"Helpers for copy rules" # Hints for Bazel spawn strategy COPY_EXECUTION_REQUIREMENTS = { # ----------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # no-remote | Prevents the action or test from being executed remotely or cached remotely. # | This is equivalent to using both `no-remote-cache` and `no-remote-exec`. # ----------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # no-cache | Results in the action or test never being cached (remotely or locally) # ----------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # See https://bazel.build/reference/be/common-definitions#common-attributes # # Copying file & directories is entirely IO-bound and there is no point doing this work # remotely. # # Also, remote-execution does not allow source directory inputs, see # https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/commit/c64421bc35214f0414e4f4226cc953e8c55fa0d2 So we must # not attempt to execute remotely in that case. # # There is also no point pulling the output file or directory from the remote cache since the # bytes to copy are already available locally. Conversely, no point in writing to the cache if # no one has any reason to check it for this action. # # Read and writing to disk cache is disabled as well primarily to reduce disk usage on the local # machine. A disk cache hit of a directory copy could be slghtly faster than a copy since the # disk cache stores the directory artifact as a single entry, but the slight performance bump # comes at the cost of heavy disk cache usage, which is an unmanaged directory that grow beyond # the bounds of the physical disk.
