API

The full API is available to read in the project files at API.md

Planned Features

• Add a different implementation of the requests module using some other library to include features like connection pooling
• (maybe) start including third party modules to add desireable features
• Stop using run of the mill implementations for everything

Important Note

The current implementation for the cache and config, opens the data file once if used, then the code will use that specific TextIOWrapper class to write and read etc. Unfortunately, there is no native method of closing this file class once the program execution has ended, leaving this up to CPython's garbage collecter. This technique is bad practice but should be better than constantly opening and closing each file (performance reasons).
