## Registry cache
## Inline cache

You can import/export cache from a cache manifest or (special) image configuration on the registry.
In most case you want to use the [`type=inline` cache exporter](https://github.com/moby/buildkit#inline-push-image-and-cache-together).
However, note that the `inline` cache exporter only supports `min` cache mode. To enable `max` cache mode, push the
image and the cache separately by using the `registry` cache exporter as shown in the [next example](#registry-cache).

## GitHub cache

### Cache backend API

> :test_tube: This cache exporter is considered EXPERIMENTAL until further notice. Please provide feedback on
> [BuildKit repository](https://github.com/moby/buildkit) if you encounter any issues.

Since [buildx 0.6.0](https://github.com/docker/buildx/releases/tag/v0.6.0) and [BuildKit 0.9.0](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/releases/tag/v0.9.0),
you can use the [`type=gha` cache exporter](https://github.com/moby/buildkit/tree/master#github-actions-cache-experimental).

GitHub Actions cache exporter backend uses the [GitHub Cache API](https://github.com/tonistiigi/go-actions-cache/blob/master/api.md)
to fetch and upload cache blobs. That's why this type of cache should be exclusively used in a GitHub Action workflow
as the `url` (`$ACTIONS_CACHE_URL`) and `token` (`$ACTIONS_RUNTIME_TOKEN`) attributes are populated when a workflow
is started.

```yaml
name: ci
on:
push:
branches:
- 'master'
jobs:
docker:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
-
name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
-
name: Set up Docker Buildx
uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v1
-
name: Login to DockerHub
uses: docker/login-action@v1
with:
username: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_USERNAME }}
password: ${{ secrets.DOCKERHUB_TOKEN }}
-
name: Build and push
uses: docker/build-push-action@v2
with:
context: .
push: true
tags: user/app:latest
cache-from: type=gha
cache-to: type=gha,mode=max
```

### Local cache

> :warning: At the moment caches are copied over the existing cache so it [keeps growing](https://github.com/docker/build-push-action/issues/252).
> The `Move cache` step is used as a temporary fix (see https://github.com/moby/buildkit/issues/1896).

> :rocket: There is a new cache backend using GitHub cache being developed that will lighten your workflow.
> More info: https://github.com/docker/buildx/pull/535
