Be able to pass which cache (in settings.CACHES) I want to use

[avances123]

Something like bare django cache decorator, in drf-extensions:

@cache_response(cache='other_than_default')

Seems reasonable?

Hi. Seems reasonable, would love to merge a pull request =)

I've implemented this feature in new development version http://chibisov.github.io/drf-extensions/docs/#usage-of-the-specific-cache

Nice!!!!!

I need clear caches for test cases with MockRedis & drf-extensions, and eventually found that it's hardly to do with Django < 1.7.

The drf-extensions call get_cache on every decorated viewset, and cache object is in the closure without any name referenced, however the bad is, the get_cache gives non singleton result in Django (see new API for Django 1.7). It would cause many connections in production!

Any idea on this? Thanks!

@flisky, please, create another issue.
