When a system-wide shared plugin cache is configured, we'll want to make use of entries already in the shared cache when populating a local (configuration-specific) cache. This new method LinkFromOtherCache encapsulates the work of placing a link from one cache to another. If possible it will create a symlink, therefore retaining a key advantage of configuring a shared plugin cache, but otherwise we'll do a deep copy of the package directory from one cache to the other. Our old provider installer would always skip trying to create symlinks on Windows because Go standard library support for os.Symlink on Windows was inconsistent in older versions. However, os.Symlink can now create symlinks using a new API introduced in a Windows 10 update and cleanly fail if symlink creation is impossible, so it's safe for us to just try to create the symlink and react if that produces an error, just as we used to do on non-Windows systems when possibly creating symlinks on filesystems that cannot support them. |
