Add cache plugin. #3799
-
|
I had readed woodpecker's document, it seems there has no a plugin provide cache operator. I checked the github action and found that the woodpeck's plugin lacks a post action. This means I have to restore and store manually. Are there plans to provide support for the cache plugin? In my environment, without cache, CI often fails due to network problems. |

Could you please elaborate what you mean by "cache plugins"? General support for caching is definitely planned, but nobody is working on this. Take a look at the other issues and discussions for more info. |

I used github cache plugin much: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/cache It can restore cache at the start of pipeline, then store cache at then end of pipeline. |

Are we talking about woodpecker? Using s3 artifact does simulate the behavior of cache plugin, but it is not very convenient to use. I need to manually delete the directory, download the artifact, unzip it, and then upload it. |

Many wants the cache. Each has own description of cache. Define the "cache".
Yes, I suppose.
Which directory?
Seems, not manually: https://developer.harness.io/docs/continuous-integration/use-ci/build-and-upload-artifacts/upload-artifacts/upload-artifacts-to-s3/#download-artifacts-from-s3
Yes, if you zipped it at upload. Or untar, or un-7z.
That exactly the plugin's responsibility... That said, you can request downloading functionality from https://github.com/woodpecker-ci/plugin-s3, or archiving from https://github.com/drone-plugins/drone-s3. |

Maybe you want to proxy maven repository via Nexus. In that case you don't need a plugin.
Or maybe you want "cache" docker images. I don't know.
Yes, I suppose.
Which directory?
Why do you need delete directory in WP's workspace, if it is created each time pipeline runs?
Does "manually" applies to all verbs (delete, download, unzip, upload) or only to "delete" part?
