Component body
This module creates a button called "Clear Varnish page cache" in the "shortcut-set-1" toolbar or under the 'Flush caches' section of the admin_menu ( if installed ).
When clicking the button, Varnish will receive the command to purge the cache for the page that the user is viewing at that time.
Why was this module created ?
In high traffic sites, it gets really expensive to do a "drush cc all" call every time a content editor wants to update an article, block, etc. Therefor, this little module comes to the rescue.
How do I set it up ?
step 1. Download & enable the module
step 2. Go to "/admin/people/permissions" and tick the boxes for the respective user roles that will be allowed to use the button.
step 3. Save the permissions.
