NutsNews iOS Cache Update

Section titled “NutsNews iOS Cache Update”

This bundle adds a 15-minute on-device disk cache for /api/articles responses.

Changed files:

  • NutsNews/NutsNews/Networking/NutsNewsArticlesCache.swift — new cache actor that stores raw article API responses in the app Caches directory.
  • NutsNews/NutsNews/Networking/NutsNewsAPIClient.swift — checks the app cache before making the network request; falls back to stale cache if the API/network fails.
  • NutsNews/NutsNews/Features/Feed/ArticleFeedViewModel.swift — normal initial loads use cache; manual reload can bypass it.
  • NutsNews/NutsNews/Features/Feed/FeedView.swift — pull-to-refresh and retry force a fresh network fetch.

Behavior:

  • Normal app launch/re-entry uses cached article API responses for up to 15 minutes.
  • Manual pull-to-refresh bypasses the cache and gets fresh data.
  • If the network/API is temporarily unavailable, the app can show the last known good cached response instead of an empty feed.
  • Category pages and paginated pages get separate cache files.
