Tools and config for memcache related caching
Project description
Introduction
This package combines the features from lovely.memcached and plone.memoize.ram. It provides a decorator and utility for Memcaches at EEA. The decorator allows you set dependencies known by eea.cache
Contents
Main features
Extends and overrides plone.memoize cache adapters to work with memcache
Provides an extended @cache decorator that supports:
cache lifetime override per method
dependencies string in order to bulk invalidate cache
auto-invalidation of cache when ObjectModifiedEvent is triggered
Possibility to manually invalidate cache via URL.
Install
Add eea.cache to your eggs and zcml section in your buildout and re-run buildout:
eggs = ... eea.cache zcml = ... eea.cache eea.cache-overrides
You can download a sample buildout from https://github.com/eea/eea.cache/tree/master/buildouts/plone4
Install eea.cache within Site Setup > Add-ons
Start memcache:
$ bin/memcached start
Dependencies
Source code
- Latest source code (Zope 2 compatible):
Cache decorator
>>> def key(method, self): ... return method.__name__ >>> from eea.cache import cache >>> @cache(key, dependencies=["frontpage"]) ... def myMethod(num): ... return num*num
Lets clear any running memcache:
>>> from eea.cache.event import InvalidateMemCacheEvent >>> from zope.event import notify >>> notify(InvalidateMemCacheEvent(raw=True, dependencies=['frontpage']))
Our myMethod will now be cached with the key returned from the method ‘key’ and with dependency ‘frontpage’:
>>> myMethod(2) 4 >>> myMethod(3) 4 >>> notify(InvalidateMemCacheEvent(raw=True, dependencies=['frontpage'])) >>> myMethod(3) 9
Cache lifetime
By default your content is cached in memcache for one hour (3600 seconds). You can change this by adding an int property within: ZMI > portal_properties > site_properties called memcached_defaultLifetime and set it’s value to 86400 (one day) for example.
Cache lifetime override per key
Starting with eea.cache 5.1 you can also pass a lifetime key with the duration in seconds which will override the defaultLifetime either given from the portal property or the default one from lovely.memcached of 3600 seconds:
ex: in order to cache the result only for 4 minutes >>> @cache(key, dependencies=["frontpage"], lifetime=240) ... def myMethod(num): ... return num*num
Invalidate cache
If you use cache decorator for BrowserView methods or directly on Zope objects methods cache will be automatically invalidated when object is modified (ObjectModifiedEvent is triggered):
>>> from Products.Five.browser import BrowserView >>> class XXX(BrowserView): ... @cache(key) ... def title(self): ... return self.context.title_or_id()
You can disable auto invalidation by providing the auto_invalidate param to @cache decorator:
>>> @cache(key, auto_invalidate=False) ... def title(self): ... return self.context.title_or_id()
memcache.invalidate
In order to manually invalidate memcached cache per object this package provides a browser view called memcache.invalidate. It will invalidate all memcached methods associated with current object’s UID:
http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/memcache.invalidate
You can also manually invalidate related items and back references:
http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/memcache.invalidate/relatedItems http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/memcache.invalidate/backRefs
By default this method can be called by users with these roles:
Editor
CommonEditor
Owner
Manager
varnish.invalidate
In order to manually invalidate memcached cache per object this package provides a browser view called varnish.invalidate. It will invalidate all memcached methods associated with current object’s UID:
http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/varnish.invalidate
You can also manually invalidate related items and back references:
http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/varnish.invalidate/relatedItems http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/varnish.invalidate/backRefs
By default this method can be called by users with these roles:
Editor
CommonEditor
Owner
Manager
cache.invalidate
In order to manually invalidate cache (memcached and varnish) per object this package provides a browser view called cache.invalidate. It will call memcache.invalidate and varnish.invalidate:
http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/cache.invalidate
You can also manually invalidate related items and back references:
http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/cache.invalidate/relatedItems http://localhost:2020/Plone/front-page/cache.invalidate/backRefs
By default this method can be called by users with these roles:
Editor
CommonEditor
Owner
Manager
cache.settings
There is also a Cache Tab per object where you can manually select which cache to invalidate. By default, you can invalidate memcache and varnish. You also have the possibility to invalidate memcache and/or varnish for related items and also fo back references.
This form can be extended with more options. For a more detailed example see eea.pdf
configure.zcml:
<adapter zcml:condition="installed eea.cache" factory=".behavior.ExtraBehavior" /> <adapter zcml:condition="installed eea.cache" factory=".behavior.ExtraSettings" name="eea.pdf.cache.extender" />
behavior.py:
# Model class IExtraSettings(model.Schema): """ Extra settings """ pdf = schema.Bool( title=_(u"PDF"), description=_(u"Invalidate latest generated PDF file"), required=False, default=False ) # Behaviour class ExtraBehavior(object): implements(IExtraSettings) adapts(IPDFAware) def __init__(self, context): self.context = context @property def pdf(self): """ PDF """ return False @pdf.setter def pdf(self, value): """ Invalidate last generated PDF? """ if not value: return removePdfFiles() # Form class ExtraSettings(extensible.FormExtender): adapts(IPDFAware, ILayer, SettingsForm) def __init__(self, context, request, form): self.context = context self.request = request self.form = form def update(self): """ Extend form """ self.add(IExtraSettings, prefix="extra") self.move('pdf', after='varnish', prefix='extra')
