Hello,

Hi Johan,

Can you not just delete the cache files on disk ?

We tried this but encountered problems, so we're currently populating the nginx cache from python in the cases where we need purging instead of pulling stuff trough nginx.

Cheers

Hey guys (and girls)

We're using fastcgi_cache/proxy_cache quite extensively at our sites, and are in dire need of purging content from our cache. Explicit files will do in our case, but I clearly see the point of wildcards. The only config option I can think of (except modifying parts related to proxy_cache and fastcgi_cache such as proxy_cache_methods) is some kind of "allow_purge" ACL that is similar to the allow-directive already found in Nginx.

We can offer funding for such a feature if feasible assuming this is open sourced and preferably ends up in upstream if Igor sees fit. Please contact me off list for further discussion if you're interested!
