Bases: astropy.config.paths._SetTempPath
Context manager to set a temporary path for the Astropy download cache, primarily for use with testing (though there may be other applications for setting a different cache directory, for example to switch to a cache dedicated to large files).
If the path set by this context manager does not already exist it will be created, if possible.
This may also be used as a decorator on a function to set the cache path just within that function.
Parameters: | path : str
delete : bool, optional
