.. _frontend_cache_purging:
|
|
|
|
Frontend cache invalidator
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Many websites use a frontend cache such as Varnish, Squid, Cloudflare or CloudFront to gain extra performance. The downside of using a frontend cache though is that they don't respond well to updating content and will often keep an old version of a page cached after it has been updated.
|
|
|
|
This document describes how to configure Wagtail to purge old versions of pages from a frontend cache whenever a page gets updated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting it up
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Firstly, add ``"wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache"`` to your INSTALLED_APPS:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
INSTALLED_APPS = [
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
"wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache"
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
The ``wagtailfrontendcache`` module provides a set of signal handlers which will automatically purge the cache whenever a page is published or deleted. These signal handlers are automatically registered when the ``wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache`` app is loaded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Varnish/Squid
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Add a new item into the ``WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE`` setting and set the ``BACKEND`` parameter to ``wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.HTTPBackend``. This backend requires an extra parameter ``LOCATION`` which points to where the cache is running (this must be a direct connection to the server and cannot go through another proxy).
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
# settings.py
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE = {
|
|
'varnish': {
|
|
'BACKEND': 'wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.HTTPBackend',
|
|
'LOCATION': 'http://localhost:8000',
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE_LANGUAGES = []
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set ``WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE_LANGUAGES`` to a list of languages (typically equal to ``[l[0] for l in settings.LANGUAGES]``) to also purge the urls for each language of a purging url. This setting needs ``settings.USE_I18N`` to be ``True`` to work. Its default is an empty list.
|
|
|
|
Finally, make sure you have configured your frontend cache to accept PURGE requests:
|
|
|
|
- `Varnish <https://www.varnish-cache.org/docs/3.0/tutorial/purging.html>`_
|
|
- `Squid <https://wiki.squid-cache.org/SquidFaq/OperatingSquid#How_can_I_purge_an_object_from_my_cache.3F>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _frontendcache_cloudflare:
|
|
|
|
Cloudflare
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Firstly, you need to register an account with Cloudflare if you haven't already got one. You can do this here: `Cloudflare Sign up <https://www.cloudflare.com/sign-up>`_
|
|
|
|
Add an item into the ``WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE`` and set the ``BACKEND`` parameter to ``wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.CloudflareBackend``.
|
|
|
|
This backend can be configured to use an account-wide API key, or an API token with restricted access.
|
|
|
|
To use an account-wide API key, find the key `as described in the Cloudflare documentation <https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200167836-Managing-API-Tokens-and-Keys#12345682>`_ and specify ``EMAIL`` and ``API_KEY`` parameters.
|
|
|
|
To use a limited API token, `create a token <https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/200167836-Managing-API-Tokens-and-Keys#12345680>`_ configured with the 'Zone, Cache Purge' permission and specify the ``BEARER_TOKEN`` parameter.
|
|
|
|
A ``ZONEID`` parameter will need to be set for either option. To find the ``ZONEID`` for your domain, read the `Cloudflare API Documentation <https://api.cloudflare.com/#getting-started-resource-ids>`_
|
|
|
|
With an API key:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
# settings.py
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE = {
|
|
'cloudflare': {
|
|
'BACKEND': 'wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.CloudflareBackend',
|
|
'EMAIL': 'your-cloudflare-email-address@example.com',
|
|
'API_KEY': 'your cloudflare api key',
|
|
'ZONEID': 'your cloudflare domain zone id',
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
With an API token:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
# settings.py
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE = {
|
|
'cloudflare': {
|
|
'BACKEND': 'wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.CloudflareBackend',
|
|
'BEARER_TOKEN': 'your cloudflare bearer token',
|
|
'ZONEID': 'your cloudflare domain zone id',
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
.. _frontendcache_aws_cloudfront:
|
|
|
|
Amazon CloudFront
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Within Amazon Web Services you will need at least one CloudFront web distribution. If you don't have one, you can get one here: `CloudFront getting started <https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/>`_
|
|
|
|
Add an item into the ``WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE`` and set the ``BACKEND`` parameter to ``wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.CloudfrontBackend``. This backend requires one extra parameter, ``DISTRIBUTION_ID`` (your CloudFront generated distribution id).
