Prevent angular app from caching
Raw
Angular Cache
Developing apps with angularjs comes with it's own headaches, one of which is the caching of files in the browser.
As a developer you can make use of plugins like Classic Cache Killer or disable caching in devtools. You can't go around asking all
your users to clear their cache after every new update
After going through several SO posts and blogs, only one solution worked for me(based on my setup).
Using Nginx, I added this directive
location ~* \.(?:manifest|appcache|html?|xml|json)$ {
expires -1;
}
which was gotten from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40243633/disable-nginx-cache-for-javascript-files.
After adding that, Dayum!!!
