Store Library
summary
NYT’s Store is an open source library that implements a 2-level caching + network flow with RxJava + Guava + OKIO, a file-system persistor, OKHttp BufferedSource parsing, and memory cache policies. It exposes get vs fetch semantics (get may return stale in-memory or disk data; fetch forces network), collapses duplicate in-flight requests so 20 identical calls become one, and provides a memory + disk cache with stream events. It ships in the NYT app and is used for real features (intern-built bestsellers) to improve startup and offline behavior.
