    # Remote Resource mechanism
 
    Most of the parametrizations Lamarr relies on are committed and maintained in
    remote repositories. The PyLamarr.RemoteResource class implements a simple
    caching mechanism to download the remote parametrizations on demand in case they
    are not available locally. A hash of the URL identifying the remote resource is
    used to represent the local cache of the remote resource.
    Note that in case the remote resource is updated without modifying its URL,
    the local cache is not automatically updated.
 
 
    ### Example.
    Consider the file `PrimaryVertexSmearing.db` encoding the parametrizations for
    Primary Vertex reconstruction, and made available publicly here:
    `https://github.com/LamarrSim/SQLamarr/raw/master/temporary_data/PrimaryVertex/PrimaryVertexSmearing.db`
 
    The following snippet of code enables caching the file locally:
    ```python
    from PyLamarr import RemoteResource
    url = ("https://github.com/LamarrSim/SQLamarr/raw/master/temporary_data/"
           "PrimaryVertex/PrimaryVertexSmearing.db")
 
    pv_params = RemoteResource(url)
 
    # Now the file might not be available locally, but a lazy download is triggered
    # when accessing its path:
 
    import sqlite3
    with sqlite3.connect(pv_params.file) as db:
        # ... do something ...
    ```
 
    Now, in case the remote file is updated, it may be necessary to download the
    updated version. This can be achieved forcing the download with:
    ```python
    pv_params.download(force=True)
    ```
 
    or, replacing the connection attempt in the previous example:
    ```python
    import sqlite3
    with sqlite3.connect(pv_params.download(force=True).file) as db:
        # ... do something ...
    ```
 
 
    ### Accessing local resources
    A local resourcce can be encapsulated inside `RemoteResource` which is
    the expected format for most of the parametrization data in `PyLamarr`.
 
    For example, if testing your local version of `MyPrimaryVertexSmearing.db`,
    you can write
    ```python
    pv_params = RemoteResource("file://MyPrimaryVertexSmearing.db")
 
    # Now the file might not be available locally, but a lazy download is triggered
    # when accessing its path:
 
    import sqlite3
    with sqlite3.connect(pv_params.file) as db:
        #...
    ```
 
    Note, however, that forcing the download of a local resource would raise an
    Exception.
 
 
    ### Implicit conversion from URL
    Most of the parametrizations relying on external dependencies expect an
    instance of `RemoteResource` identifying the file to obtain the parametrization
    from. An implicit cast from sring to `RemoteResource` enables passing directly
    a string with a URL (possibly pointing to a local file), which gets
    transparently converted into a `RemoteResource` instance and used in the file.
