Added experimental headers to allow caching members content (#20200)
ref
https://linear.app/tryghost/issue/KTLO-45/deploy-members-caching-solution-to-a-single-site-to-validate-and-test

Currently we only cache publicly available content. Any content that is
accessed by a logged in member is only cached for that specific member
based on their cookie. As a result, almost all requests from logged in
members bypass our caching layer and reach Ghost, which adds unnecessary
load to Ghost and its database.

This change adds experimental headers that allow our CDN to understand
which tier to cache the content against, and securely tell the CDN which
tier a logged in member has access to. With these changes, we can cache
the member content against the tier, rather than the individual member,
which should result in a higher cache HIT ratio and reduce the load on
Ghost.

For requests to the frontend of the site, Ghost will set a custom
`X-Member-Cache-Tier` header to the ID of the tier of the member who is
accessing the content. This tells the CDN which tier to cache the
content against.

For requests to either `/members/?token=...` endpoint (the magic link
endpoint) or `/members/api/member`, Ghost will set a `ghost-access` and
`ghost-access-hmac` cookie with the ID of the tier of the logged in
member. With these two pieces of information, our CDN can serve cached
content to logged in members.

These headers are experimental, and can only be enabled via Ghost's
config. To enable these headers, set `cacheMembersContent:enabled` to
`true` and provide an HMAC key in `cacheMembersContent:hmacSecret`.

Fiercely independent, professional publishing. Ghost is the most popular open source, headless Node.js CMS which already works with all the tools you know and love.

 

Ghost(Pro) Ghost(Pro)

The easiest way to get a production instance deployed is with our official Ghost(Pro) managed service. It takes about 2 minutes to launch a new site with worldwide CDN, backups, security and maintenance all done for you.

For most people this ends up being the best value option because of how much time it saves — and 100% of revenue goes to the Ghost Foundation; funding the maintenance and further development of the project itself. So youll be supporting open source software and getting a great service!

 

Quickstart install

If you want to run your own instance of Ghost, in most cases the best way is to use our CLI tool

npm install ghost-cli -g

 

Then, if installing locally add the local flag to get up and running in under a minute - Local install docs

ghost install local

 

or on a server run the full install, including automatic SSL setup using LetsEncrypt - Production install docs

ghost install
