cleanup(options = nil)

Preemptively iterates through all stored keys and removes the ones which have expired.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb, line 43
def cleanup(options = nil)
  options = merged_options(options)
  search_dir(cache_path) do |fname|
    entry = read_entry(fname, **options)
    delete_entry(fname, **options) if entry && entry.expired?
  end
end
clear(options = nil)

Deletes all items from the cache. In this case it deletes all the entries in the specified file store directory except for .keep or .gitkeep. Be careful which directory is specified in your config file when using FileStore because everything in that directory will be deleted.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb, line 36
def clear(options = nil)
  root_dirs = (Dir.children(cache_path) - GITKEEP_FILES)
  FileUtils.rm_r(root_dirs.collect { |f| File.join(cache_path, f) })
rescue Errno::ENOENT, Errno::ENOTEMPTY
end
decrement(name, amount = 1, options = nil)

Decrements an already existing integer value that is stored in the cache. If the key is not found nothing is done.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb, line 59
def decrement(name, amount = 1, options = nil)
  modify_value(name, -amount, options)
end
delete_matched(matcher, options = nil)
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb, line 63
def delete_matched(matcher, options = nil)
  options = merged_options(options)
  instrument(:delete_matched, matcher.inspect) do
    matcher = key_matcher(matcher, options)
    search_dir(cache_path) do |path|
      key = file_path_key(path)
      delete_entry(path, **options) if key.match(matcher)
    end
  end
end
increment(name, amount = 1, options = nil)

Increments an already existing integer value that is stored in the cache. If the key is not found nothing is done.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/cache/file_store.rb, line 53
def increment(name, amount = 1, options = nil)
  modify_value(name, amount, options)
