@types/find-cache-dir

What is @types/find-cache-dir?

The @types/find-cache-dir package provides TypeScript type definitions for the find-cache-dir library, which is a utility that helps you find a cache directory based on the npm package name. This is particularly useful in development environments where caching of output can significantly speed up build processes. The type definitions ensure that TypeScript users can integrate find-cache-dir into their projects with type safety.

What are @types/find-cache-dir's main functionalities?

Type Definitions for Cache Directory Finding

This code demonstrates how to use find-cache-dir with TypeScript to find or create a cache directory specific to an application named 'my-app'. The @types/find-cache-dir package provides the necessary type definitions to ensure type safety and autocompletion in TypeScript environments.

import findCacheDir from 'find-cache-dir';

const cacheDir = findCacheDir({ name: 'my-app' });
console.log(cacheDir);

Other packages similar to @types/find-cache-dir

find-cache-dir

This is the actual JavaScript implementation of the functionality to find a cache directory. It provides the core functionality which @types/find-cache-dir types are based on. Unlike @types/find-cache-dir, which only provides type definitions, find-cache-dir contains the executable code necessary for the actual computation of cache directory paths.

cache-conf

Cache-conf is a package for managing cache configurations and data. It provides more extensive features for handling cache data, such as reading, writing, and deleting cache entries. This package is more comprehensive in managing cache data compared to find-cache-dir, which primarily focuses on locating a cache directory.

make-dir

Make-dir is a utility that helps in creating directories with support for deep nested paths. It is similar to find-cache-dir in that it helps manage directory structures in your project, but it does not specifically target cache directories or integrate with npm package names for directory determination.
