Caddy (WORK IN PROGRESS)

Holds your stuff, and keeps it up to date.

# in your initializers (caddy.rb would be a wonderful name)
Caddy.refresher = -> { Hash[SomeKeyValueModel.all.map { |skvm| [skvm.key.to_sym, skvm.value } }
Caddy.refresh_interval = 5.minutes # default is 60 seconds

# ... in your unicorn.rb/puma.rb after fork/start
Caddy.start

# ... in a controller
def index
  # the Caddy requests are instant, and are up-to-date (as of 5 minutes ago, as specified above)
  # you could use this for high-level feature flags, cache dumping
  if Caddy[:use_the_fast_index]
    Rails.cache.fetch("#{Caddy[:global_cache_version}/#{Caddy[:foo_index_cache_version}/foo/bar") do
      # wonderful things happen here
    end
  end
end
