Description

On Android the network requests coming from RN are always cached for 10 minutes, in most cases this behavior is ok but for content that can be modified often like the reusable blocks, we should have a way to bypass the cache.

For this purpose, I've added a param to the fetch request function that is exposed to RN and also add a constant with the endpoint patterns that shouldn't be cached when a network request is made. For now we'll only disable caching for the blocks (reusable blocks) endpoint.

How has this been tested?

  1. Add a reusable block to a post/page (via the web version)
  2. Open the post in the mobile app
  3. Observe that the content matches what is displayed in both native and web versions
  4. Edit the content of the reusable block via the web version and save the changes
  5. Open the post again in the mobile app
  6. Observe that the content matches what is displayed (including the changes) in both native and web versions

Good approach since the bridge code on iOS does not contain enableCaching in the attached bridge code snippet and in the line below.

func fetchRequest(_ path: String, resolver: @escaping RCTPromiseResolveBlock, rejecter: @escaping RCTPromiseRejectBlock) {

Yep, actually, I was surprised that we have the caching feature only on Android 🤔 .

Thanks for these changes @fluiddot I tested the behavior utilizing the WP Android PR with a local metro server ( the generated APK on the PR does not support reusable blocks since it's still devOnly ). Making changes to the reusable block's content on the web resulted in instant changes in the post when it was opened on mobile. I left a few comments I want to hear your thoughts on.

Thank you very much @jd-alexander for the review ❤️ !

Oh true, the reusable block is still devOnly so it can only be tested in development mode. I have a test branch (try/reusable-block-feature) with the block enabled so I'm going to update it with all the recent changes so we could test this via an installable build, I'll let you know when it's ready 💨 .

I left a few comments I want to hear your thoughts on.

Awesome! I've just pushed a commit with changes regarding your comments 👍 .

I updated the test branch with the latest changes in case you want to use an installable build for testing.

Thank you very much @jd-alexander for the review ❤️ !

More than happy to 😄

I updated the test branch with the latest changes in case you want to use an installable build for testing.

Thanks! I am going to have a look 🙇🏾
