Exactly what I wanted to ask. 28 days ago I asked the dev to look at a post (https://github.com/FRiCKLE/ngx_cache_purge/pull/35), but he never answered.
I think we have our answer...
So what do we do ? Maybe start a new project, so we can think about adding new features, like #35 ?
+1 for me. Even if I don't have the skills to do it.
@PiotrSikora But seriously is it so hard to connect on github and answer some questions ?
@rfnx @PiotrSikora has been very busy AFAIK. I do have permissions to push to this repos though I'm not sure if I'll have enough time to maintain this module given that I already have so many modules myself to maintain :(
@agentzh Please be serious, some pull request are opened since June, maybe more, and still no answer... It's not just being busy.
Thanks anyway for your reply
@rfnx Well, I was serious since I had been working in the same office as Piotr in most of the past few years :)
I saw this happening on many projects. The author disappear. It's understandable. IMHO @rfnx just merge PRs on you branch so other people can use it and send feedbacks. That will be the new "master". Who knows, maybe one day @PiotrSikora will merge it into the official branch
Ok but I need to test the PRs cause there are problems with at least #35.
@rfnx mantainer's life ! :-)
BTW, there are a couple "fresher" plugins that do great:
Thanks for closing the cap with Varnish, @wandenberg!
There's another alternative I found today: https://github.com/pintsized/ledge
Thanks for your work, too, @pintsized!
@PiotrSikora Its been a few years now, could u please confirm if this should be considered dead? Any plans of merging any of the PRs !?
Yes, it's abandonware (and has been for years). Sorry!
Well thanks for confirming or for make it happen and maintaining it while it was possible :)
I wonder if there's any other similar module you would recommend? A few were listed but I'm not sure they work for fastcgi...
There seems to be a fairly recent fork: https://github.com/nginx-modules/ngx_cache_purge
This is used per default in the alpine package for nginx (nginx-mod-http-cache-purge).
Is this project still maintained?
Possible to update README if this is no longer maintained?
The "production ready" kinda misleading and wasting a lot of time as there seems to be quite a bit of bug with regards to installation and getting this to work.
Sorry for the straight question @PiotrSikora, but I see issues and PRs being neglected for months and years, so, we should know what to plan for. Thanks!
