Django cache_key页面缓存 浅谈Django 页面缓存的cache_key是怎样生成的

 headerlist = cache.get(cache_key)
 # 即使响应头没有Vary字段，还是会针对当前 cache_header_key 存一个空数组
 # 因此如果headerlist为None，表示当前请求没有缓存
 if headerlist is not None:
  # 根据 出现在Vary字段中的request请求头字段的值(有序拼在一起)、request的完整url、request的method、key_prefix 生成 cache_key
  return _generate_cache_key(request, method, headerlist, key_prefix)
