Can we cache all the questions?

🚀 Feature Proposal

Cache all the questions.

Motivation

Cache all the questions so we can work on these questions offline.

Contribution

I can help to analyze the request in order to build web scraper

The question is in fact cached (by leetcode-cli), and you can find them in $HOME/.lc/leetcode/cache.

Is there any other inconvenience you find in solving the problems offline?

Sorry I didn't mean cache it manually.
Right now we can only cache the question we browsered.
Is it feasible to cache all the questions by one time?

[Vigilans]

The best way would be to fetch all the question details by one query, but leetcode-cli does not provide such functionality.

A workaround would be to trigger leetcode-cli show <id> -x concurrently, but I don't know its cost and whether it is abuse...If you're of enough interest, you could take a stab at a PR to implement it.

Besides, there are plans to migrate from leetcode-cli to an independent library recently, maybe this functionality could be well implemented there.
