In Spring Boot MVC app I disable HTTP cache this way:
WebContentInterceptor cacheInterceptor = new WebContentInterceptor();
cacheInterceptor.setCacheSeconds(0);
cacheInterceptor.setUseExpiresHeader(true);
cacheInterceptor.setUseCacheControlHeader(true);
cacheInterceptor.setUseCacheControlNoStore(true);
registry.addInterceptor(cacheInterceptor);
How to do it in Spring Boot WebFlux app?
If you're using Spring Boot and you'd like to prevent caching for static resources, you can achieve that with the following configuration property:
spring.web.resources.cache.cachecontrol.no-store=true
If you'd like to disable caching for everything, including REST calls and views, etc; then you can implement a custom WebFilter that does just that and expose it as a bean in your application:
class NoStoreWebFilter implements WebFilter {
@Override
public Mono<Void> filter(ServerWebExchange exchange, WebFilterChain chain) {
exchange.getResponse().getHeaders()
.setCacheControl(CacheControl.noStore().getHeaderValue());
return chain.filter(exchange);
}
}
