Symfony cache:clear in Azure web app with GitHub Actions-CodePudding

The

So I deploy and SSH into the web app and check /home/site/wwwroot/var/cache/staging and voila! all the file are newly created!

This has occurred to me at the beginning, but it really seemed like a kluge. I really wanted a cleaner way to do this. I tried adding the startup command to the deployment script but got this error...

So I cannot add startup command because there is a publish profile.

So why did such a simple problem take so long to answer on SO? More than one suggested answers that were completely irrelevant. All these answers had in common with my issue were words like "cache" and "php".

CodePudding user response：

Based on the above problem statement, we understood that you are looking to clear the web app cache post the deployment.

In order to achieve this, you can add an app settings WEBSITE_LOCAL_CACHE_OPTION=Always which help you in clearing the local cache of the web app.

for any App Service, its related contents (code files, resources etc.) are being hosted in a Shared Content Folder in order to provision all the features of the App Service like Load Balancing etc. So, if there are 2 VMs configure for Load Balancing then there would just one shared location where all the content of the App Service is hosted.

When these Web Apps refer to the Content Folder, there might be chances of Latency issues (although, Azure takes care of most of these issues) which might slow down the performance of the websites a bit. In such Performance-critical application, we can leverage the features of “Azure App Service Local Cache”.

For more information, you refer to this Azure documentation on Azure App Service Local Cache & this blog post as well .
