How to clean the cache?

[nrbnlulu]

I figure that rye uses some global package cache. If I accidentally modify some package sources I would like to distinct the cache is it possible?

Seems like it is possible in uv. rye don't expose \ delegate the needed command to uv ATM see https://github.com/nrbnlulu/rye/blob/43ac3a3ebfe2fd647e7b9a9fca723eeb37194b7d/rye/src/uv.rs#L542

and
https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/blob/42c3bfa351cc2cc3d0325da20f6f5d97f2fcf7be/crates/uv/src/cli.rs#L663

I am willing to work on this if some guidance would be given.

Just to give more information, not a solution, UV listens to a lot of environment variables which you can use even with rye+uv, for example UV_NO_CACHE=true rye sync -f would rebuild the environment without any cache. UV has multiple caches (downloads, git, wheels, etc..)

The environment variables are documented here for the time being https://github.com/astral-sh/uv?tab=readme-ov-file#environment-variables

Keeping in mind like you said that Rye's bundled uv trails the uv project by some releases, usually.
