next.config.js: I Configured Next.js to use webpack 5 and filesystem caching. This configuration ensures that Next.js can leverage caching for faster rebuilds.
Implementing GitHub Actions Build Caching: GitHub Actions supports caching to speed up workflows. We can cache the npm dependencies and any other build artifacts between workflow runs.
So I Modified the workflow file (.github/workflows/nodejs.yml) to include caching steps.
This will optimize the workflow by reusing dependencies across workflow runs.
Changes done are as follows
next.config.js: Configures Next.js to use webpack 5 and filesystem caching. This configuration ensures that Next.js can leverage caching for faster rebuilds.
GitHub Actions Workflow:
Caching: Utilizes GitHub Actions caching (actions/cache@v2) to cache npm dependencies (~/.npm) between workflow runs. This speeds up npm installs and builds.
next build: Uses npx next build instead of npm run build to trigger the Next.js build process directly. This ensures that Next.js caching mechanisms are utilized effectively.
By implementing these changes, you should see improvements in build performance due to optimized caching strategies both within Next.js and in your GitHub Actions workflow.
