Short question: what caching packages are available for Rails? Details: My application requires data scraped from various web sites. To date, I''ve used scripts to fetch the page in question. Since I never want to hit a web site twice with the same query, I always save the raw HTML so I can parse it later (e.g. if I need to rebuild my database). I then parse the stored HTML and load the results into ActiveRecords: Web Site => [mechanize] => stored HTML => [parse and save!] => ActiveRecord I''d like to automate this so if MyActiveRecord.find() doesn''t turn up anything, it will first look for stored HTML, and if it can''t find any stored HTML will trigger a fetch from the web site. Before I write this from scratch, I should ask: are there any caching packages for Rails that do some or all of this?
