Karel Piwko commented on SHRINKWRAP-496:
----------------------------------------
My original plan was to have Arquillian Spacelift to be able to download and cache
artifact in Maven repo. However, it was never implemented :-(. Maybe kindly asking
[~mjobanek] would do the job :-).
I like [~alrubinger] comment about reproducibility. However, most of the testing assumes
that the same holds for Maven, Gradle and such and these tools are also caching - but they
have an option to force update. That said, it seems more reasonable to me to have such
functionality not a part of SW but rather as an extension to it.
Implement CacheUrlAsset
-----------------------
Key: SHRINKWRAP-496
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SHRINKWRAP-496
Project: ShrinkWrap
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: api
Affects Versions: 1.2.3
Reporter: Alex Soto
Priority: Minor
In ShrinkWrap UrlAsset downloaded an asset from a URL, which can be external and then it
creates the Archive element with that info. The problem is that sometimes you might want
to download a big file (2MB) to put inside an Archive, and this means that for each test
class that you execute you end up by downloading this file.
A possible solution could be create a CacheUrlAsset that downloads the content and stores
it in {java.io.tmp}/shrinkwrap so in successive calls before downloading the file again,
it can take it directly from cache directory.
