Help Specifying Non-Default Cache Driver For Blade Files

[laikas123]

Hello,

Our team has been looking into trying to specify a different cache driver only for a specific part of our application. We want to use the file cache driver for caching blade files without making it our default cache driver.

We had noticed that the ShouldBeUnique middleware utilizes this UniqueVia function which specifies which cache driver is used for acquiring locks on unique jobs:

public function uniqueVia(): Repository
{
    return Cache::driver('redis');
}

We want to do something similar but for blade files. That is we want blade files to be cached using file, but are not sure how to proceed. There is not much information online about how one might go about this so just curious if anyone could point us in the right direction. Thanks!

Ok a quick update.

After doing some reading it looks like we could set the following option in config/view.php:

'cache' => 'file',

Would this be the right approach?
