What's the best practice for caching compilation of Rust dependencies?

• crane

  12 756 9.2 Nix

  A Nix library for building cargo projects. Never build twice thanks to incremental artifact caching.

https://github.com/ipetkov/crane seems very promising

• sccache

  71 5,365 9.4 Rust

  Sccache is a ccache-like tool. It is used as a compiler wrapper and avoids compilation when possible. Sccache has the capability to utilize caching in remote storage environments, including various cloud storage options, or alternatively, in local storage.

  

I thought sccache also supports remote compilation. But maybe I misunderstood https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/blob/main/docs/DistributedQuickstart.md

  Discontinued (currently vapourware) A cargo subcommand to quickly bootstrap your dependency tree on first build

  

Hi. Sorry I'm late to the party. The approach that you suggest is similar to something that I was considering as well. https://github.com/cargo-quick/cargo-quickbuild contains a description of what I think you would need. Basically, it would look a bit like cargo-chef, but with a way to parse the crate dependency graph and split it out into subtrees.
