chore : use --no-cache-dir flag to pip in dockerfiles to save space

Open Rajpratik71 opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

using --no-cache-dir flag in pip install ,make sure downloaded packages by pip don't cached on system . This is a best practice which make sure to fetch from repo instead of using local cached one . Further , in case of Docker Containers , by restricting caching , we can reduce image size. In term of stats , it depends upon the number of python packages multiplied by their respective size . e.g for heavy packages with a lot of dependencies it reduce a lot by don't caching pip packages.

Further , more detail information can be found at
