# Manage Caches There are three commands to manage Lucee/Railo caches. ## List existing caches ```bash # Lucee server context of the CommandBox server in the current directory cfconfig cache list # Lucee web context of the CommandBox server in the current directory cfconfig cache list fromFormat=luceeWeb # Target a CommandBox server by name cfconfig cache list from=serverName # Target an externally installed server cfconfig cache list from=/path/to/server/home ``` To receive the data back as JSON, use the `--JSON` flag. ``` cfconfig cache list --JSON ``` ## Edit an existing or create a new cache Add a new cache or update an existing cache. Existing caches will be matched based on the name. You can use a the `type` parameter as a shortcut for specifying the full Java class, which may change between versions. ``` cfconfig cache save myCache RAM cfconfig cache save name=myOtherCache type=EHCache cfconfig cache save name=myCache type=EHCache to=serverName cfconfig cache save name=myCache type=RAM to=/path/to/server/home ``` Alternatively, specify the full class name. ``` cfconfig cache save myCache lucee.runtime.cache.ram.RamCache cfconfig cache save name=myCache class=lucee.runtime.cache.ram.RamCache to=serverName cfconfig cache save name=myCache class=lucee.runtime.cache.ram.RamCache to=/path/to/server/home ``` If your cache provider expects custom properties, pass them as additional parameters to this command prefixed with the text `custom:`. This requires named parameters, of course. ``` cfconfig cache save name=myCache type=RAM custom:timeToIdleSeconds=0 custom:timeToLiveSeconds=0 ``` ## Delete an existing cache Identify the cache uniquely by the name. ``` cfconfig cache delete myCache cfconfig cache delete myCache serverName cfconfig cache delete myCache /path/to/server/home ``` --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question. Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://cfconfig.ortusbooks.com/using-the-cli/command-overview/manage-caches.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
