Cache header support for Silverstripe
=====================================

[](#cache-header-support-for-silverstripe)

The default Silverstripe cache handling sends headers that are not considered cacheable by a proxy such as Cloudflare.

This module allows you to modify this behaviour via configuration, allowing a proxy to cache based on the headers sent by the application.

Useful information
------------------

[](#useful-information)

- [HTTP cache headers in Silverstripe](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/developer_guides/performance/http_cache_headers/)
- [MDN Cache-Control reference](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cache-Control)

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

- Install this extension using composer
- Modify the configuration rules to your requirements
- Test behind your caching proxy to verify Cache-Control and related header values are as expected

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Install via composer:

```
composer require nswdpc/silverstripe-cache-headers
```

Documentation
-------------

[](#documentation)

The priority of caching directives in Silverstripe [are in this order as follows](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/developer_guides/performance/http_cache_headers/#priority):

```
disableCache($force=true)
privateCache($force=true)
publicCache($force=true)
enableCache($force=true)
disableCache()
privateCache()
publicCache()
enableCache()

```

By default this module enables the cache (enableCache), but does not provide the force parameter as `true`.

See [documentation](./docs/en/001_index.md) for a primer on various options, including sample configurations.
