How to implement cache to rendering CSS and JS file in MVC C#

 The below code will help us to implement cache to render CSS and JS files in MVC C# and also to improve the performance of page loading.

The following steps:

• 1)     Added a Cache Helper class to Cache file,
• 2)     Import the Utility on cshtml file
• 3)     Apply the CacheHelper.CacheFile() for each js and css file on views
• 4)     Result

For Example,> Added a Cache Helper class to Cache file,

using System;

using System.IO;

using System.Web;

using System.Web.Caching;

using System.Web.Hosting;

namespace Utility

{

    public static class CacheHelper

    {      

        public static string CacheFile(string rootRelativePath)

        {

            if (HttpRuntime.Cache[rootRelativePath] == null)

            {

                string absolute = HostingEnvironment.MapPath(rootRelativePath);

                DateTime date = File.GetLastWriteTime(absolute);

 

                string result = rootRelativePath + "?v=" + date.Ticks;

                HttpRuntime.Cache.Insert(rootRelativePath, result, new CacheDependency(absolute));

            } 

            return HttpRuntime.Cache[rootRelativePath] as string;

        } 

    }

}

Import the Utility on cshtml file & Apply the CacheHelper.CacheFile()

import helper class > @using Utility

CSS file,

<link href="@CacheHeper.CacheFile("/includes/css/bootstrap.min.css")" rel="stylesheet" />

JS file,

<script src="@CacheHeper.CacheFile("/Scripts/jquery-maskedinput.js")"></script>
