Cache decorator utilizing Beaker. Caches action or other
function that returns a pickle-able object as a result.
Optional arguments:
key
None - No variable key, uses function name as key
“cache_default” - Uses all function arguments as the key
string - Use kwargs[key] as key
list - Use [kwargs[k] for k in list] as key
expire
Time in seconds before cache expires, or the string “never”.
Defaults to “never”
type
Type of cache to use: dbm, memory, file, memcached, or None for
Beaker’s default
query_args
Uses the query arguments as the key, defaults to False
cache_headers
A tuple of header names indicating response headers that
will also be cached.
invalidate_on_startup
If True, the cache will be invalidated each time the application
starts or is restarted.
cache_response
Determines whether the response at the time beaker_cache is used
should be cached or not, defaults to True.
Note
When cache_response is set to False, the cache_headers
argument is ignored as none of the response is cached.
If cache_enabled is set to False in the .ini file, then cache is
disabled globally.
