Gathering the metadata of repos and projects requires a significant number of HTTP calls and is therefore slow and expensive. When hacking on www-generator.py the ability to skip these calls can save a lot of time allowing much more rapid iteration. So add a persistent cache for this data, using the percache Python module. This is mostly run in the gate, where the cache will be deleted on each run. Documentation contributors running this locally may occasionally need to manually remove the cache file, although governance data generally changes slow enough that this is expected to be a rare corner case. As noted by the comment in _get_official_repos(), in the future we may add support for loading governance data from a local repo, thereby skipping the need for slow HTTP calls. But for now this is a simpler solution. Change-Id: Ib52171625e37169d00da03f436b58456c103b04d |
