To use the GitHub Actions cache, you need to set SCCACHE_GHA_ENABLED
to on
to enable it.
By changing SCCACHE_GHA_VERSION
, we can purge all the cache.
This cache type will need tokens like ACTIONS_CACHE_URL
and ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN
to work. You can set these environmental variables using the following step in a GitHub Actions workflow.
- name: Configure sccache
uses: actions/github-script@v7
with:
script: |
core.exportVariable('ACTIONS_CACHE_URL', process.env.ACTIONS_CACHE_URL || '');
core.exportVariable('ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN', process.env.ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN || '');
In case sccache reaches the rate limit of the service, the build will continue, but the storage might not be performed.
