[Q] can I cache JSON response - El Forum - 09-04-2008
[eluser]vlad_ci[/eluser]
most of the stuff I send to my client is JSON data,
so wanted to ask if I could use CI's caching somehow
to cache JSON responses (because some of them are not user
specific)
thank you

Sure, make each JSON call a seperate function in your controllers.
Then at the beginning of the function, call the caching method.

Thank you, what about

from the CI documentation. Since my JSON's are not 'viewes'
will

Then no it will not work the current CI way. The easiest way to enable it is to make a json.php file in the views folder with only one variable in it( <?=$json?> for example).
Then have all your json calls send the json data to that view. As long as the URL is different a different cache file will be generated even if you are using thh same view file for all json calls.

ok,
I understand now.
Having different URLs allows to use the same view
for different 'data' and still cache them uniquely
thank you
