CacheFu is a collection of products which aggregate and simplify various caching settings, speeding up Plone sites using a combination of memory, proxy, and browser caching. CacheFu can be used by itself or with Squid, Varnish, and/or Apache. Configuration files can be generated for Squid, Varnish, Squid-behind-Apache, Varnish-behind-Apache, and Apache cache proxy (if you are using a non-caching Apache by itself or just Zope-only, no extra configuration files are needed).
Starting with version 1.2, the CacheFu products are now distributed as python eggs. The central product is Products.CacheSetup which when installed via easy_install or buildout takes care of pulling in the rest of the products from the bundle.
The full CacheFu bundle includes:
- http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.CacheSetup <-- Start Here
- http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.CMFSquidTool
- http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.PageCacheManager
- http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Products.PolicyHTTPCacheManager
The auto-generated proxy configs are now distributed separately in the CacheFu-Extras download:
CacheFu has been tested with Plone 2.5+ and Plone 3.0. For earlier Plone versions, try the CacheFu 1.0.3 bundle instead.
New Features in CacheFu 1.2
- Products all eggified.
- Minor bug fix to Varnish proxy cache configs
New CacheFu Manual and Web Caching Reference
A new CacheFu Manual and a Web Caching Reference is nearing completion. Stay tuned for an announcement.
