I have a little probleme with my cache block.

This is my build function : 

return [ '#markup' => time(), '#cache' => [ 'max-age' => 10 ] ];

I found this specification for block cache. 

 /** * {@inheritdoc} */ public function getCacheMaxAge() { return 20; }

Because in parent class we have $max_age = Cache::PERMANENT;

So, when I'm connected my rendered cache refresh each 10 seconds. But when I'm a anonymous user my rendered block never change.

I don't find the solution.

Big pipe isn't install, I have aggregations css and js but I don't have max age in admin/config/development/performance.

Finnaly I want a block without cache because this block will rendered message with close button. When the user click on the close button, I set a cookie for return an empty bluid in my block.

Do you have an idea ?

Thank you

  • In your custom block template, are you rendering the {{ content }} variable in full? If not, cache tags may not be bubbling up. Commented Feb 13, 2017 at 16:57

You don't have to worry about the values which are set for cache max-age in other places, because when these are merged the lower time that you have set wins.

But you can't control with max-age the page cache for anonymous users. You have to use \Drupal::service('page_cache_kill_switch')->trigger(); in the block build method to disable the page cache or you can simply uninstall the module Internal Page Cache if you plan to use the block on all pages.

but I don't have max age in admin/config/development/performance

You should set this to the same max-age to control the browser cache and proxies.

Cache Control Override plugin intends to solve the problem with an anonymous user cache control. After installation, both methods will work:

return array( '#markup' => date("Y-m-d H:i:s"), '#cache' => array('max-age' => 10). );

or

public function getCacheMaxAge() { return 10; }
