sails-hook-webcache

Sails.js hook that provides web caching to compressed files on disk.

$3

npm install --save sails-hook-webcache

$3

By default, the compressed files are stored inside .tmp/webcache/ using the name {hostname}/{urlHash}.gz.

The cache root directory can be configured by changing the value of sails.config.webcache.cacheRoot.

#### Example

The request method performs the actual GET request and returns the response body like so:

``javascript
sails.hooks.webcache.request({
url: 'http://example.com', // Fetch this URL
followRedirect: false, // Should we follow 3xx HTTP responses?
reset: false // Should we fetch a new copy?
}, function (err, body) {
if (err) {
sails.log.error('Request failed.');
}
else {
// Do something with your body!
sails.log.info('Response body is ' + body.length + ' bytes.');
}
});
