Packaging

• crate
• docs

Getting started

cargo build
cargo test

Example programs are in the subdirectory examples/:

cargo build --examples

The binaries will then be found in target/debug/examples.

To build optimized examples:

cargo build --release --examples

The binaries will then be found in target/release/examples.

These programs use clap for command-line options. Pass --help to any of them for usage information.

Development information

CI

CI testing is done using GitHub actions for both Linux and macOS. These actions include using clippy, which is a very strict code linter. The actions also check code format using rustfmt.

Code coverage

Use tarpaulin. The documentation for that crate is excellent. The short version is:

cargo tarpaulin -o html

This command will run the tests and generate a nice html report.
