My app which is built on Capacitor and bootstrap takes time to update data on the client side.
Before I proceed, I want to set this across that:
My backend where I insert data into the database was not built with Wappler; it was built with the Laravel framework.
So I only use Wappler as a fronted and query data from my database.
Now, whenever a new data is inserted, I have to manually clear cache or the app data or wait for sometime for the newly inserted data to appear on the client side.
I want to know how I can remove or minimise the delays.
There’s an HTTP header for cache control, inspect the HTTP request of the data query and see if there’s a cache header and correct it if necessary. It’s also important to determine if such header is being set by Laravel or your web server instead
Thank you for your thoughts @Apple.
It seems the data actually get retrieve from the database but doesn’t display on the client side on time… I found this by trying to search for a data on the page using the get filter component; I mean I have a search box on the pages which filters the data returned by the API…
And whenever I search for any newly inserted data, it returns though is not present or displayed on the page.
The place you want to check is your browser’s developer tools, the network tab, so you can see the request it performs and if there’s a cache header present.
Unfortunately, I lack the time to expand this further, but feel free to throw in your questions and someone will help you
