Share GOMODCACHE between unix users

[wilk]

Hi,

I would like to have a global GOMODCACHE for all unix users, or a group of
users to gain space and speed. I trust all the users.

Using the same GOMODCACHE for all users doesn't works, the perms are only
writable by the user running the build.

Is there a workaround ? Could it be a feature ?

Thanks

I have many users building Go at my company, and instead of sharing the module cache on the filesystem, a much better approach is to use a caching module proxy, such as Athens (https://github.com/gomods/athens).

See the documentation for the GOPROXY environment variable.

With an alternate GOPROXY the GOMODCACHE of each users are still filled isn'it ?

I've started an issue :

Yes, each user would populate their own module cache locally if using your own proxy.
