What does passing stale: undefined to the cacheLife function mean?

[tomdohnal]

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if specifying stale: undefined to the cacheLife function mean.

In the docs, it says that the stale property specifies: "Duration the client should cache a value without checking the server."

So does passing stale: undefined mean:

1. the client will never check the server
2. or the client will always check the server

Thank you!

Hi @tomdohnal ,

Passing stale: undefined to the cacheLife function means that the client will always check the server for the latest data. When stale is set to undefined, it implies that there is no duration defined for the cached value, resulting in the client bypassing the cache and fetching fresh data from the server every time.

Thanks!
