No cache in Node.js server

Question

I have read that to avoid caching in Node.js, it is necessary to use:

res.header(\'Cache-Control\', \'no-cache, private         


        

Answer 1

After spelunking through source code for the express and fresh modules, this works from the server side (before res.end is called):

req.headers['if-modified-since'] = undefined;
req.headers['if-none-match'] = undefined;

Nasty, but it works.
