reload sitetree with sitetree_resync_apps

[acidjunk]

When I run python manage.py sitetree_resync_apps in my Django 1.7 or Django 1.8 stack; it seems like sitetree menu isn't correctly updated. I write "seems"; because I believe it's updated OK; but due to items still being in the cache you don't see it on the site or in the admin menu.

As I don't know in which cache it is; or how to delete it; my current workflow consist of: delete site tree items in admin menu manually, run python manage.py sitetree_resync_apps; this feel rather tedious when some URL's have to be added to the site tree; and you have to debug it a couple of times.

I even tried to clear the cache by writing an extra management command:

from django.core.management.base import BaseCommand
from sitetree.models import Tree
from django.core.cache import cache

class Command(BaseCommand):
    args = ''
    help = 'Will delete the sitetree so it can be repopulated. This eases automated deployment.'

    def delete_sitetrees(self):
        Tree.objects.all().delete()
        self.stdout.write('Deleted all sitetrees')
        cache.clear()
        self.stdout.write('Cleared site cache')

    def handle(self, *args, **options):
        self.delete_sitetrees()

But this doesn't seem to work. Is there a way to force the cache to be flushed, or am I doing something wrong?

BTW: This issues could be related with #135

Thank you for the report.
I'll check whether these two issues are related, and try to do something to improve the situation in a couple of days.

Here and in #135 is cache invalidation issue: SiteTree stores intermediate cache that needs to be invalidated from another process (manage). We'd probably end up with intermediate cache dropped.

Thanks for your quick reply :)
are the any know workarounds to clear the cache? I'm using default backend (e.g. no cache settings whatsoever in settings)

[idlesign]

I've implemented an utility mehtod to reset cache, yet it requires cache to be set for something other than LocalMemory. You can verify the solution works in master.

I will test it in a moment. Thanks for the quick response.

I believe it works ok. (have to reload the dev webserver to see changes but that's ok)
Will test this soon in production.

[...] have to reload the dev webserver to see changes but that's ok [...]

It shouldn't be necessary. What's your workflow?

[acidjunk]

I change something in my file with urls (sitetrees.py); then I run python manage.py sitetree_resync_apps;
then I reload dev webserver and menu is correct in admin and site.

I don't have Cache settings at all. (using default django cache settings)
