v0.4.0

DataCaches v0.4.0

Diff since v0.3.0

Majority of updates dealing with better back-end cache management and auto-management, including TTL, auto-expiration by LRU etc.
Conceptual separation between user-labeled namespace and auto-labeled namespace caches allow users curate their entries without pollution from auto-mechanisms.
As usual, full migration pathways provided/documented/(semi-)automated.

• Register new release (#6)

v0.3.0

DataCaches v0.3.0

Diff since v0.2.0

(for more details, see CHANGELOG.md)

Added

• DataCaches.CacheAssets to provide a filesystem-like interface to managing
  cache assets within a single cache: CacheAssets.ls, CacheAssets.rm, etc.

• DataCaches.Caches to provide a filesystem-like interface to managing
  different caches within the package depot scratchspace: Caches.ls, Caches.rm, etc.

Breaking changes

Unfortunately, to support consistent view on cache assets and cache stores, the following changes need to be made:

• caches/local/ renamed to caches/user/: Named user stores (DataCache(:name))
  now live under <depot>/caches/user/<name>/ instead of <depot>/caches/local/<name>/.
  Depot.ls() default storetype changed from :local to :user.
  Depot._local_dir() renamed to Depot._user_dir() (internal).

• Default cache relocated to caches/user/_DEFAULT: The no-argument DataCache()
  constructor now stores data at <depot>/caches/user/_DEFAULT/ instead of
  <depot>/caches/defaultcache/. DataCache(), DataCache(:_DEFAULT), and
  default_filecache() all resolve to the same store. Existing v0.2.0 users should
  call migrate_v020_defaultcache() to transfer cached data to the new location.

Automigration functions are provided here to move the default cache from pre-0.3.0. See CHANGELOG.md for details.

v0.2.0

DataCaches v0.2.0

Diff since v0.1.0

Breaking changes (see CHANGELOG.md)

Moves the default cache store into the Julia depot scratchspace via Scratch.jl (auto-cleanup on uninstall, DATACACHES_DEFAULT_STORE env var override). NOTE: A migrate_legacy_defaultcache() helper migrates v0.1.0 caches to the new location.

Added

• Adopted Scratch.jl infrastructure for default internal/under-the-hood cache filesystem management.
• Adds named local stores (DataCache(:symbol)), module-scoped caches (scratch_datacache!(uuid, key)), and a Depot submodule with filesystem-style depot management (Depot.ls, Depot.mv, Depot.cp, Depot.rm).
• Cache entries now have stable sequence indices (read/delete by index, reindexcache!() to compact).
• The cache index stores relative paths for portability.

Closed issues:

• Register initial release (#3)

v0.1.0
