Cache Remote requests?

[lkhrs]

I’m reading through Content from an API and I’m curious how to handle caching while using Remote to avoid hitting API limits.

Is caching handled by Kirby automatically for Remote::get()? If so, how long is the response cached by default?

If it’s not handled by Kirby or the web server (nginx), how would I set up caching for a response? I’m assuming I’d need to write the response to a file, read it, and refetch it after an interval. I have to admit I’m learning PHP at the same time here

No.

Thank you so much for the prompt response! $cache->getOrSet() is excellent.
