Cache output issue

Rails
1

I am using memcached… and have the folllowing in my partial.

<%CACHE.fetch ‘all_categories’ do %>

    Category.all.each do |c|
  • <%= c.name %>
    • end
<%end %>

When I check in the irb console the “all_categories” key does get
populated.
So…CACHE.fetch ‘all_categories’ in irb does output the expected html
list.

But nothing gets outputted in my view.

I am guessing this is some sort of syntax error, what am I doing wrong?

Not sure what is “Category.all” in your “each” enumerator.

Try this, assuming CACHE.featch ‘all_categories’ is returning an array
of
sorts:

<% CACHE.fetch(‘all_categories’).each do |category| %>

  • <%= category.name %>
<% end %>

In the case where the data is already in the cache the block is not
yielded to, so nothing will be output. You could try changing it to a <
%= but I’m not sure that mixes well with yielding to a block or the
case when it is generated fresh data. Why not use cache_fragment ?

The it does work, BUT…somehow the page url is prepended to the cache

for every new page load.

cache fragments are keyed like that by default - you can override
that by passing :controller/:action parameters to make up a path (this
doesn’t need to be a real path in your application - it’s just how it
builds the identifier for the cache entry

You are right…

changing it to the following throws a nasty syntax error.

<%= Rails.cache.fetch “all_catgory” do %>

<% end %>

If I do

<% cache(:key => ‘all_category’) do %>

<%end%>

The it does work, BUT…somehow the page url is prepended to the cache
key so essentially this fragment which is same across the app, misses
for every new page load.
