monadium VS sccache

Here's one of the modules: https://github.com/marcusradell/monadium/blob/main/src/domain/identities/mod.rs

If you are setting up CI/CD, here's an example of how I do it based on feedback here on Reddit: https://github.com/marcusradell/monadium/blob/main/.github/workflows/cd.yml.

I have two versions for comparison, one that caches and one that doesn't. Both are called "Docker Copy Only" and are based on your yaml and docker setup as seen here: https://github.com/marcusradell/monadium/actions. Any clue why the caches isn't kicking in?

I'm doing my first (web server) project in Rust: https://github.com/marcusradell/monadium/.

Worth noting that the first commit in sccache git repository was in 2014 (https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/commit/115016e0a83b290dc2...). So I suppose that what "happened" happened waay back.

If you have lots of shared dependencies, maybe try sccache?

I'm going to set up sccache [0] to use it tomorrow. We use MSVC, so EFS is off the cards.

I think the primary benefit of pre-built procmacros will be for build servers which don't use a persistent cache (like sccache), since they have to compile all dependencies every time. But IMO improved support for persistent caches would be a better investment compared to adding support for pre-built procmacros.

https://github.com/mozilla/sccache is another option which addresses the use cases of both icecream and ccache (and also supports Rust, and cloud storage of artifacts, if those are useful for you)

That being said a compilation cache, eg the de-facto standard for Rust: sccache (https://github.com/mozilla/sccache) will help to compile and store some of the build artifacts centralized - still for each crate version + build profile (RUSTFLAGS) combination.

That's definitely not my experience. Never had any issue running Rust on Windows. You just download and run rustup-init.exe, then updating is simply a matter of rustup update. Documentation generation is built in (cargo doc) and just a case of annotating code with triple-/ markdown comments and then running that command. sccache works fine for me (just need to set RUSTC_WRAPPER=/path/to/sccache). And the error messages from rustc are by far the best of any compiler I've used. Not sure how they're unhelpful, they tend to explain step-by-step what the problem is and how to fix it.
