Cache information responses from REST sources by JohnMcPMS · Pull Request #5726 · microsoft/winget-cli
Change
Store and use the /information response from REST sources per their cache-control header.
At the base of this change is a new type of setting stream: Encrypted. These settings are encrypted to the user and machine that the data is stored on.
Based on the log file from running with and without a cached value, the time between close log lines dropped from 189 ms to 8 ms for the msstore source. This time saving should be in effect for the large majority of uses of WinGet.
Validation
Added tests across various levels of the change.
Manually verified functionality of CLI.
