Anyone using github actions. Can someone please guide me on how I can cache konan (kotlin native compiler) to quicken my CI process? CI keeps downloading the artifacts everytime it runs.

- name: Cache konan
      uses: actions/cache@v2
      with:
        path: |
          ~/.konan/dependencies
          ~/.konan/kotlin-native-macos-1.4.31
        key: ${{ runner.os }}-konan-1.4.31
        restore-keys: ${{ runner.os }}-konan-1.4.31

kotlin-native-macos - change for yourself

[andylamax]

Thank you so much

[andylamax]

what about ./konan/cache ?

[andylamax]

isn't that also important to cache?

[andylamax]

Also, can I add a wild card to 1.4.31 so as to be able to cache other kotlin versions as well without having to check the workfile?

[aleksey.tomin]

I don’t want to use cache from another version of kotlin

On my macbook:
0B ./cache
750M ./kotlin-native-prebuilt-macos-1.4.31
1.3G ./dependencies

Thanks fam

You have different key and restore-keys

[aleksey.tomin]

You should remove ${{ hashFiles('**/*.konan*') }} from key

[andylamax]

I see. Much much thanks. Funny thing is I am caching gradle like this and it works

- name: Cache Gradle
        uses: actions/cache@v2
        with:
          path: ~/.gradle/caches
          key: ${{ runner.os }}-gradle-${{ hashFiles('**/*.gradle*') }}
          restore-keys: |
            ${{ runner.os }}-gradle-

[andylamax]

I will match the key and restore-keys
