module DataUpdateScripts class GradualArticleCacheBust def run # This script is designed to bust the cache on article pages sufficient such that significant changes to # CSS will not create meaningful visual regressions for most users. # All articles have their caches naturally recycle once per day to finalize the transition. # This uses exponential backoff in order to bust the caches of more recent articles first, but not # bust everything in too short a period, so that the edge cache can gradually re-heat without everything # going cold at once. Articles with high "hotness score" (e.g. more recent) are the ones most in need of busting. # It only busts the "?i=i" variant of the path which is the "internal nav" version, aka the page when swapped # with internal navigation, not the one landed on directly (which wouldn't have cache mismatches) relation = Article.published.order(hotness_score: :desc).select(:path) relation.limit(1500).each_with_index do |article, index| n = index + 300 # + 300 gives the server time to boot up BustCachePathWorker.set(queue: :high_priority).perform_in(n.seconds, "#{article.path}?i=i") end relation.offset(1500).limit(3000).each_with_index do |article, index| n = (index * 3) + 450 BustCachePathWorker.set(queue: :medium_priority).perform_in(n.seconds, "#{article.path}?i=i") end end end end
