\$cache\_lifetime {#variable.cache.lifetime}
|
||||
=================
|
||||
|
||||
This is the length of time in seconds that a template cache is valid.
|
||||
Once this time has expired, the cache will be regenerated.
|
||||
|
||||
- `$caching` must be turned on (either
|
||||
Smarty::CACHING\_LIFETIME\_CURRENT or
|
||||
Smarty::CACHING\_LIFETIME\_SAVED) for `$cache_lifetime` to have any
|
||||
purpose.
|
||||
|
||||
- A `$cache_lifetime` value of -1 will force the cache to never
|
||||
expire.
|
||||
|
||||
- A value of 0 will cause the cache to always regenerate (good for
|
||||
testing only, to disable caching a more efficient method is to set
|
||||
[`$caching`](#variable.caching) = Smarty::CACHING\_OFF).
|
||||
|
||||
- If you want to give certain templates their own cache lifetime, you
|
||||
could do this by setting [`$caching`](#variable.caching) =
|
||||
Smarty::CACHING\_LIFETIME\_SAVED, then set `$cache_lifetime` to a
|
||||
unique value just before calling [`display()`](#api.display) or
|
||||
[`fetch()`](#api.fetch).
|
||||
|
||||
If [`$force_compile`](#variable.force.compile) is enabled, the cache
|
||||
files will be regenerated every time, effectively disabling caching. You
|
||||
can clear all the cache files with the
|
||||
[`clear_all_cache()`](#api.clear.all.cache) function, or individual
|
||||
cache files (or groups) with the [`clear_cache()`](#api.clear.cache)
|
||||
function.
