aoc-cache

A way of caching your input from the great and popular [Advent of Code].

This is an attempt to reduce server load for the creator.

Downloads using reqwest, stores cache in temporary files using scratch.

Since we use scratch, a cargo clean will remove the cache and cause new downloads for new runs.

Example

rust use aoc_cache::get_input_from_web_or_cache; // my.cookie is a file containing the cookie string. const MY_COOKIE: &str = include_str!("my.cookie"); let input: Result<String, aoc_cache::Error> = // Grabs from web if get_input_from_web_or_cache( // it's the first run "https://adventofcode.com/2022/day/1/input", MY_COOKIE); let input: Result<String, aoc_cache::Error> = // Grabs from cache get_input_from_web_or_cache( "https://adventofcode.com/2022/day/1/input", MY_COOKIE);
