kss.plugin.cacheability is a transitional package that brings you
cacheable KSS requests for version 1.4 and trunk, today.
The work was fully sponsored by Zest Software.
Cacheability allows you to use GET KSS requests, instead of the POST
request, that KSS currently uses.
GET requests in KSS are planned and hopefully arrive in the next
major version. Meanwhile this package provides transitional access to
this feature.
The plugin javascript uses some unpublished parts of the KSS core. We
will need to provide a clean API as well, for similar tasks in the next
version. So the plugin code should not be considered as an example, but I
encourage its usage. I will provide an upgrade path, once the feature
lands in KSS.
To summarize the main usage, you can make a server action as GET request
this way:
css:event {
action-client: cacheability-serverAction;
cacheability-serverAction-url: actionName;
}
The future syntax for this will be (once it lands in trunk):
css:event {
action-server: actionName method(GET);
}
POST records will always stay the default method in KSS, as the GET
method you must only use with such server actions that are guaranteed to
make no changes to the content.
Enjoy! Please report any problems or feel free to propose enhancements.
Thanks to Zest for sponsorship.
