Typeahead 0.10 prevent caching - typeahead

Question

I use twitter's typeahead 0.10 with remote url to retrieve JSON results from server.
I would like to prevent tthe client caching so that the search takes place always on the
server. How can I do that?
Please see below my code:
// instantiate the bloodhound suggestion engine
var dataSource = new Bloodhound({
datumTokenizer: function (d) {
return Bloodhound.tokenizers.whitespace(d.value);
},
queryTokenizer: Bloodhound.tokenizers.whitespace,
remote: {
url: "../" + autocompleteInfo.ControllerName + "/" + autocompleteInfo.MethodName + "?term=%QUERY&ts=" + (new Date().getTime()),
filter: function (res) {
var data = [];
data = $.map(res, function (item) {
return { label: item.Name, id: item.Id, autocompleteInfo: autocompleteInfo, cssClass: item.Class };
});
return data;
}
},
limit: 15,
name: 'typeaheadSourceCache',
ttl: 0,
ajax: {
cache: false
}
});
dataSource.initialize();
$("#" + autocompleteInfo.AutocompleteId).typeahead({
minLength: 3,
highlight: true,
autoselect: true
},
{
displayKey: 'label',
source: dataSource.ttAdapter(),
templates: {
suggestion: Handlebars.compile(
'<div class="searchItem {{cssClass}}">{{label}}</div>'
)
}
});

Answer 1

Just add cache field to remote object:
remote: {
'cache': false
...
}

Answer 2

Look at version 10.0.2. There is now a means to clear cache via Bloodhound.js (used in association with Typeahead.js):
engine.clearRemoteCache();
Here is the documentation from twitter typeahead:

Answer 3

Try to use typeahead destroy utils, i think in your case are:
$("#" + autocompleteInfo.AutocompleteId).typeahead('destroy');
The you reinizialize $("#" + autocompleteInfo.AutocompleteId)

Answer 4

To fix IE issues I've came to:
remote: {
url: '/myurl?par=%QUERY',
wildcard: '%QUERY',
prepare: function (q, o) {
o.url = o.url.replace('%QUERY', encodeURIComponent(q));
o.cache = false;
return o;
}
}
prefetch: {
url: '/myurl2',
ttl: 300000, //5min
thumbprint: userName,
prepare: function(o) {
o.cache = false;
return o;
}
