Module Description
The Dropsolid Purger module enables you to invalidate caches in multiple varnish loadbalancers.

This module is a rework of the Acquia purge module to be usable on every environment. So the initial code should be credited to nielsvm

This module uses the Purge module

Features
* Currently the Dropsolid Purge module supports tag invalidation and everything invalidation.
* The module will only purge tags for the current site by using the X-Dropsolid-Site header.
* The current site is defined by the name you set in config and the subsite directory.
* The module supports multiple loadbalancers
* There is also a default vcl in the examples folder that contains the logic for the bans

Installation Normal module installation procedure. See https://www.drupal.org/documentation/install/modules-themes/modules-8

FAQ Do you have a vcl we can use? The module is packaged with an example VCL for Drupal 8 and this module. Be sure to change it to your needs and particular situation. Nothing is stopping you from using this module and our vcl. Don't want to have all this hassle? You're also welcome on our platform with your site... :)

Why didn't we use the varnish module? This module is built to be used on top of the purge module to benefit from extra functionalities similar to the Acquia Purge module. It’s tailor-made to get the best performance out of the Dropsolid Platform but feel free to use the sample vcl and figure out how to make it work for you.

Why is it called Dropsolid Purge? Since we wanted to make it fully compatible with the Dropsolid Platform we decided to go for a similar route as the other purge implementations. As said above, we can collaborate to make a common base and perhaps extend the varnish module or create a special submodule. However, we need to make sure that we can keep it simple, and to make sure that the commands sent are compatible with the VCL's on our platform.

Suggestions or want to shift this to the next level? The issue queue is here for you!

How does this module work? You can read about that in our blogpost

Why can't I configure this purger through the interface? Time.. Precious time... An issue has been created for it in the meanwhile.
