I'm looking for 2 things:
-
How to disable all caching during development with Spring boot "dev" profile. There doesn't seam to be a general setting to turn it all off in application.properties. What's the easiest way?
-
How to disable caching for a specific method? I tried to use SpEl like this:
@Cacheable(value = "complex-calc", condition="#${spring.profiles.active} != 'dev'}") public String someBigCalculation(String input){ ... }
But I can get it to work. There are a couple of questions on SO related to this, but they refer to XML config or other things, but I'm using Spring Boot 1.3.3 and this uses auto-configuration.
I don't want to over-complicate things.

The type of cache is by default automatically detected and configured. However you can specify which cache type to use by adding
spring.cache.type
to your configuration. To disable it set the value toNONE
.As you want to do it for a specific profile add it to that profiles
application.properties
in this case modify theapplication-dev.properties
and addThis will disable caching.
