Rails::Cached::Routes

For large applications with extensive routes files, the expense of loading the routes file for every command that requires the rails stack can become painfully slow. In this case, time can be saved by marshalling the routes to a file so that subsequent loads of the rails stack can just unmarshal that file and be on its way.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rails-cached-routes'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rails-cached-routes

Usage

No special steps are needed to utilize rails-cached-routes as the railtie automatically adds the functionality into place. For each route file processed by rails, a .cached file will be created on-the-fly whenever the rails stack is loaded the first time. From then on the cached file will be used until its timestamp becomes older than the original routes file.
