Configuring Azure Storage Build Cache

This feature allows you to configure the plugin to use Azure Blob Storage for caching build outputs. You need to provide your Azure Storage account name, container name, and account key.

{
  "cacheProvider": "azure-blob-storage",
  "azureBlobStorageConfiguration": {
    "storageAccountName": "<your-storage-account-name>",
    "storageContainerName": "<your-container-name>",
    "storageAccountKey": "<your-storage-account-key>"
  }
}

Enabling the Plugin in rush.json

This feature demonstrates how to enable the Azure Storage build cache plugin in the rush.json configuration file. By setting the 'enabled' property to true and specifying the Azure Blob Storage configuration, you activate the caching mechanism.

{
  "buildCache": {
    "enabled": true,
    "cacheProvider": "azure-blob-storage",
    "azureBlobStorageConfiguration": {
      "storageAccountName": "<your-storage-account-name>",
      "storageContainerName": "<your-container-name>",
      "storageAccountKey": "<your-storage-account-key>"
    }
  }
}
