Requirements

• QueuedJobs module (http://github.com/nyeholt/silverstripe-queuedjobs)

Usage

• Define cache config - use the caches.conf.sample file as a guide
• Add the SimpleCachePublisher extension to a publishable data type and publish your page.

Controller:
  extensions:
    - SimpleCacheControllerExtension
  
SiteTree:
  extensions:
    - SimpleCachePublisherExtension

• Change .htaccess to point to simplecache/frontend-cache.php instead of framework/main.php
• Works in a similar way to static publisher, but uses a cache abstraction layer to allow for storing cached data in memcache or apc, or other cache platform.

On-request page caching

To use this module in a cache-on-request manner, please review the GitHub Wiki - in short

• create a {project}/caches.conf.php based on simplecache/caches.conf.php
• add appropriate _ss_environment.php configuration pointing at {project}/caches.conf.php
• update your .htaccess file with RewriteRule .* simplecache/frontend-cache.php?url=%1&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
• ensure the top level directories exist for the configured cache locations
