1 Introduction

http-get-cache

http-get-cache is a Common Lisp library based on the Drakma HTTP client for caching HTTP GET responses.

http-get-cache depends on Drakma and Bordeaux Threads.

http-get-cache is being developed with SBCL, CCL, and LispWorks on OS X. http-get-cache is being deployed with SBCL on FreeBSD/AMD64 and Linux/AMD64.

Installation

(ql:quickload "http-get-cache")

Example

(defvar *cache* (http-get-cache:make-cache 60))

(http-get-cache:http-get "http://planet.lisp.org/" *cache*)

5.1 Exported definitions

5.1.1 Functions

Function: cache-ttl INSTANCE

Function: (setf cache-ttl) VALUE INSTANCE

Package: http-get-cache
Source: http-get-cache.lisp (file)

Function: http-get URI CACHE

Return the RESPONSE for the supplied URI. If a fresh RESPONSE for the URI exists in the CACHE then return that RESPONSE. If a stale RESPONSE for the URI exists in the CACHE then attempt to validate the RESPONSE with the origin server using the "If-None-Match" request header and the "Etag" header of the RESPONSE and, if successful, update the headers of the cached RESPONSE and return it. If no RESPONSE for the URI exists in the CACHE then make an HTTP GET request for the URI and, if successful, cache and return the RESPONSE; otherwise, signal an error of type HTTP-GET-NOT-FOUND>

If URI is neither a PURI:URI nor a STRING, signal an error of type TYPE-ERROR. If CACHE is not a CACHE, signal an error of type TYPE-ERROR.

Unlike an RFC 7234 compliant HTTP cache, HTTP-GET-CACHE expires a stored RESPONSE according to the time the RESPONSE was received and the CACHE TTL. HTTP-GET-CACHE ignores the "Expires" header field and the "max-age" cache directive of the HTTP request and response.

Package: http-get-cache
Source: http-get-cache.lisp (file)

Function: make-cache &optional TTL

Create and return a CACHE with the optionally supplied TTL. TTL defaults to 300.
