oyster
======
oyster is a service for tracking regularly-accessed pages, a sort of proactive cache.
2011-09-20 21:15:15 +00:00
Oyster intends to provide a command line client for interacting with the list of tracked documents and web frontend for viewing the status and retrieving data. Behind the scenes it uses a celery queue to manage the documents it is tasked with keeping up to date.
