I need to configure mod_file_cache to recursively cache all files in a directory and its subdirectories on windows. Any idea on how to do it ?
Currently I am hardcoding all the files to be pre-cached when apache starts up which is a pain to maintain.
Example.
<IfModule file_cache_module>
CacheFile "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\assets\css\ab_bbar.css" "C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2\htdocs\assets\js\ab.js"
</IfModule> |

If you check the note in the Apache mod_file_cache docs, you will see that it says:
| Quote: | | Don't bother asking for a directive which recursively caches all the files in a directory. |
I guess they anticipated your question!
They suggest a way to accomplish this on Unix systems by creating an Include file using the find and sed programs.
A similar way to create this Include file on Windows would be to execute the following command from your web root directory: | Code: | | FOR /R %a IN (*.*) DO @echo CacheFile "%a" >> cachefiles.conf |
Then, move cachefiles.conf to your Apache \conf directory and Include it from httpd.conf.
If this works out for you, remember that you need to double the percent signs (i.e. %%a instead of %a) if you use this command inside a Windows .bat file.
