Cleaning Full Route Cache on deployments

[jnm733]

Like the official doc indicate, I want to clean my Full Route Cache on every deployment.

https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/caching#invalidation

These records have the field 'kind: "PAGE"' on Redis values. Which is the easily way to clean these records automatically on our deploy pipeline maintaining data cache records?

Thanks!

Hello @jnm733! Sorry for the delay. When deploying the new version, do you want to clean all cache entries except kind: 'FETCH'?

Hi!

Yes, it would be perfect to clean Full Route Cache between deployments without affect to the FETCH caches that stay the same.

For now, there is no built-in solution. I can offer a concept of a solution. You can create a JS file that connects to your remote storage without CacheHandler, finds every non-FETCH value, and deletes the corresponding entries. Then, you can add this JS file to postbuild script in package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "next build",
    "postbuild": "node clean-full-route-cache.js"
  }
}

This is just a concept. I need more time to come up with a proper solution.
