of memory since each process keeps all the caches in memory.
# * DRbStore: Keeps the fragments in the memory of a separate, shared DRb process. This works for all environments and only keeps one cache
# around for all processes, but requires that you run and manage a separate DRb process.
# * MemCacheStore: Works like DRbStore, but uses Danga's MemCache instead.
# Requires the ruby-memcache library: gem install ruby-memcache.
#
# Configuration examples (MemoryStore is the default):
#
# ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :memory_store
# ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :file_store, "/path/to/cache/directory"
# ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :drb_store, "druby://localhost:9192"
# ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = :mem_cache_store, "localhost"
# ActionController::Base.fragment_cache_store = MyOwnStore.new("parameter")

#
# class ListsController < ApplicationController
# caches_action :index, :show, :public, :feed
# cache_sweeper :list_sweeper, :only => [ :edit, :destroy, :share ]
