Class HttpBuildCache

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    BuildCache

    @Incubating
    public class HttpBuildCache
    extends AbstractBuildCache
    Configuration object for the HTTP build cache. The build cache only supports BASIC authentication currently.

    Cache entries are loaded via GET and stored via PUT requests.

    For a GET request we expect a 200 or 404 response and for PUT we expect any 2xx response. Other responses are treated as recoverable or non-recoverable errors, depending on the status code. E.g. we treat authentication failures (401 and 409) as non-recoverable while an internal server error (500) is recoverable.

      • getUrl

        @Nullable
        public URI getUrl()
        Returns the URI to the cache.
      • setUrl

        public void setUrl​(String url)
        Sets the URL of the cache. The URL must end in a '/'.
      • setUrl

        public void setUrl​(URI url)
        Sets the URL of the cache. The URL must end in a '/'.
      • getCredentials

        public HttpBuildCacheCredentials getCredentials()
        Returns the credentials used to access the HTTP cache backend.
      • credentials

        public void credentials​(Action<? super HttpBuildCacheCredentials> configuration)
        Configures the credentials used to access the HTTP cache backend.
      • isAllowUntrustedServer

        public boolean isAllowUntrustedServer()
        Specifies whether it is acceptable to communicate with an HTTP build cache backend with an untrusted SSL certificate.

        The SSL certificate for the HTTP build cache backend may be untrusted since it is internally provisioned or a self-signed certificate.

        In such a scenario, you can either configure the build JVM environment to trust the certificate, or set this property to true to disable verification of the server's identity.

        Allowing communication with untrusted servers keeps data encrypted during transmission, but makes it easier for a man-in-the-middle to impersonate the intended server and capture data.

        This value has no effect if a server is specified using the HTTP protocol (i.e. has SSL disabled).
