fname = request.form['q'] + str(search_query.pageno) + str(search_query.categories[0])

# Generate a hash of the search term

hash_object = hashlib.md5(fname.encode())

hex_dig = hash_object.hexdigest()

subdirectory = hex_dig[:2] # Use the first 2 characters of the hash as the subdirectory name

cache_dir = os.path.abspath(os.path.join("cache", subdirectory))

if not os.path.exists(cache_dir):

os.makedirs(cache_dir)
