XF 2.0 Close a board progmatically?

[Jaxel]

I'm trying to close my forum through code...

        $this->repository('XF:Option')->updateOptions([
            'boardActive' => $active,
            'boardInactiveMessage' => $message
        ]);

Doing the above code, properly edits the settings in the admin CP. However, it doesn't actually close the forums. What step am I missing here?

Figured it out. You must then force an rebuild of the option cache:

$this->repository('XF:Option')->rebuildOptionCache();
