Caching issues in Gatsby v2 project

Question

I am getting errors running 'gatsby develop' on a Gatsby v2 site after deleting a few old pages.

error UNHANDLED EXCEPTION Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'D:\dev\my-gatsby-blog\public\static\d\573\path--- my-blog-post-d-5-f-ef1-Y9bdv2wHaTrcrlb7d2XeeQc6MYw.json'

My particular site is a blog that shows a list of posts on the index. Not sure if its relevant but the deleted pages are Markdown files resolved with the plugin gatsby-transformer-remark.

I was able to resolve this by deleting the contents of the .cache directory. Using rimraf I added a new script to my package.json to simplify the process in the future.

"cleancache": "rimraf .cache/*"
