In nealrichardson/httpcache: Query Cache for HTTP Clients

httpcache 1.2.0

• Update tests to use latest features and function naming from httptest

httpcache 1.1.0

• Remove cachedDownload. Use GET(url, config=write_disk(destfile)) instead, which caches normally.

httpcache 1.0.2

• Minor adjustment to a validation function's error message format to adapt to changes in R's development version.

httpcache 1.0.0

New cached request functions:

• cachedPOST() to cache results of a POST request for resources where a POST gets content and does not alter server state.
• cachedDownload to cache the result of download.file.

Functions to access the cache API:

• hitCache() to check for the existence of a cache entry
• getCache() to read it
• setCache() to set a cache value
• buildCacheKey() to construct a cache key that incorporates the request's query parameters and body.

Tools to save and restore cached queries across R sessions:

• saveCache()
• loadCache()

Logging improvements:

• Add content-length and all curl request timings (not just "total") to log messages.
• Trim trailing whitespace in log messages
• Fix loadLogfile() for when reading a log with only CACHE messages

httpcache 0.1.8

• Include milliseconds in timestamps

httpcache 0.1.6

• Improve error message for when a non-character input is given to GET()

httpcache 0.1.4

• Ensure that caching is on by default
• Change GET() not to check cache if an uncached request is made. Previously, uncached() checked cache but did not write to the cache.
• Fix regular expression matching in popQuery
• Improve escaping of characters in URLs for dropping cache by pattern
• Add vignette

httpcache 0.1.2

• Revise and resubmit to CRAN

httpcache 0.1.0

• Extract code and tests from the crunch package
• Document and export functions for caching, invalidating, and logging
