Cache Buster for Angular JS $http and $resource. Especially useful with Internet Explorer (IE8, IE9)

bower install accesso-angular-cache-buster --save

In your app module definition, add ngCacheBuster as a dependency

angular.module('myApp', ['ngCacheBuster']);

AngularCacheBuster adds a cache buster to any $http requests (and hence to $resource requests). Since you probably want to maintain browser caching for your views, partials or other routes, you can supply a list of regexes that will be matched against all URL's. By default the supplied matchlist is a whitelist (i.e. busting everything not matching an entry in the list) but you can also set it to be a blacklist, (i.e. busting everything except the matching entries)

For instance, if you want to bust everything except views in a 'partials' folder and images in a 'images' folder , you can configure AngularCacheBuster this way:

angular.module('yourApp', ['ngCacheBuster'])
  .config(function(httpRequestInterceptorCacheBusterProvider){
    httpRequestInterceptorCacheBusterProvider.setMatchlist([/.*partials.*/,/.*images.*/]);
  });

If instead you want to allow everything to be cached, except your "/api/users" and "api/orders" (assuming they are the only things that change frequently), you can supply a matchlist as before, but pass in a second boolean argument "blacklist" set to true as well:

angular.module('yourApp', ['ngCacheBuster'])
  .config(function(httpRequestInterceptorCacheBusterProvider){
    httpRequestInterceptorCacheBusterProvider.setMatchlist([/.*orders.*/,/.*users.*/],true);
  });

That's it! All your resource calls will have a cache buster added for anything not in the whitelist, or if you specified "blacklist", for everything matching the blacklist,

karma start to launch the tests

Bump the version and push the tag to trigger the publish workflow:

npm version {major|minor|patch}
git push && git push --tags

The tag push will automatically publish the package to the accesso CodeArtifact registry. Make sure AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY are configured as GitHub repository secrets before running.
