I’m generating QR codes as an SVG dynamically. The SVG is shown right away so every time a new SVG is created, I just replace the existing one. The problem I’m encountering is that even after replacing the old SVG it seems to be cached somewhere and serves the same SVG no matter what. How can I go about creating an SVG and saving it locally then serving it properly?
def qr_code(conn, %{"id" => id}) do
img_path = Application.app_dir(:EOS, "priv/static/images/mysvg.svg")
user = conn.assigns.current_user |> Repo.preload(organization: :wells)
well = App.get_well!(id)
File.rm(img_path)
well.well_code
|> QRCode.create(:high)
|> Result.and_then(&QRCode.Svg.save_as(&1, img_path))
conn = put_layout(conn, false)
render(conn, "qr_code.html", img_path: img_path)
end```
<img src="<%= Routes.static_url(EOSWeb.Endpoint, "/images/mysvg.svg") %>">```

The browser is caching it. Two ways to ‘bust’ the cache:
Plug.Static might also be caching it somewhere too, but I doubt it, someone else would know for sure though, but at the very least the browser will be caching it by default.

If it is getting generated dynamically, why do you need to save it to a file?
If you read the docs for
QRCode.Svg.to_base64it has an example of dynamically serving the QR code to an image tag. Alternatively, you could delivery it as an inline SVG generated fromQRCode.Svg.createand embed in the template. Let us know if you need some pointers for the second option. It looks like the first is directly supported by the library.
