## C# - NuGet
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
2019-11-05 17:04:07 +00:00
Using [NuGet lock files ](https://docs.microsoft.com/nuget/consume-packages/package-references-in-project-files#locking-dependencies ):
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
2019-12-13 01:03:43 +00:00
```yaml
2020-05-26 16:45:38 +00:00
- uses: actions/cache@v2
2019-12-13 01:03:43 +00:00
with:
path: ~/.nuget/packages
key: ${{ runner.os }}-nuget-${{ hashFiles('**/packages.lock.json') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-nuget-
```
Depending on the environment, huge packages might be pre-installed in the global cache folder.
2020-07-15 14:36:12 +00:00
With `actions/cache@v2` you can now exclude unwanted packages with [exclude pattern ](https://github.com/actions/toolkit/tree/main/packages/glob#exclude-patterns )
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
2020-05-26 18:58:07 +00:00
```yaml
- uses: actions/cache@v2
with:
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
path: |
2020-05-26 18:58:07 +00:00
~/.nuget/packages
!~/.nuget/packages/unwanted
key: ${{ runner.os }}-nuget-${{ hashFiles('**/packages.lock.json') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-nuget-
```
Or you could move the cache folder like below.
2019-12-16 00:45:29 +00:00
>Note: This workflow does not work for projects that require files to be placed in user profile package folder
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00

## Go - Modules
2019-11-05 16:03:56 +00:00
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
### Linux

```
2020-01-10 22:07:52 +00:00
## Haskell - Cabal
We cache the elements of the Cabal store separately, as the entirety of `~/.cabal` can grow very large for projects with many dependencies.
```yaml
2020-06-18 17:37:50 +00:00
- name: Cache ~/.cabal/packages, ~/.cabal/store and dist-newstyle
uses: actions/cache@v2
2020-01-10 22:07:52 +00:00

2020-05-26 16:45:38 +00:00
path: |
~/.cabal/packages
~/.cabal/store
dist-newstyle
2021-12-30 10:54:15 +00:00
key: ${{ runner.os }}-${{ matrix.ghc }}-${{ hashFiles('**/*.cabal', '**/cabal.project', '**/cabal.project.freeze') }}
restore-keys: ${{ runner.os }}-${{ matrix.ghc }}-
```
2020-01-10 22:07:52 +00:00
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
## Java - Gradle
2021-05-13 19:40:34 +00:00
>Note: Ensure no Gradle daemons are running anymore when your workflow completes. Creating the cache package might fail due to locks being held by Gradle. Refer to the [Gradle Daemon documentation ](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/gradle_daemon.html ) on how to disable or stop the Gradle Daemons.
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
```yaml

## Java - Maven

```
2019-11-05 17:04:07 +00:00
## Node - npm
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
2019-11-08 02:04:46 +00:00
For npm, cache files are stored in `~/.npm` on Posix, or `%AppData%/npm-cache` on Windows. See https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/cache#cache
2020-06-15 19:55:57 +00:00
If using `npm config` to retrieve the cache directory, ensure you run [actions/setup-node ](https://github.com/actions/setup-node ) first to ensure your `npm` version is correct.
2019-11-08 02:04:46 +00:00
>Note: It is not recommended to cache `node_modules` , as it can break across Node versions and won't work with `npm ci`
### macOS and Ubuntu
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
```yaml
2020-05-26 16:45:38 +00:00

path: ~/.npm
key: ${{ runner.os }}-node-${{ hashFiles('**/package-lock.json') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-node-
```
### Windows
```yaml
2020-03-19 02:05:56 +00:00
- name: Get npm cache directory
id: npm-cache
run: |
echo "::set-output name=dir::$(npm config get cache)"

### Using multiple systems and `npm config`
2020-02-14 14:50:11 +00:00
```yaml

```
2019-11-05 17:04:07 +00:00
## Node - Yarn
2019-11-13 15:18:47 +00:00
The yarn cache directory will depend on your operating system and version of `yarn` . See https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/cli/cache/ for more info.
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
```yaml

## Node - Yarn 2
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
2020-07-02 13:43:52 +00:00
The yarn 2 cache directory will depend on your config. See https://yarnpkg.com/configuration/yarnrc#cacheFolder for more info.
```yaml
- name: Get yarn cache directory path
id: yarn-cache-dir-path
run: echo "::set-output name=dir::$(yarn config get cacheFolder)"

2020-02-26 22:43:11 +00:00
## OCaml/Reason - esy
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
2020-02-26 22:43:11 +00:00
Esy allows you to export built dependencies and import pre-built dependencies.
```yaml
- name: Restore Cache
id: restore-cache
2020-05-26 16:45:38 +00:00
uses: actions/cache@v2

```yaml
2019-11-05 21:18:49 +00:00

restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-composer-
```
2019-11-13 15:55:05 +00:00
## Python - pip
For pip, the cache directory will vary by OS. See https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/reference/pip_install/#caching
Locations:
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
- Ubuntu: `~/.cache/pip`
- Windows: `~\AppData\Local\pip\Cache`
- macOS: `~/Library/Caches/pip`
2019-11-13 15:55:05 +00:00
### Simple example
2021-06-01 13:39:29 +00:00
2019-11-13 15:55:05 +00:00
```yaml
2020-05-26 16:45:38 +00:00
- uses: actions/cache@v2
2019-11-13 15:55:05 +00:00
with:
path: ~/.cache/pip
key: ${{ runner.os }}-pip-${{ hashFiles('**/requirements.txt') }}
restore-keys: |
${{ runner.os }}-pip-
```
Replace `~/.cache/pip` with the correct `path` if not using Ubuntu.
### Multiple OS's in a workflow
```yaml
2020-05-26 16:45:38 +00:00

2020-04-29 18:58:19 +00:00
### Using pip to get cache location
> Note: This requires pip 20.1+
```yaml
- name: Get pip cache dir
id: pip-cache

## R - renv
2021-10-22 14:22:58 +00:00
For renv, the cache directory will vary by OS. The `RENV_PATHS_ROOT` environment variable is used to set the cache location. Have a look at https://rstudio.github.io/renv/reference/paths.html#details for more details.

## Ruby - Bundler
2019-10-31 15:36:50 +00:00
2021-01-28 11:52:25 +00:00
Caching gems with Bundler correctly is not trivial and just using `actions/cache`
is [not enough ](https://github.com/ruby/setup-ruby#caching-bundle-install-manually ).
Instead, it is recommended to use `ruby/setup-ruby` 's
[`bundler-cache: true` option ](https://github.com/ruby/setup-ruby#caching-bundle-install-automatically )
whenever possible:
