Enhancement: Support If-Modified-Since

Open tempusfrangit opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

PGET should support if-modified-since logic

This should be opt-in via cli-option. This might be duplicate of #61

Is anyone working on this? If no, I'm happy to take that over.

It currently does not have anyone working on it.

There was some internal discussion about using mtime or ctime of the local file to create the IMS check. I don't think that discussion was captured in the issue.

There is also a question how the range-request stuff ends up working with IMS. I haven't looked into the standard for that.

In short, there has been already a lot of discussion about it that is not written down, and no one has come up with an implementation to argue about. This seems to me, as if I should not invest in it - am I right @tempusfrangit?
