Installation

cargo install cargo-skyline

Example usage

Create a new plugin called fps_counter (in a folder of the same name) in the current directory:

cargo skyline new fps_counter

Build the current plugin as an nro:

cargo skyline build

Set the ip of the Switch to install to as 192.168.0.0:

cargo skyline set-ip 192.168.0.0

Install the current plugin on a switch at ip 192.168.0.0 for an application with title of 01006A800016E000:

cargo skyline install --ip 192.168.0.0 --title-id 01006A800016E000

Note: if the IP has been set, it can be omitted from the arguments (or overriden using the arguments).

To set a default title id for a plugin use the following format in Cargo.toml:

[package.metadata.skyline]
titleid = "01006A800016E000"

Install the current plugin to the default IP and title ID, then listen for output from the console:

cargo skyline run

Alternative Installation via Docker

docker build -t cargo-skyline .
docker run it cargo-skyline cargo skyline --help
