\$cache\_dir {#variable.cache.dir}
|
||
|
|
============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is the name of the directory where template caches are stored. By
|
||
|
|
default this is `./cache`, meaning that Smarty will look for the
|
||
|
|
`cache/` directory in the same directory as the executing php script.
|
||
|
|
**This directory must be writeable by the web server**, [see
|
||
|
|
install](#installing.smarty.basic) for more info.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can also use your own [custom cache implementation](#caching.custom)
|
||
|
|
to control cache files, which will ignore this setting. See also
|
||
|
|
[`$use_sub_dirs`](#variable.use.sub.dirs).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> **Note**
|
||
|
|
>
|
||
|
|
> This setting must be either a relative or absolute path. include\_path
|
||
|
|
> is not used for writing files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> **Note**
|
||
|
|
>
|
||
|
|
> It is not recommended to put this directory under the web server
|
||
|
|
> document root.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> **Note**
|
||
|
|
>
|
||
|
|
> As of Smarty 3.1 the attribute \$cache\_dir is no longer accessible
|
||
|
|
> directly. Use [`getCacheDir()`](#api.get.cache.dir) and
|
||
|
|
> [`setCacheDir()`](#api.set.cache.dir) instead.
