Description:
The post step throws "Error: Cache folder path is retrieved for poetry but doesn't exist on disk: /home/ubuntu/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs. This likely indicates that there are no dependencies to cache. Consider removing the cache step if it is not needed."

But I've specified virtualenvs.create = false

Action version:
v5.5.0

Platform:

  • Ubuntu
  • macOS
  • Windows

Runner type:

  • Hosted
  • Self-hosted

Tools version:
3.13

Repro steps:
Run snok/install-poetry@v1.4.1
with:
version: 1.8.5
virtualenvs-create: false
virtualenvs-in-project: false
installer-parallel: true
virtualenvs-path: {cache-dir}/virtualenvs
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ***
VENV: .venv/bin/activate

Run actions/setup-python@v5
with:
python-version: 3.13
cache: poetry
check-latest: false
token: ***
update-environment: true
allow-prereleases: false
freethreaded: false
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ***
VENV: .venv/bin/activate

Expected behavior:
To succesfully install Python 3.13 with poetry as cache

Actual behavior:

Hello @pascalgulikers 👋,

The error logs and your workflow configuration indicate that the issue is due to a missing Poetry cache directory (/home/ubuntu/.cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs) and If the virtualenvs.create is set to false and there is no active virtual environment, Poetry will install dependencies directly into the system's Python environment instead of creating a virtual environment. As a result, there will be no .cache/pypoetry/virtualenvs directory.

To fix this:

1. Enable Virtual Environments:

Set virtualenvs.create = true in your Poetry configuration. This will ensure dependencies are installed in an isolated environment, avoiding conflicts with the global/system Python environment.
For more details, refer to the Poetry documentation.

2. Remove Caching Step if No Dependencies Exist:

Remove the cache: poetry line from the actions/setup-python@v5 action if the toml file doesn't contain any dependencies. If there are no dependencies, the cache directory won't be used, so caching is unnecessary.

These changes should resolve the error and allow the workflow to run smoothly.
Please let us know if you encounter any further issues.
