Cache Clear Documentation #564

Closed toddpi314 closed 8 years ago

toddpi314 commented 9 years ago

For many use cases, the ORM module cache needs to be manually cleared. This is useful in cases where you are bootstrapping mocha tests and need isolation, or are pooling resources on a server.

This can be done by calling orm.singleton.clear().

Can someone update the documentation to reflect this?

It saved me some headache! I don't know why they don't refresh the cache when a model has changed. When i have a 'list' with 'items' and create a new 'item', the list doesn't retrieve the new item on page refresh, it does on server restart...

The cache is not a cache, but an identity pattern implementation. I hope to disable it by default and rename accordingly in a future release.
