Flushing the features cache on PHP shindig

[Tim Wintle <ti...@teamrubber.com>]

As the Subject implies: How do you flush the feature cache on PHP
shindig.

i.e. I've fixed a bug in one of the js files for a custom feature - how
can I force the changes to be replicated through shindig (It's still
pushing out the old javascript)?

Thanks,

Tim Wintle

Thanks,

Definitely makes sense for it to be cached, but I expected it to be
re-scanned within an hour or so, which didn't seem to happen.

So if you're using a memcache cluster (I'm not...) does everything get
cached to memcached - I'd assumed it would only cache the actual gadgets
etc, and make sure that files like that were available locally in-RAM
(assuming you're using mod-php).

I'm proxying to the gadget server behind a front-end server with fairly
heavy caching anyway, so knowing how long changes will take to be
replicated through to users is becoming a bit of a headache.

The parsing of the features is one of the most expensive things php-shindig
does in a request, thats why the result of it is cached.

Flushing the cache is as simple as
# rm -rf /tmp/shindig
on a *nix machine

or if your using memcache, simple restart that.. or if your on windows, it's
somewhere in C:\Documents And Settings\<user>\Temporary Files (don't hold me
to the last one, i'm not much of a windows nut, but it's in some temp
directory somewhere)
