use browser caching

[jankeromnes]

There should be an easy way to specify caching on certain files e.g. "this file should be updated every 2 weeks" or "yeah this is not going to change soon, cache it for eternity". It would definitely bring some speed to garden/tree!

Definitely.

Of course, we have access to the Ask object, so we can already do that easily.
What would be nice is to have sane defaults. Do you know what
defaults are in use in httpd and nginx (if there are any in nginx at all)?

[jankeromnes]

No idea, worth investigating :)

[jankeromnes]

Possible by using the ask object as follows:

ask.res.setHeader('Last-Modified', new Date().toGMTString());

Closing.
