pyControl v2 cache duration: do you have preferences?

I'll definitely be adding a cache=None option here (currently enabled by default, but I'll now make a kwarg out of it) so that should be fine. Now, regarding automatically detecting a newer WSDL, the answer is no - the cache is read from disk and pyControl wouldn't be able to figure out what is newer and what is not as it's reading from disk and not checking the remote system. There are two ways to potentially address this:

 

 

1) I already plan to add a cache flush function, probably in the utils module. This should be handy for cache rebuilds, etc.

 

2) You can subclass the suds cache class and easily create a custom cache with specific timeout values (e.g. 0=indefinite, hours, weeks, months) values/attributes.

 

 

Once I add the cache='blah' kwarg, 2 will be easily satisfied - I'll do some testing and give some examples in the forums, docs, and codeshare.

 

 

Does this sound reasonable?
