Blitz Varnish Purger for Craft CMS
==================================

[](#blitz-varnish-purger-for-craft-cms)

The Varnish Cache Purger allows the [Blitz](https://putyourlightson.com/plugins/blitz) plugin for [Craft CMS](https://craftcms.com/) to intelligently purge cached pages on connected Varnish servers.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Install the plugin using composer and then install it.

```
composer require statikbe/craft-blitz-varnish
php craft plugin/install blitz-varnish

```

You can then select the purger and settings either in the control panel or in `config/blitz.php`.

```
// The purger type to use.
'cachePurgerType' => 'statikbe\blitzvarnish\VarnishCachePurger',
```

Using Varnish Cache with Craft CMS
----------------------------------

[](#using-varnish-cache-with-craft-cms)

How to configure Varnish Cache to work with Craft CMS and your specific project is beyond the scope of this plugin. You can find a basic example configuration [here](https://github.com/statikbe/craft-blitz-varnish/blob/main/example.vcl).
