    ],
```

#### Include both Caching class in the necessary controllers.

[](#include-both-caching-class-in-the-necessary-controllers)

```

```

#### Create a constructor function to initialize the Caching object and to set default caching parameters..

[](#create-a-constructor-function-to-initialize-the-caching-object-and-to-set-default-caching-parameters)

```
public function __construct(){
  $this->caching = new Caching();
  $this->defaultCacheParams = [
      'publisherId' => ,
      'cdnTTLs' => [
        'max-age' => 3 * 60,
        'stale-while-revalidate' => 5 * 60,
        'stale-if-error' => 4 * 60 * 60,
      ],
      'browserTTLs' => [
        'max-age' => 60,
      ],
  ];
}
```

#### Call the function using the created object. Pass all necessary details that will be used for setting cache headers to the function as an associative array.

[](#call-the-function-using-the-created-object-pass-all-necessary-details-that-will-be-used-for-setting-cache-headers-to-the-function-as-an-associative-array)

The argument is an associative array with following keys:

1. **publisherId**
2. **cdnTTLs**: Corresponds to Surrogate-Control values.
    1. **max-age**: This controls how long the page is considered fresh in the Database.
    2. **stale-while-revalidate**: During this period, the page is served from CDN, but updated in the background.
    3. **stale-if-error**: During this time, the page is served from CDN in case the backend server crashes for whatever reason.
3. **browserTTLs**: Corresponds to Cache-Control values
    1. **max-age**
4. **locationId***(not required for story page)*: home or section-id
5. **storyGroup***(not required for story page)*: top or stack-id
6. **storiesToCache**:
    1. Array of all collections under a key for each of them, if driven through collections.
    2. Array of all the stories that have to be cached, if driven through stories.
7. **storiesFrom***(required for collection driven page)*: collection

```
return response(view("home_page", $this->toView([])))
        ->withHeaders($this->caching->buildCacheHeaders(array_merge($this->defaultCacheParams, ["locationId" => "home", "storyGroup" => "top", "storiesToCache" => $storiesToCache])));

return response(view("section_page", $this->toView([])))
        ->withHeaders($this->caching->buildCacheHeaders(array_merge($this->defaultCacheParams, ["locationId" => $params["section-id"], "storyGroup" => $params["story-group"], "storiesToCache" => $storiesToCache])));

return response(view("story_page", $this->toView([])))
        ->withHeaders($this->caching->buildCacheHeaders(array_merge($this->defaultCacheParams, ["storiesToCache" => $storiesToCache])));

return response(view("collection_page", $this->toView([])))
        ->withHeaders($this->caching->buildCacheHeaders(array_merge($this->defaultCacheParams, ["locationId" => "", "storiesFrom"=> "collection", "storiesToCache" => $storiesToCache])));
```
