CacheBehaviorPerPathProperty Struct ​

CacheBehaviorPerPath is a property of the AWS::Lightsail::Distribution resource. It describes the per-path cache behavior of an Amazon Lightsail content delivery network (CDN) distribution.

Use a per-path cache behavior to override the default cache behavior of a distribution, or to add an exception to it. For example, if you set the CacheBehavior to cache , you can use a per-path cache behavior to specify a directory, file, or file type that your distribution will cache. If you don’t want your distribution to cache a specified directory, file, or file type, set the per-path cache behavior to dont-cache .

Example ​

ts
// The code below shows an example of how to instantiate this type.
// The values are placeholders you should change.
import { aws_lightsail as lightsail } from 'aws-cdk-lib';
const cacheBehaviorPerPathProperty: lightsail.CfnDistribution.CacheBehaviorPerPathProperty = {
  behavior: 'behavior',
  path: 'path',
};
