This logic is changing:

  • ✔️ adds a filter.
  • ✔️ keeps empty( $types ).
  • ✔️ keeps the WP_DEBUG check.
  • ✔️ removes the SCRIPT_DEBUG. WP_DEBUG should be enough.
  • ✔️ removes is_admin. I don't know why we started adding is_admin in a few places (in this function, in the SVG filters cache, and webfonts). From the cache management point of view, the way it works now is that admin users won't use the cache, no matter the other conditions. I don't see a reason why, other than perhaps circumventing the issues introduced by the transient (styles were not immediately applied in the front-end). I think it's safe to remove.
  • 🟡 removes REST_REQUEST. I don't know why this logic was present and why we cannot cache REST requests. After some searching, I found the PR that first introduced this logic. The SVG and webfonts PRs came later, so they probably followed what they saw. I asked there for more context.

Got a response from Ari: he says the rest request check was probably for the editor (it was many moons ago, so it's hard for anyone to remember exactly). Going to investigate this a bit.

@geriux and @fluiddot would you be able to test if this PR, as it is, works for you as well? If so, we can safely remove it.

Sure! I will test it and report back 👍

Idea for a potential follow-up: this code currently only caches the whole stylesheet, meaning the one that is enqueued in the front-end (see). I wonder whether it makes sense to cache the others for the editor as well (see) and what effect would it have in the loading times of the editor.

Those will be truthy in our phpunit setup, so a test will not be able to use the cached data in the current state in a test. We could, of course, add a filter to circumvent that 😅

Let's remove this, as it hides caching behaviour changes on local dev, with it not great for unit testing and local profiling.

If we don't have a mechanism to invalidate the cache in development mode, what would you recommend to provide a good developer experience (changes to theme.json are immediately applied)?

Yeah, I discussed this more deeply with @oandregal and probably will give that a try, so we can keep the cache off by default in some scenarios (e.g. during theme development). There might be also legitimate scenarios where plugins want to disable this cache as well (e.g. if they want to change the styles in real time using some of the Global Styles filters), so they could benefit from this filter as well.

In a845e85 I simplified the conditions that allows the cache to be used by removing the ! REST_REQUEST and ! is_admin() checks, so from now on we should be caching more often.

I kept the ! WP_DEBUG and ! SCRIPT_DEBUG checks since theme developers presumably have these constants turned on when developing a theme and we don't want the cache to interfere with their work.

I also kept the empty( $types ) check, since otherwise we would need to cache the stylesheet for every possible value in $types.

Furthermore, there is now a filter that can override the default cache behavior when needed such as in the unit tests.

(I want to document some of the rationale for the filter)

The use case the filter addresses is allowing consumers to control cache based on external conditions. Sometimes, it's not enough to clear the cache upon all the events this is hooked into.

Initially, my thinking was that Miguel and I discussed that this could be enough (asking consumers to clear the cache under those conditions):

// In some 3rd party code, such as a plugin:
if ( $some_conditions_are_met ) {
	gutenberg_get_global_stylesheet_clean_cache();
	// So it gets recalculated based on
	// the results of the filters for theme.json data.
}

// ...

// In core code:
gutenberg_get_global_stylesheet(); // will repopulate the cache

However, this code is vulnerable to race conditions.

A simple example would be when the object cache is implemented as a persistent cache across request that is shared among many front-end servers. Other examples exist, but this is easy to visualize. A reproducible race condition would be:

  • server A cleans the cache (in the plugin code)
  • server B sets the cache (in the core code)
  • server A goes to find the value (in the core code) and it comes from the cache, so it's not recalculated as expected

By allowing the plugin code to modify the core behaviour (by means of the filter):

function gutenberg_get_global_stylesheet( $types = array() ) {
	$can_use_cached = apply_filters( 'wp_get_global_stylesheet_can_use_cache', $default );
	// ...

the cache will never be used if the consumer does not want to, avoiding race conditions.
