Description

Migrated issue, originally created by Anonymous

CacheRegion.cache_on_arguments() has a parameter should_cache_fn which is used to control if content should be cached or not. the .refresh() method on the decorated function ignores it and goes directly to the backend.set()

Research direction

Start with CacheRegion.cache_on_arguments() and the decorated function's refresh() method, then trace how should_cache_fn is handled during normal caching. Update the refresh path so its behavior matches that contract, and verify that the backend is only updated when should_cache_fn permits caching.
