Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
For some use cases, extenders may want to check if a resource exists in the filesystem without making a request to the remote system.
By default, our
stat
implementation for Data Sets and USS detects modification time changes for a resource and updates any applicable editors with new contents. We must keep this default behavior to continue supporting change detection.Describe the solution you'd like
Add support for a
local
query parameter for the URI so that, when called with a URI containing?local=true
, the filesystem will avoid making any remote requests. It should just check whether the resource already exists in the filesystem, returning the appropriate entry if found.Describe alternatives you've considered
