Allow to opt-in for render caching on POST requests

Created on 21 January 2016, almost 9 years ago

Updated 29 January 2024, 11 months ago

Problem/Motivation

There are cases where enabling render caching on POST requests is perfectly safe, even required. For example, token.module would like to use render caching on the token tree but that's almost always opened on POST requests because it's opened in an ajax dialog most of the time.

I'm aware that we'd like to enable it always, but I honestly don't know if we can pull that off for 8.x and there's no progress on that topic at the moment. See 📌 Allow both AJAX and non-AJAX forms to POST to dedicated URLs Postponed

This suggestion is trivial to implement however.

Proposed resolution

Add a post => TRUE flag to #cache, if set, skip the safe methods checks.

I forgot this issue existed and opened 📌 Make POST requests render cacheable Needs work , it doesn't use an opt-in, instead it special cases forms so that all POST requests are render cached but all forms are excluded. Green MR over there. Postponing this issue on that one - not an exact duplicate since the approach is different, but if one lands we won't need the other.
