Flush the smarty cache by code.

[David Bucur]

Hi all,

I am synchronizing a module with the main core of prestashop and I need to flush the cache in order for the changes to appear. But I want to do that automatically as the owner of the shop doesn't have enough knowledge of technologies...

 

 

Is there an order like

 

$cache->flush();

 

or similar?

 

Thanks

Hi,

You can disable the smarty cache and normal cache, is the better choice!!!

But I guess the performance will decrease if it has to build every part of the page from scratch

 

 

PD: This flush might happen once a week, not every day.

So, I don't see differences in my shop with or without cache enabled.

Performance depends from your web service principally.

You want to use the following line of code.

Tools::clearSmartyCache();
