'''refresh-cache''' - Refresh local cache of a remote rocks server.

== Usage ==

:'''[[luarocks-admin]] refresh-cache <nowiki>[</nowiki>--from=''server''<nowiki>]'''

The flag --from indicates which server to use. If not given, the default server set in the '''upload_server''' variable from the [[Config file format|configuration file]] is used instead. You need to either explicitly pass a full URL to --from or configure an upload server in your configuration file prior to using the "refresh-cache" function.

== Example ==

=== Basic example ===

Refresh the cache of your main upload server:

luarocks-admin refresh-cache

=== Handling multiple repositories ===

Assuming your ~/.luarocks/config.lua file looks like this:

upload_server = "main"
 upload_servers = {
    main = {
       http = "www.example.com/repos/main",
       sftp = "myuser@example.com/var/www/repos/main"
    },
    dev = {
       http = "www.example.com/repos/devel-rocks",
       sftp = "myuser@example.com/var/www/repos/devel-rocks"
    },
 }

you can specify which cache to refresh with the --from flag:

luarocks-admin refresh-cache --from=dev
