Purge Core Tags - Exclude by Bundle

Exclude specific bundles from being queued by Purge’s Core Tags queuer. Filters entity cache tag invalidations so selected bundles do not enqueue purge items. Simple admin UI; no hacks to contrib; Drupal 10/11.

Features

• Exclude bundles (content types, vocabularies, media types, etc.) from Purge queueing.
• Decorates purge_queuer_coretags.queuer; no patching of contrib.
• Understands and filters:
  • Entity tags: entity_type:ID (e.g., node:123).
  • List tags: entity_type_list.
  • Bundle-scoped list tags: entity_type_list:bundle (e.g., node_list:article).
• Conservative behavior on deletes/unknown bundles to avoid stale caches.
• Configuration UI to pick excluded bundles per entity type.
• Dependency injection, bulk loading; lightweight and fast for editorial flows.
• Ideal when only certain content types should trigger CDN/varnish purges.

Post-Installation

1. Enable the module.
2. Ensure Purge and Core Tags queuer are enabled.
3. Go to: /admin/config/development/performance/purge-coretags-exclude-bundle.
4. Select the bundles you want to exclude from purge queueing and save.
5. Perform CRUD operations; excluded bundles will no longer enqueue purge items.

No additional UI is added beyond the settings page. Works automatically once configured.

Additional Requirements

Similar projects

You can achieve related behavior by writing a custom Purge queuer plugin. This project is different because it decorates the Core Tags queuer, keeping your stack unchanged while adding per-bundle filtering.
