PHP on nginx with fastcgi-caching

I have a little VPS that hosts my blog and other various small projects. With a recent nginx update, my configuration files stopped working and I had to cut fastcgi-caching from my setup. I spent about 2 hours searching for this, so I am putting it up here - in case anyone has uses for it. This setup uses php5-fpm and nginx.

cache.conf

Include this from the nginx.conf (include /etc/nginx/cache.conf).

fastcgi_cache_path /var/lib/nginx/cache levels=1:2 keys_zone=DEFAULT:10m inactive=5m; fastcgi_cache_key "$scheme$request_method$host$request_uri";
map $request_method $no_cache {
    default 0;
    POST 1;
    #no caching on post
}
map $http_cookie $no_cache {
    default 0;
    ~SESS 1;
    # PHP Session cookie
}

php.conf

Include this from site configuration (for example: /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/example.com)

location ~ \.php {
    fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
    # A handy function that became available in 0.7.31 that breaks down
    # The path information based on the provided regex expression
    # This is handy for requests such as file.php/some/paths/here/ fastcgi_param PATH_INFO
    $fastcgi_path_info;

}
