up.network up.cache.alias(oldRequest, newRequest)
JavaScript function

This feature is experimental. Please share your experiences so we know what to keep or change.

Makes the cache assume that newRequest has the same response as the already cached oldRequest.

Unpoly uses this internally when the user redirects from /old to /new. In that case, both /old and /new will cache the same response from /new.


Parameters

oldRequest Objectorup.Request

The earlier request or request options.

newRequest Objectorup.Requestorundefined

The new request or request options.

If oldRequest wasn't found in the cache, undefined is returned.
