Update cache for MINT_PATH and MINT_LINK_PATH

• base on fix use $HOME/bin/mint #25

Thank you for your PR!

in #25, I have changed mint executable binary to $HOME/bin/mint from /usr/local/bin/mint.
Then that mint executable binary will be stored to cache by mintPaths and mintCacheKey.

setup-mint/src/main.ts

Lines 71 to 77 in 8e4c5f7

	const binaryDirectoryPrefix = `${process.env['HOME']}`
	const binaryDirectory = `${binaryDirectoryPrefix}/bin`
	const mintPath = `${binaryDirectory}/mint`
	const mintCacheKey = `${cachePrefix}-${process.env['RUNNER_OS']}-${process.env['RUNNER_ARCH']}-irgaly/setup-mint-${mintVersion}`
	const mintPaths = [mintPath]
	core.info(`mint cache key: ${mintCacheKey}`)
	const mintRestored = ((await cache.restoreCache(mintPaths, mintCacheKey)) != undefined)

On the other hand, mintBinaryDirectory is ~/.mint/bin, this directory is used to putting SwiftPM command (xcodegen, swiftgen...) that was built by mint.

Because the mint binary itself is stored to $HOME/bin/mint and cached independently, so It's not affected by MINT_PATH or MINT_LINK_PATH.

Sorry these variable names is confusable in my code. GitHub Actions test result seems store / restore mint binary correctly.

I hit the issue when uses irgaly/setup-mint.

~/.mint/bin/mint // default behavior not found, 
$HOME/bin/mint // PASS

I believe the variable MINT_BIN = $MINT_LINK_PATH/mint is used everywhere...

Maybe restore-cache-path can follow

    const mintDirectory = (process.env['MINT_PATH'] || '~/.mint').replace(/^~\//, `${os.homedir()}/`)
    const mintBinaryDirectory = (process.env['MINT_LINK_PATH'] || '~/.mint/bin').replace(/^~\//, `${os.homedir()}/`)

I want to hear what usecase do you have, and what problem you faced?

The mint binary is default to be installed to /usr/local/bin/mint for Homebrew.

Or for make install.

~/.mint/bin/mint is default for mint install.

~/.mint/bin/mint is default for mint install.

Our developers use this path on local side,
so I hit the error mint not found when running after [email protected] on GitHub actions.

Good to know, there are 2 paths between homebrew and mint itself..

@Wei18

I released v1.6.0, and setup-mint@v1 automatically point this new version. Please check this.

https://github.com/irgaly/setup-mint/releases/tag/v1.6.0

v1.6.0 now, setup-mint will run mint bootstrap --link, so swift command symbolic link is placed in ~/.mint/bin/{executable}.
Also you can specify mint-executable-directory: ~/.mint/bin with your self hosted macOS runner, this option will prevent instllation error.
