Related to forum thread https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/getjson-cache-raises-file-name-too-long/7373

When getting JSON data from an API with a very long url, the download runs fine, but if the cache path is too long, a 'file name too long' error is raised.

Potential Solution

rather than using the full URL as the filename, you instead used a hash (doesnt matter which), then the filename will be far shorter, and a uniform length.
