💖 NAME 💖

expireGititCache — bestie, this one sends out cache expiration requests for your gitit pages, no cap ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

expireGititCache gititUrl page1 [page2 ...]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so picture this: you've got a wiki running on gitit, and some of ur pages are sitting in a cache being all lazy and stale 😭. expireGititCache is the girl who walks in and is like "ma'am, ur time is up 💅" — it fires off a request to a gitit-powered wiki asking it to expire the cache for whichever pages you name.

like, say gititUrl is set to "http://localhost:5001" and page1 is "Main page.page"? then expireGititCache goes and executes a POST request to the URL "http://localhost:5001/_expire/Front page". that's the whole vibe 🎀

✨ RETURNS ✨

so like, the return status of expireGititCache is giving:

  • 0 — everything slayed 💅 the pages' caches were successfully expired, or honestly they weren't even cached in the first place so there was nothing to do 🤷‍♀️
  • 1 — you showed up with fewer than two arguments. girl. we need more than that 🙈
  • 3 — the wiki engine responded with something that was not 200 OK to the request. rude of it 💀
  • 5 — gititUrl could not be parsed. it's giving unreadable, bestie 😭
