Cache Date in return

[rakibtg]

@stickypages We can use something like filemtime.

filemtime — Gets file modification time

Can I know about your use case?

[stickypages]

Yeah but I don't know which file it is... More so to display a date that says, "last updated". Does that help?

[rakibtg]

@stickypages I think you can add a custom property in your document like "updatedAt" and update the datetime manually. The cache files are not predictable and you will not get a proper datetime on the purpose of showing "last updated".

[stickypages]

Yeah but I don't know which file to require est to get the datetime

@stickypages are you searching for something like this? #47

[stickypages]

No, just want to know the date when the cache was last updated. Basically the file timestamp but I can't call on the file because I don't know which file to check, there are tons of files.

[Timu57]

Ok, can you please tell us your use case? For what do you need the timestamp of cached files? We need to know that, to build/ provide a good method for you.

Thank you

[stickypages]

Yeah, like I was mentioning. it's nice to know when a cache file was updated.
Example: Am I receiving fresh data, or cached data. I don't have a way to know. Also, it's nice to know when the latest file was updated so I can reference it.

[Timu57]

@stickypages I think I get what you are trying to achieve with the date of the cached file.

Instead of giving the date and letting the user handle the caching by its own we probably should optimize/ redo the caching system to consider updated content.

I will make a new issue for that.

#62 Hope this could help you.

I will close this issue, feel free to re-open!
