Oops, did I screw that bit up? Sorry.
One possible solution here is to cache the GET so it only occurs once.
def do_get(self):
# Do a HTTP GET request.
if hasattr(self, "_result"):
result = self._result
else:
print("Doing the GET call, please wait...")
time.sleep(1)
result = self._result = "Get stuff"
return result
You can give the cache a timestamp as well, in case you need to
invalidate the cache once it reaches a certain age. I'll leave that as an
exercise.
