How to disable build caching with angular 17

Question

I noticed in my Chrome DevTools Network tab that all files come from

http://localhost:4200/@fs/Users/lucas/tmp/pux/xyz/.angular/cache/17.0.6/vite/deps/....

This .angular/cache forlder probably holds all files and the build does caching. In my case however, I'm also working in one of my node_modules dependencies (stenciljs project). I need to debug it. The problem now is, is that the angular build caches all those files, meaning that when I make a change in my node_modules/stencil Project I also have to remove that .angular folder.

So my question is, is there a way to just disable cache at all?

Answer 1

You can add this on angular.json

"cli": {
  "cache": {
    "enabled": false
  }
}

Or run ng cache disable
