Rails cache sweeper fails on create

157 views Asked by At

I have a controller where:

caches_action :show
cache_sweeper :the_model_sweeper, :only => [:update, :destroy]

and sweeper:

observe TheModel

def after_save(the_model)
  expire_cache(the_model)
end

def after_destroy(the_model)
  expire_cache(the_model)
end

def expire_cache(the_model)
  expire_action :controller => '/the_model', :action => 'show'
end

and am getting:

ActionController::RoutingError (No route matches {:controller=>"/the_model", :action=>"show"}):

The problem I'm guessing is becuase the sweeper is called after_save, when on a new record there will be nothing to destroy, even though I have specifically said for it only to sweep on update or delete.

(I have obviously renamed the model to "The Model" for example purposes)

The problem was due to using ActiveAdmin, and forgetting (doh...) to add :only => [:update, :destroy] to the active admin config for that model
