# Cachify
|
2
|
+
|
3
|
+
This is an extract from the Upton parser project. This serves as a drop-in
|
4
|
+
replacement for all ye download-cache-reading needs.
|
5
|
+
|
6
|
+
|
7
|
+
|
8
|
+
## Installation
|
9
|
+
|
10
|
+
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
|
11
|
+
|
12
|
+
gem 'cachify'
|
13
|
+
|
14
|
+
And then execute:
|
15
|
+
|
16
|
+
$ bundle
|
17
|
+
|
18
|
+
Or install it yourself as:
|
19
|
+
|
20
|
+
$ gem install cachify
|
21
|
+
|
22
|
+
## Usage
|
23
|
+
|
24
|
+
The primary interface is the `Cachify::Downloader` class. This takes three
|
25
|
+
paramters: a URI, a cache enable/disable option, and a cache location.
|
26
|
+
|
27
|
+
**options**
|
28
|
+
|
29
|
+
* URI: For now, only `get` requests work properly since the library
|
30
|
+
internally uses `open-uri` for the fetching part. You can encode the URL
|
31
|
+
as per your requirement.
|
32
|
+
|
33
|
+
* Cache enable/disable: This takes a truthy or falsy value. True-ish if
|
34
|
+
you want caching and false-ish if you don't want it.
|
35
|
+
|
36
|
+
* Cache location: This is the cache location. By default, this is set to
|
37
|
+
`Dir.tmpdir/cachify`.
|
38
|
+
|
39
|
+
# Checks if a cache is present. If not, the cache is created,
|
40
|
+
# the file is downloaded and is saved in the cache and is read.
|
41
|
+
Cachify::Downloader.new("http://www.example.com").get
|
42
|
+
|
43
|
+
# Ignores the cache and downloads the url for every call to #get
|
44
|
+
Cachify::Downloader.new("http://www.example.com", :cache => false).get
|
45
|
+
|
46
|
+
# Ignores the cache and downloads the url for every call and saves
|
47
|
+
# the cache to the "cache" folder in the same directory
|
48
|
+
Cachify::Downloader.new("http://www.example.com", :cache => false, :cache_location => "./cache").get
|
49
|
+
|
50
|
+
|
51
|
+
## Todo
|
52
|
+
|
53
|
+
1. #get reads the whole file. Ideally, this should just save the file in
|
54
|
+
the cache or memory. A #read method should read the file contents.
|

<p>In honor of Memorial Day, ProPublica and Marketplace will host a live discussion on the issues facing military members in debt.</p>
|
428
|
+
<p>The Military Lending Act of 2007 attempted to protect military members and their families from predatory loans. It capped annual percentage rates at 36 percent for payday and some auto-title loans.</p>
|
429
|
+
<p>In response, storefront lenders simply started selling other high-interest products. <a href="http://www.propublica.org/article/on-victory-drive-soldiers-defeated-by-debt">As our recent investigation found</a>, they cluster around military bases in Georgia and other places around the country.</p>
|
430
|
+
<p>And considering that indebted service members can lose their security clearance, the rise of these loans has larger implications for the military.</p>
|
431
|
+
<p>So how has the Military Lending Act actually affected indebted service members? What happens to soldiers who fall into debt? And should these protections be limited to military members only?</p>
|
432
|
+
<p>Join us Friday, May 24<sup>th</sup>, at 2 PM ET for a discussion with ProPublica’s Paul Kiel and Marketplace’s Mitchell Hartman on service member debt.</p>
|
433
|
+
<p>We encourage you to leave questions in advance in the comments below. You can also tweet questions with the hashtag #MilitaryLending.</p>
