[xwiki-devs] How to invalidate security cache?

I have XWiki and a separate app. I need to use my app permissions in XWiki. XWiki uses security cache and asks my app for a particular permission only once. I need to make XWiki aware about permission changes in my app. I have several options: 1. sometimes I invalidate cache in my application. I could call xwiki api to invalidate the whole xwiki cache when I invalidate my app cache. 2. from time to time (say, every minute) make a REST call to my app. My app says if cache was invalidated. If it was I would like to invalidate xwiki cache. My questions are: 1. how to invalidate the whole cache? I implemented CustomSecurityCacheInvalidator, but it seems like I can remove only separate entities there via `remove` call. As I understand I have to call `suspend` and then remove entities from the cache and then call `resume`, right? But SecurityCache has only `get` and `remove` methods for separate entities. 2. should I create a separate `Component` for scheduler which will poll data from my app from time to time? I could start new thread there to ask my app on schedule and Inject CustomSecurityCacheInvalidator. Is it the right approach? My class is here: @Component @Singleton public class CustomSecurityCacheInvalidator extends DefaultSecurityCacheRulesInvalidator { @Inject private SecurityCache securityCache; @Override public void suspend() { System.out.println("suspend!"); super.suspend(); //I can use securityCache here } @Override public void resume() { System.out.println("resume!"); super.resume(); } } -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/How-to-invalidate-security-cache-tp759913… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
