caches_page

[Kris Kohlstedt]

I'm looking for something that has similar functionality to the
caches_page directive provided by rails but that caches a seperate based
on the params that are passed into the request. For example if I have a
request http://www.foo.com/mycontroller?id=1 and a request
http://www.foo.com/mycontroller?id=2 I'd like a seperate cache for each
of those requests. Based on my experimentation with caches_page it
looks like all I get by default is a cache for the first of those 2
requests that is called.

Ideas? Is there a simple way for caches_page to take into account the
params that are passed in?

Instead of calling http://www.foo.com/mycontroller?id=2, call
http://www.foo.com/mycontroller/index/2. Rails will place '2' into params[:id],
and it will cache the page into public/mycontroller/index/2.html

That is assuming you haven't deleted this line from the end of your
config/routes.rb:

map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
