Hey team, tried to set up remote caching locally with bazel-remote, doesn’t seem to work properly with my local cache. The bazel-remote container was started successfully and I was able to run the command:

./pants select-tests app/timeworks_provisioning --pants-workdir=pants-log --remote-store-address="<grpc://localhost:9092>"

Want to get some ideas on how to debug the remote caching setups with pants. Thanks!

You can see whether the cache was used or not by passing

--stats-log

and seeing what the cache-related metrics show.

n.b. with a custom workdir, ensure it is ignored by pants file watching…
