A parallel for Django's @never_cache in Tornado

Question

What would be the canonical way to implement a parallel of Django's @never_cache for Tornado's RequestHandler.get()?

Answer 1

Perhaps it's enough to override RequestHandler.compute_etag() to return None? As in:

class BaseHandler(RequestHandler):

    def compute_etag(self):
        return None

This seems to do the trick in local development.
