Use conditional requests #13

Open twodayslate opened 4 years ago

twodayslate commented 4 years ago

When communicating with the GitHub team they recommended using conditional requests when parsing packages. This would help with any API rate limiting issues.

Currently whenever a package is viewed that is an API request.

Instead it should be a database lookup, if the conditional request does not say there is an update.

If there is an update should parse the new package. tightly coupled with #19
