# Base directories to strip from source paths during cache key
# computation.
#
# Similar to ccache's CCACHE_BASEDIR, but supports multiple paths.
#
# 'basedirs' enables cache hits across different absolute root
# paths when compiling the same source code, such as between
# parallel checkouts of the same project, Git worktrees, or different
# users in a shared environment.
# When multiple matching paths are provided, the longest prefix
# is used.
#
# Path matching is case-insensitive on Windows and case-sensitive on other OSes.
#
# Example:
#   basedir = ["/home/user/project"] results in the path prefix rewrite:
#   "/home/user/project/src/main.c" -> "src/main.c"
basedirs = ["/home/user/project"]
# basedirs = ["/home/user/project", "/home/user/workspace"]

sccache looks for its configuration file at the path indicated by env variable `SCCACHE_CONF`.

If no such env variable is set, sccache looks at default locations as below:
- Linux: `~/.config/sccache/config`
- macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Mozilla.sccache/config`
- Windows: `%APPDATA%\Mozilla\sccache\config\config`

The latest `cache.XXX` entries may be found here: https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/blob/ffe3070f77ef3301c8ff718316e4ab017ec83042/src/config.rs#L300.

## env

Whatever is set by a file based configuration, it is overruled by the env
configuration variables

Note that some env variables may need sccache server restart to take effect.

### misc

* `SCCACHE_ALLOW_CORE_DUMPS` to enable core dumps by the server
* `SCCACHE_CONF` configuration file path
* `SCCACHE_BASEDIRS` base directory (or directories) to strip from paths for cache key computation. This is similar to ccache's `CCACHE_BASEDIR` and enables cache hits across different absolute paths when compiling the same source code. Multiple directories can be separated by `;` on Windows hosts and by `:` on any other operating system. When multiple directories are specified, the longest matching prefix is used. Path matching is **case-insensitive** on Windows and **case-sensitive** on other operating systems. Environment variable takes precedence over file configuration. Only absolute paths are supported; relative paths will cause an error and prevent the server from start.
* `SCCACHE_CACHED_CONF`
* `SCCACHE_IDLE_TIMEOUT` how long the local daemon process waits for more client requests before exiting, in seconds. Set to `0` to run sccache permanently
* `SCCACHE_STARTUP_NOTIFY` specify a path to a socket which will be used for server completion notification
* `SCCACHE_MAX_FRAME_LENGTH` how much data can be transferred between client and server
* `SCCACHE_NO_DAEMON` set to `1` to disable putting the server to the background
* `SCCACHE_CACHE_MULTIARCH` to disable caching of multi architecture builds.
* `SCCACHE_CACHE_ZSTD_LEVEL` to set zstd compression level of cache. the range is `1-22` and default is `3`.
  - For example, in `10`, it have about 0.9x size with about 1.6x time than default `3` (tested with compiling sccache code)
  - This option will only applied to newly compressed cache and don't affect existing cache.
  - If you want to be apply to all cache, you should reset cache and make new cache.
* `SCCACHE_LOG_MILLIS` when set (to any value), enables millisecond precision timestamps in log output instead of the default second precision.
* `SCCACHE_ERROR_LOG` path to a file where sccache will log errors
* `SCCACHE_LOG` log level, accepting standard env_logger values, see [env_logger documentation](https://docs.rs/env_logger/latest/env_logger/#enabling-logging) for details

### cache configs

#### disk (local)

* `SCCACHE_DIR` local on disk artifact cache directory
* `SCCACHE_CACHE_SIZE` maximum size of the local on disk cache i.e. `2G` - default is 10G
* `SCCACHE_DIRECT` enable/disable preprocessor caching (see [the local doc](Local.md))
* `SCCACHE_LOCAL_RW_MODE` the mode that the cache will operate in (`READ_ONLY` or `READ_WRITE`)

#### s3 compatible

* `SCCACHE_BUCKET` s3 bucket to be used
* `SCCACHE_ENDPOINT` s3 endpoint
* `SCCACHE_REGION` s3 region, required if using AWS S3
* `SCCACHE_S3_USE_SSL` s3 endpoint requires TLS, set this to `true`
* `SCCACHE_S3_KEY_PREFIX` s3 key prefix (optional)

The endpoint used then becomes `${SCCACHE_BUCKET}.s3-{SCCACHE_REGION}.amazonaws.com`.
If you are not using the default endpoint and `SCCACHE_REGION` is undefined, it
will default to `us-east-1`.

#### cloudflare r2

* `SCCACHE_BUCKET` is the name of your R2 bucket.
* `SCCACHE_ENDPOINT` must follow the format of `https://<ACCOUNT_ID>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com`. Note that the `https://` must be included. Your account ID can be found [here](https://developers.cloudflare.com/fundamentals/get-started/basic-tasks/find-account-and-zone-ids/).
* `SCCACHE_REGION` should be set to `auto`.
* `SCCACHE_S3_KEY_PREFIX` s3 key prefix (optional).

#### redis

* `SCCACHE_REDIS` full redis url, including auth and access token/passwd (deprecated).
* `SCCACHE_REDIS_ENDPOINT` redis url without auth and access token/passwd - single node configuration.
* `SCCACHE_REDIS_CLUSTER_ENDPOINTS` redis cluster urls, separated by comma - shared cluster configuration.
* `SCCACHE_REDIS_USERNAME` redis username (optional).
* `SCCACHE_REDIS_PASSWORD` redis password (optional).

The full url appears then as `redis://user:passwd@1.2.3.4:6379/?db=1`.
