ETag-based HTTP Response Caching
JSON →request-etag is a small, in-memory module designed for ETag-based HTTP response caching. It manages the `If-None-Match` header automatically for subsequent GET requests to the same URL, retrieving cached bodies for 304 Not Modified responses. The package currently leverages `lru-cache` for its underlying caching mechanism, which can be configured with options like `max` size. Crucially, `request-etag` defaults to using the `request` library as its HTTP client, which has been officially deprecated and is no longer maintained since February 11th, 2020. While an alternative HTTP client can be injected, it *must* adhere to the `request` library's API signature. The package's current stable version is 2.0.3, but its reliance on a deprecated core dependency suggests a slow or inactive release cadence, limiting its suitability for new projects. Its primary differentiator is its focused, lightweight approach to abstracting ETag caching logic.
