[Feature Request] Customizable Cache Location #971

Closed eristocrates closed 3 months ago

eristocrates commented 3 months ago

What feature should be added to Suwayomi?

I'd like a feature to select Cache location. Currently it defaults to my OS drive which unfortunately is always strapped for space. I have plenty of other drives already to address this, and I would like to store Suwayomi's cache there instead

Why/Project's Benefit/Existing Problem

With a large enough collection, the program becomes near unusable. If i don't manually clear the cache regularly, upwards of 15GB & beyond from my OS drive is taken up just by Suwayomi alone.

you can already change the root folder (youl want to manually copy everything from the current location to the new location first)

And you can change the temporary files directory using this java run option https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1924136/environment-variable-to-control-java-io-tmpdir

I suppose i missed the connection between the root directory and the cache. Thank you very much for the support.
