§Escargot: A Cargo API

§Features

Features:

  • print for logged output to be printed instead, generally for test writing.

§Why escargot

Compared to depending on cargo:

  • Faster compile times.
  • Simpler API.
  • Better interop with projects relying on other cargo versions.
  • Probably slower execution, especially on platforms without an optimized fork (e.g. Windows).

§Relevant crates

Other related crates:

  • cargo for the real thing
  • cargo-metadata for a similar project specifically geared to the metadata subcommand.

§Example

escargot::CargoBuild::new()
    .bin("bin")
    .current_release()
    .current_target()
    .manifest_path("tests/fixtures/bin/Cargo.toml")
    .target_dir(target_dir.path())
    .exec()
    .unwrap();