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE = {
|
|
'cloudfront': {
|
|
'BACKEND': 'wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.CloudfrontBackend',
|
|
'DISTRIBUTION_ID': 'your-distribution-id',
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Configuration of credentials can done in multiple ways. You won't need to store them in your Django settings file. You can read more about this here: `Boto 3 Docs <https://boto3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/guide/configuration.html>`_
|
|
|
|
In case you run multiple sites with Wagtail and each site has its CloudFront distribution, provide a mapping instead of a single distribution. Make sure the mapping matches with the hostnames provided in your site settings.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE = {
|
|
'cloudfront': {
|
|
'BACKEND': 'wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.CloudfrontBackend',
|
|
'DISTRIBUTION_ID': {
|
|
'www.wagtail.org': 'your-distribution-id',
|
|
'www.madewithwagtail.org': 'your-distribution-id',
|
|
},
|
|
},
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
In most cases, absolute URLs with ``www`` prefixed domain names should be used in your mapping. Only drop the ``www`` prefix if you're absolutely sure you're not using it (e.g. a subdomain).
|
|
|
|
Azure CDN
|
|
^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
With `Azure CDN <https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/cdn/>`_ you will need a CDN profile with an endpoint configured.

|
|
|
|
Add an item into the ``WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE`` and set the ``BACKEND`` parameter to ``wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.backends.AzureCdnBackend``. This backend requires the following settings to be set:
|
|
|
|
* ``RESOURCE_GROUP_NAME`` - the resource group that your CDN profile is in.
|
|
* ``CDN_PROFILE_NAME`` - the profile name of the CDN service that you want to use.
|
|
* ``CDN_ENDPOINT_NAME`` - the name of the endpoint you want to be purged.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
WAGTAILFRONTENDCACHE = {

Advanced usage
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Invalidating more than one URL per page
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
By default, Wagtail will only purge one URL per page. If your page has more than one URL to be purged, you will need to override the ``get_cached_paths`` method on your page type.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
class BlogIndexPage(Page):
|
|
def get_blog_items(self):
|
|
# This returns a Django paginator of blog items in this section
|
|
return Paginator(self.get_children().live().type(BlogPage), 10)
|
|
|
|
def get_cached_paths(self):
|
|
# Yield the main URL
|
|
yield '/'
|
|
|
|
# Yield one URL per page in the paginator to make sure all pages are purged
|
|
for page_number in range(1, self.get_blog_items().num_pages + 1):
|
|
yield '/?page=' + str(page_number)
|
|
|
|
Invalidating index pages
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Pages that list other pages (such as a blog index) may need to be purged as
|
|
well so any changes to a blog page are also reflected on the index (for example,
|
|
a blog post was added, deleted or its title/thumbnail was changed).
|
|
|
|
To purge these pages, we need to write a signal handler that listens for
|
|
Wagtail's ``page_published`` and ``page_unpublished`` signals for blog pages
|
|
(note, ``page_published`` is called both when a page is created and updated).
|
|
This signal handler would trigger the invalidation of the index page using the
|
|
``PurgeBatch`` class which is used to construct and dispatch invalidation requests.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
# models.py
|
|
from django.dispatch import receiver
|
|
from django.db.models.signals import pre_delete
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.signals import page_published
|
|
from wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.utils import PurgeBatch
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
def blog_page_changed(blog_page):
|
|
# Find all the live BlogIndexPages that contain this blog_page
|
|
batch = PurgeBatch()
|
|
for blog_index in BlogIndexPage.objects.live():
|
|
if blog_page in blog_index.get_blog_items().object_list:
|
|
batch.add_page(blog_index)
|
|
|
|
# Purge all the blog indexes we found in a single request
|
|
batch.purge()
|
|
|
|
|
|
@receiver(page_published, sender=BlogPage)
|
|
def blog_published_handler(instance, **kwargs):
|
|
blog_page_changed(instance)
|
|
|
|
|
|
@receiver(pre_delete, sender=BlogPage)
|
|
def blog_deleted_handler(instance, **kwargs):
|
|
blog_page_changed(instance)
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. _frontend_cache_invalidating_urls:
|
|
|
|
Invalidating URLs
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
The ``PurgeBatch`` class provides a ``.add_url(url)`` and a ``.add_urls(urls)``
|
|
for adding individual URLs to the purge batch.
|
|
|
|
For example, this could be useful for purging a single page on a blog index:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from wagtail.contrib.frontend_cache.utils import PurgeBatch
|
|
|
|
# Purge the first page of the blog index
|
|
batch = PurgeBatch()
|
|
batch.add_url(blog_index.url + '?page=1')
|
|
batch.purge()
|
|
|
|
|
|
