Is there a way I can log when python "requests-cache" hits the cache?

Question

I'm using https://requests-cache.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html and I want to know when the cache is hit vs. the web.

Answer 1

According to the source code, there should be a .from_cache flag set on the response object:

In [1]: import requests

In [2]: import requests_cache

In [3]: requests_cache.install_cache('demo_cache')

In [4]: requests.get("https://stackoverflow.com").from_cache
Out[4]: False

In [5]: requests.get("https://stackoverflow.com").from_cache
Out[5]: True
