Cache Eviction support

Expiry for Cached Queries

Orbital now honours HTTP cache headers on HTTP responses, when a cache is enabled for a query.

As described in Caching Orbital provides ability to cache query results with @Cache annotation:

@Cache(connection = "mycache")
find { Film[] }

Let assume that you have a rest end point returning list of films:

service FilmServices {
  @HttpOperation(method = "GET", url = "...")
  operation listFilms():Film[]
}

If your Rest operation returns Cache-Control header in its response, Orbital will take the max-age directive into account and expire the cached query result accordingly.

Here as an example response with Cache-Control header:

max-age=144004 will get Orbital to cache the Film list for 4 hours. After 4 hours, the items in the query cache will expire automatically.
