Caching selected URLs with Varnish

Is there a way to provide a static list of URLs to cache? I know that I can put a bunch of 'if' statements in the VCL but I am wondering if there is a more elegant way.

Solution

  • Put them to regular expression

    if (req.url ~ "^/(some/url/1|some/url/2|....|some/urlN)") {
    unset req.http.Cookie;
    return (lookup);
}
else {
    return (pass);
}

    or just list with ||

        if (req.url ~ "^/some/url/1"
    || req.url ~ "^/some/url/2
    ...
    || req.url ~ "^/some/urlN"
    ) {
            unset req.http.Cookie;
            return (lookup);
    }
