Clear Cache automatically when using a Git Repository

Question

Can Staq cache automatically clear the site’s cache every time I update the plugin or theme’s repo?

Solution

It is now possible to have the Staq Cache clear automatically when you’re using a repo like Bitbucket or Github.

Below are the steps.

Step 1

Go to your custom theme/plugin’s repo.

Step 2

Inside that theme or plugin, create file name in the main directory:

.stq_config

Be sure to include the full stop at the start of the file name.

Step 3

Paste the following WP CLI command inside the file:

{
“post_deploy”: [
“wp wpstaq clear-cache –reason=’autoclear due to CSS updates'”
]
}

Step 4

You’re done!

Each time Staq pulls information from your repo, our system will look for ../.stq_config file and it exists, it will parse it and run the WP CLI command to clear the cache.
