CACHE-LIST(1)

💖 CACHE-LIST(1) 💖

okay bestie, so we're looking at cache-list from the NorduGrid Users Manual — she's a little cutie whose whole job is peeking inside the A-REX cache and telling you what's in there. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

cache-list — list contents of the A-REX cache. that's it, that's the girl. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

cache-list [-h] [-c config_file] [url1 [url2 [...]]]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so first the little flags, they're lowkey important:

• -h — print short help. like, the tiny version. 🫶
• -c — configuration file from which to read cache information. and bestie, plot twist: you can set the ARC_CONFIG environment variable in place of this option. choose your fighter. ✨

now the actual vibe of the tool: cache-list is used to list all files present in each cache, or — if you hand her a list of URLs as arguments — she shows you the location of each URL in the cache if present. 💖

if no arguments are given, she prints to stdout each cache directory specified in the configuration file, then a list of files in each cache directory, and the corresponding URLs of their source, in this format:

url filename

and if arguments are given, each cache gets checked for the existence of each URL. if a URL is present in the cache, then the URL and filename get printed to stdout in the format above. no cap. 🌈

this tool can be useful for finding out if a certain URL is stored in the cache, or simply to give a list of all URLs in the cache. it's giving detective energy, fr fr. 🔍👑
