Feature Request: New API Function

[jaswrks]

I'd like to request a new API Function in ZenCache that would allow a site owner to clear the cache for a specific URL. We recently added one that allows you to clear a specific post ID, but it would be easier for most people if this could be extended to allow for a specific URL that they provide.

API Functions That Exist Already

<?php
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/wp-load.php';

zencache::version();
zencache::options();
zencache::clear();
zencache::wipe();
zencache::purge();
zencache::clearPost($post_id);
zencache::clearUser($user_id);
zencache::clearCurrentUser();

What I'd like to add...

zencache::clearUrl($url);

Next Actions

• New feature branch in the websharks/zencache-pro repo.

• After this line add a new method:

  /**
  * This clears the cache for a specific URL.
  *
  * @since 15xxxx Adding support for custom URLs.
  *
  * @param string $url Input URL to clear.
  *
  * @return int Total files cleared (if any).
  */
  public static function clearUrl($url)
  {
      $regex = $GLOBALS[GLOBAL_NS]->buildHostCachePathRegex($url);
      return $GLOBALS[GLOBAL_NS]->clearFilesFromHostCacheDir($regex);
  }
