Module: Arturo::FeatureCaching

Defined in:
lib/arturo/feature_caching.rb

Overview

To be extended by Arturo::Feature if you want to enable in-memory caching. NB: Arturo’s feature caching only works when using Arturo::Feature.to_feature or when using the helper methods in Arturo and Arturo::FeatureAvailability. NB: if you have multiple application servers, you almost certainly want to clear this cache after each request:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  after_filter { Arturo::Feature.clear_feature_cache }
end

Alternatively, you could redefine Arturo::Feature.feature_cache to use a shared cache like Memcached.
