Pre-render methods
Pre-rendering can be configured to run automatically, or you can manually pre-render a website by using a URL.
Administrator access: To pre-render a website, you must have administrator access to the library that contains the site area.
Automatically pre-rendering a website
Pre-rendering can be run according to the cacher settings specified for the WCM WCMConfigService service as part of the pre-rendering configuration.
Manually pre-rendering a website
Pre-rendering can also be initiated through the URL interface. For example:
http://host_name:port_number/wps/wcm/connect?MOD=Cacher&SRV=cacheSite&sitearea=sitearea_name&library=library_name
| Service | Required Parameters | Optional Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| SRV=cacheSiteInitializes pre-rendering for the site area with a delay as given (in seconds). | sitearea=site area name |
DELAY=<delay>LIBRARY=<library> Note: If no library is specified, the default library is used, as specified by the defaultLibrary property in the WCM WCMConfigService service. |
| SRV=flushSiteCacheClears (flushes) the site cache. Deletes all pre-rendered data. | sitearea=site area name |
LIBRARY=<library> Note: If no library is specified, the default library is used, as specified by the defaultLibrary property in the WCM WCMConfigService service. |
| SRV=flushPageCacheFlushes the page from the site cache. The site area and page are determined from the request URL. | ||
| No SRV specifiedThe CacherModule attempts to retrieve the page from the cache. |
Pre-rendering individual content items
You can also pre-render individual content items by using the following URL:
http://host_name:port_number/wps/wcm/connect/library_name/site_area_name/content?MOD=Cacher
Note
- To pre-render individual content items, the site area that is specified in the URL must either be a site area set in connect.moduleconfig.cacher.task.siteareas in the WCM WCMConfigService service, or you must have previously manually pre-rendered the site area using "SRV=cacheSite" so that the site area already exists in the location you pre-render to.
