Cachetool recipe

Installing

Install with composer

composer require deployer/recipes --dev

Add to your deploy.php

require 'recipe/cachetool.php';

Configuration

• cachetool (optional): accepts a string with the unix socket or ip address to php5-fpm. If cachetool is not given, then the application will look for a cachetool.yml file and read the configuration from there.

  set('cachetool', '/var/run/php5-fpm.sock');
  // or
  set('cachetool', '127.0.0.1:9000');

You can also specify different cachetool settings for each host:

host('staging')
    ->set('cachetool', '127.0.0.1:9000');
    
host('production')
    ->set('cachetool', '/var/run/php5-fpm.sock');

By default, if no cachetool parameter is provided, this recipe will fallback to the global setting.

Tasks

• cachetool:clear:apc – clears APC system cache
• cachetool:clear:apcu – clears APCu cache
• cachetool:clear:opcache – resets the contents of the opcode cache

Usage

Since APC/APCu and OPcache deal with compiling and caching files, they should be executed right after the symlink is created for the new release:

after('deploy:symlink', 'cachetool:clear:opcache');
// or
after('deploy:symlink', 'cachetool:clear:apc');
// or
after('deploy:symlink', 'cachetool:clear:apcu');
