Load static assets uncached and purge automation
Summary
Caching: Advanced Topics Address a common pain point that frequently adds tension and confusion in early stages of the customer journey
- provide example custom script for loading uncached static assets
- provide example quicksilver script to auto purge after a given workflow such as
deploy - [ ] Todo: consider inclusion of additional QS example script that uses pantheon_clear_edge_all(); combined with passthru('drush cc all'); to achieve purging all caches automatically after deploying to live env (vs purging 1 file alone via pantheon_clear_edge_paths)
Attribution for the example scripts should go to @kyletaylored (thank you so much Kyle!)

todo: consider inclusion of additional QS example script that uses pantheon_clear_edge_all(); combined with passthru('drush cc all'); to achieve purging all caches automatically after deploying to live env (vs purging 1 file alone via pantheon_clear_edge_paths)
Consider including an example that purges a given static asset manually on the fly w/Terminus, for example
terminus drush SITENAME.ENV -- eval "pantheon_clear_edge_paths(['/path/to/file.json'])"
The Drush and WP-CLI workarounds are worth publishing in our docs. We get asked this question by developers often enough.
