|
A GitHub Action that implements smart caching for rust/cargo projects with
|
|
|
|
|
sensible defaults.

|
|
|
```yaml
|
2020-12-08 06:56:50 +08:00
|
|
|
# selecting a toolchain either by action or manual `rustup` calls should happen
|
|
|
|
|
# before the plugin, as it uses the current rustc version as its cache key
|
|
|
|
|
- uses: actions-rs/toolchain@v1
|
|
|
|
|
with:
|
|
|
|
|

## Inputs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
: `key`
|
|
|
|
|
An optional key that is added to the automatic cache key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
: `working-directory`
|
|
|
|
|
The working directory the action operates in, is case the cargo project is not
|
|
|
|
|
located in the repo root.
|

## Cache Details
|
2020-10-04 00:39:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The cache currently caches the following directories:
|
2020-09-25 22:42:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2020-10-04 00:10:54 +08:00
|
|
|
- `~/.cargo/registry/index`
|
|
|
|
|
- `~/.cargo/registry/cache`
|
2020-11-21 19:21:26 +08:00
|
|
|
- `~/.cargo/git`
|
2020-10-04 00:10:54 +08:00
|
|
|
- `./target`
|
2020-09-25 22:42:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2020-10-04 00:10:54 +08:00
|
|
|
This cache is automatically keyed by:
|
2020-09-25 22:42:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2020-10-04 00:10:54 +08:00
|
|
|
- the github `job`,
|
|
|
|
|
- the rustc release / host / hash, and
|
|
|
|
|
- a hash of the `Cargo.lock` / `Cargo.toml` files.
|
2020-09-25 22:42:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2020-10-04 00:39:38 +08:00
|
|
|
An additional input `key` can be provided if the builtin keys are not sufficient.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before persisting, the cache is cleaned of intermediate artifacts and
|
|
|
|
|
anything that is not a workspace dependency.
|
|
|
|
|
In particular, no caching of workspace crates will be done. For
|
2020-10-04 00:10:54 +08:00
|
|
|
this reason, this action will automatically set `CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0` to
|
|
|
|
|
disable incremental compilation.
|
2020-10-04 00:39:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2020-11-21 19:21:26 +08:00
|
|
|
The action will try to restore from a previous `Cargo.lock` version as well, so
|
|
|
|
|
lockfile updates should only re-build changed dependencies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, the action automatically works around
|
|
|
|
|
[cargo#8603](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8603) /
|
|
|
|
|
[actions/cache#403](https://github.com/actions/cache/issues/403) which would
|
|
|
|
|
otherwise corrupt the cache on macOS builds.
