S*mantic Forms form definition pages work to a degree similar to templates, in that they have some explanatory text in <noinclude> tags and the actual form definition in <includeonly> tags. Currently this form definition is parsed every time a form is requested. I would like to cache it. As I understood it, I can do that by setting a property on the form definition page's ParserOutput object. So my idea was, whenever there is a cache miss on the form definition page I parse the part in <includeonly> tags and cache it along with the page. Then, when a form is actually to be displayed I get the form definition text from cache if available. > Keep in mind that the same article may be parsed with different > configurations (thus separate cache keys) or may not get cached at all.

All I wanted was an "Ok, this is outdated, we have to reparse", but I guess it is not that easy. :) Is there somewhere (apart from the code) were I can read up on how exactly caching works in MW? >> * There seems to be no elegant way to recognize if the text to parse is >> the actual Article content. > > You generally should not make such assumptions as, indeed, many bajillions > of things may get parsed, plenty of which are not standalone articles or > pages. I noticed. :) Cheers, Stephan _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
