🌟 Enterprise Feature 🌟 This feature is bundled with GraphQL-Enterprise.
With caching configured, here are a few more things to keep in mind while queries are running.
You can set skip_object_cache: true in your query context: { ... } to disable ObjectCache for a given query.
By default, ObjectCache gathers the objects “behind” each GraphQL object in the result, then uses their fingerprints as cache keys. To manually register another object with the cache while a query is running, call Schema::Object.cacheable_object(...), passing the object and context. For example:
field :team_member_count, Integer, null: true do
argument :name, String, required: true
end
def team_member_count(name:)
team = Team.find_by(name: name)
if team
# Register this object so that the cached result
# will be invalidated when the team is updated:
Types::Team.cacheable_object(team, context)
team.members.count
else
nil
end
end
(When the cache is disabled, cacheable_object(...) is a no-op.)
While the cache is running, it logs some data in a Hash as context[:object_cache]. For example:
result = MySchema.execute(...)
pp result.context[:object_cache]
{
key: "...", # the cache key used for this query
write: true, # if this query caused an update to the cache
ttl: 15, # the smallest `ttl:` value encountered in this query (used for this query's result)
hit: true, # if this query returned a cached result
public: false, # true or false, whether this query used a public cache key or a private one
messages: ["...", "..."], # status messages about the cache's behavior
objects: Set(...), # application objects encountered during the query
uncacheable: true, # if ObjectCache found a reason that this query couldn't be cached (see `messages: ...` for reason)
}
