The latest version of our CovidCases and CovidCasesWHO classes supports a pre-generated cache to speed up the processing. The cache is e.g. used on our internal webserver and during the generation of the daily maps.
The version also introduces the use of an environment variable to identify the directory name of previously generated data such as the Folium maps. It’s used in the CovidFoliumMapGenerator as well as in the latest version of the REST API.
The REST API of this version includes two new functions to provide access to maps generated by the CovidFoliumMapGenerator and the CSV file representing the above mentioned cache file.
