How to stop my views from cacheing

[Dwayne Ghant]

Hello All: 

I have a python view that I'm building but the for some strange reason the view keeps caching.  Just to give an example: 

@api_view(['POST'])

@parser_classes((XMLParser,))

@cache_page(0)

@cache_control(private=True)

def test_view(request, format=None):

    return Response({'received data TESTING2': 'testing'})

Doesn't return "received data TESTING2': testing ." Instead, it keep returning the old cached information. Can some please tell me how to explicitly turn off caching while I'm still developing?  It a pain!! I I have listed the references below that I used to trouble shoot: 

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/cache/?from=olddocs#the-per-view-cache

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/settings/#std:setting-CACHES

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/cache/

Any help would be deeply appreciated. 

Thanx

You'll need to clear the cache. Remember, once the view is cached, django wont go down to the view until the cache thinks the content has expired.

Thanks Chris,

That's exactly what I thought I was doing. Can you please tell me what missed? How, exactly do unclear the cache; if that's not what I'm currently doing?

What you're doing is saying "any _new_ results returned from this view are uncacheable", but that doesn't impact the results that are in the cache already.

Read up on this section to see how to "invalidate" the existing cache:
