Cache not updating?

[Memnarch]

Hi, I just tried out your system. It says that it needs round about 2 ours for changes to be distributed(as the cache is held for those 2 hours).

~6Hours ago i hit the following link: https://gitcdn.xyz/repo/Memnarch/TestRepository/master/info.json

Then i commited a change(directly from within the Github page) changing first_version from v1.2 to v1.22, as you can see here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Memnarch/TestRepository/master/info.json

however, the link above has not yet been updated. I am a bit confused right now.

As of now, it has updated. But that took quite long(i don't know when it did, just noticed this morning)

Thanks for the heads up! I'll look into what's happening!

@Memnarch I think this is solved with the last commit. You need to use tags (it means don't use links to master branch), for example:

• https://gitcdn.xyz/repo/Memnarch/TestRepository/v1.2/info.json
• https://gitcdn.xyz/repo/Memnarch/TestRepository/v1.1/info.json

Everytime you update something, you should increase a version of your project. This is awesome also in case if you need to support more versions (backward compatibility).

Thanks EDIT: what will happen IF i use a link to MasterBranch? Will it just take very long as before?

[noo-zh]

@Memnarch Yes, there is no change for a master branch.

Thank you, this will already help me. In case the content of a Tag is updated, it took 1-2h to update, right? Btw the example on the Frontpage still shows an example to get the latest commit. So if that is not updated, shouldn't the example change?

what about https://min.gitcdn.link/repo, I use .link and I commited a change ， It been a day and it still not update，
but when I use https://gitcdn.xyz/repo/ It take about 2 hour to Update， and indeed my link in https://gitcdn.xyz/repo/ is already Updated but https://min.gitcdn.link/repo,..... is still point to the old file So how could update the link on https://min.gitcdn.link/repo,.....

[schme16]

It's correct that the min.gitcdn.* urls cache for as long as possible, in order to use the latest you just visit the normal link, get what it redirected to, and add min. to the front of the url (as in, add it to the subdoain slot).

min isn't really supposed to be used with /repo, eventually it'll be fine, but as of now it caches the repo response too.

Hi @Memnarch, i don't work here, but this happens because the browser cache, to fix that, add a random (any) search query string to the cdn link,

E.x: https://gitcdn.link/cdn/rhpo/life.js/main/src/life.min.js => https://gitcdn.link/cdn/rhpo/life.js/main/src/life.min.js?foo=bar Where foo=bar is a random search query.

That should fix it, have a great day!
