Rails geokit caching

Question

How would you cache GeoKit requests?

This does not work for me...

Geokit::Geocoders::query_cache         = true
Geokit::Geocoders::query_cache_max_age = 86400 # 1 day in seconds

Answer 1

I'm not sure I understand the question, so I'll just throw an answer out there:

Do you mean something like storing a hash of location/coordinates in memory, or in the database, for instance?

Answer 2

Make sure /tmp is writable from your server process.

Note: /tmp must be writable in order to use the query caching functionality.

via Seebq's geokit gem. Make sure you are using Seebq's gem, because it is a fork of Andre's geokit gem to add cache support.
