🚨 THIS PACKAGE HAS BEEN ABANDONED 🚨

We don't use this package anymore in our own projects — we switched to Nginx with FastCGI Caching — and cannot justify the time needed to maintain it anymore. That's why we have chosen to abandon it. Feel free to fork our code and maintain your own copy or use one of the many alternatives. We suggest using silber/page-cache instead as it is fairly similar.

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require swisnl/laravel-static-request-cache

Setup

Add the middleware to the end of your Http/Kernel.php middleware array.

protected $middleware = [
   \Swis\Laravel\StaticRequestCache\Http\Middleware\CacheMiddleware::class,
];

Add the following snippet into your .htaccess

# Rewrite to html cache if it exists and the request is for a static page
# (no url query params and only get requests)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} GET
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !.*=.*
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/static/html%{REQUEST_URI} -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$  /static/html%{REQUEST_URI} [L]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} GET
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !.*=.*
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !index.php
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/static/html%{REQUEST_URI}/index.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /static/html%{REQUEST_URI}/index.html [L]

Disabling

If you want to disable the cache for some reason (the content might be dynamic), you can use the StaticRequestCache singleton in the IoC:

public function __construct(StaticRequestCache $staticRequestCache)
{
    $this->staticRequestCache = $staticRequestCache;
    $this->staticRequestCache->disable();
}

Or use the Facade:

StaticRequestCache::disable();

Please note that this package also checks for Cache-control headers and caches accordingly. You can change this behaviour in the config by editing non_cacheable_cache_control_values.

Clear the files

To clear all the files manually you can use an artisan command.

$ php artisan static-html-cache:clear
