Gradle - GCSBuildCache

This Gradle plugin provides a build cache implementation that uses Google Cloud Storage to store build artifacts.

Options

The build cache takes the following options:

Option	Description
bucket	Name of the Google Cloud Storage bucket (required)
serviceAccountCredentialsFilePath	The path to the JSON key file of the service account to use (optional)
serviceAccountCredentialsJSON	The JSON key of the service account to use (optional)
expireAfterSeconds	Amount of time to pass after which a cached artifact expires and is removed from the cache (optional)

When both serviceAccountCredentialsFilePath and serviceAccountCredentialsJSON are not provided, this plugin defaults to the Google Cloud SDK default credentials.

Using Google Cloud SDK default credentials

To use the Google Cloud SDK default credentials, you need to authenticate with the Google Cloud SDK.

First, follow the install guide to install the Google Cloud SDK.

Next, run the following command in a terminal:

gcloud init

When prompted, choose the project ID where you created your GCS bucket.

Finally, run the following command in a terminal:

gcloud auth application-default login

Now you're ready to use the Gradle remote build cache.

Usage

Add this plugin to your settings.gradle.kts as follows:

plugins {
    id("com.ridedott.gradle-gcs-build-cache") version "1.0.1"
}

buildCache {
    remote<com.ridedott.gradle.buildcache.GCSBuildCache> {
        bucket = "my-bucket-name" // required
        serviceAccountCredentialsFilePath = 'my-key.json' // optional
        serviceAccountCredentialsJSON = "{ ... }" // optional
        expireAfterSeconds = 60 * 60 * 24 // optional
    }
}
