XF 2.0 When is "code_cache" built, and can it be easily rebuilt (via the command line)?

[RastaLulz]

Looking into getting my forum's code into a git repo, to better manage it. I've moved data/internal_data to S3. However, code_cache (inside of internal_data) still has to be accessed on the server.

• When is "code_cache" built?
• How frequently is it altered (would it be safe to put in a git repo, or would it quickly become out of sync with it)?
• Is it possible to rebuild the "code_cache" (for instance I pull the repo on production, rebuild the code_cache, and we're good to go)?
  • Looks like you can run "php cmd.php xf:rebuild-master-data", not sure if it does anything else.

For context, if "code_cache" isn't present, you get an empty response.

I am also interested in answer to the question - how can one rebuilt data from "public/internal_data" (which is populated only after installation)?.. and specifically "public/internal_data/code_cache" which is a must for XF to work.

Anyone? Thanks!

Ok, looks like $ php cmd.php xf:rebuild-master-data is the way to go.

So, if by accident you by whatever reason loose "internal_data/" folder you can still resurrect your forum instance using command above, right?

+1 because I want to uninstall an addon, but if I uninstalled that, errors will be reported referring to the code_cache.
