Use

To use the fall-through-cache, create a connection with a cacheConnection and a behavior that implements getData and getListData.

var QueryLogic = require("can-query-logic");

var queryLogic = new QueryLogic();

var cache = connect([
  require("can-local-store")
],{
  name: "todos",
  queryLogic: queryLogic
});

var todoConnection = connect([
   require("can-connect/fall-through-cache/fall-through-cache"),
   require("can-connect/data/url/url"),
   require("can-connect/constructor/constructor"),
   require("can-connect/constructor/store/store")
  ], {
  url: "/todos",
  cacheConnection: cache,
  queryLogic: queryLogic
});

Then, make requests. If the cache has the data, it will be returned immediately, and then the item or list updated later with the response from the base connection:

todoConnection.getList({due: "today"}).then(function(todos){

})

Demo

The following shows the fall-through-cache behavior.

Clicking "Completed" or "Incomplete" will make one of the following requests and display the results in the page:

todoConnection.getList({completed: true});
todoConnection.getList({completed: false});

If you click back and forth between "Completed" and "Incomplete" multiple times you'll notice that the old data is displayed immediately and then updated after about a second.
