M2: Invalidating Caches

When saving objects in your custom module it may be beneficial to indicate that a cache type should be cleared.  This can be achieved using the TypeListInterface from the Framework’s Cache Module. Furthermore with this interface you can also retrieve the cache type labels, a list of other caches that have been invalidated, or clean a cache type by code.

_cacheTypesList = $_cacheTypesList;
   }

   /**
    * Mark specific cache type(s) as invalidated
    *
    * @param $type
    */
   public function invalidateCache( $type )
   {
      $this->_cacheTypesList->invalidate( $type );
   }

   /**
    * Get information about all declared cache types
    *
    * @return array
    */
   public function getCacheTypes()
   {
      /* Example structure for cache type array
       $_types = [
         'CACHE TYPE CODE' =>
          (object)[ //Magento\Framework\DataObject
                    'id' =>(int)'',
                    'cache_type'=>(string) '',
                    'description'=>(string)'',
                    'tags'=>(string)'',
                     'status'=>(int)'',
             ]
      ];*/
      return $this->_cacheTypesList->getTypes();
   }
