The action has a built-in functionality for caching and restoring dependencies. It uses [actions/cache](https://github.com/actions/cache) under the hood for caching global packages data but requires less configuration settings. Supported package managers are `npm`, `yarn`, `pnpm` (v6.10+). The `cache` input is optional, and caching is turned off by default.
The action defaults to search for the dependency file (`package-lock.json` or `yarn.lock`) in the repository root, and uses its hash as a part of the cache key. Use `cache-dependency-path` for cases when multiple dependency files are used, or they are located in different subdirectories.

The `node-version-file` input accepts a path to a file containing the version of Node.js to be used by a project, for example `.nvmrc` or `.node-version`. If both the `node-version` and the `node-version-file` inputs are provided then the `node-version` input is used. In the special case of using `package.json`, the action will look for keys like `volta.node` key to receive the version.
