IROX-BUILD-RS

Compile-time build metadata injection inspired by shadow-rs

Quick-start

Part 1: Generating the metadata during the build

Create a build.rs file in your module, and include the defaults:

pub fn main() -> Result<(), irox_build_rs::Error> {
    println!("cargo:rerun-if-changed=build.rs");

    irox_build_rs::generate_module()?;

    Ok(())
}

Ensure your Cargo.toml has:

[build-dependencies]
irox-build-rs = "{latest-version}"

To include variables from Git, include the 'git' feature:

[build-dependencies]
irox-build-rs = { version = "{latest-version}", features = ["git"] }

Part 2: Including the build metadata

Somwhere in your module, usually in your top level lib.rs/main.rs:

pub mod build {
    include!(concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/builders.rs"));
}

Part 3: Use them!

fn main() {
    println!("{}", build::CARGO_PKG_NAME);
    
    for (name, value) in build::get_ALL_ITEMS() {
        println!("{name} => {value}");
    }
}

Each of the sets of generated constants below are available in BTreeMap<&str, &str>'s as well:

use std::collections::BTreeMap;

fn main() {
    let cargo_items: &BTreeMap<&str, &str> = build::get_CARGO_ITEMS();
    let rustc_items: &BTreeMap<&str, &str> = build::get_RUSTC_ITEMS();
    let git_items: &BTreeMap<&str, &str> = build::get_GIT_ITEMS();
    
    // all_items is the union of all the sets
    let all_items: &BTreeMap<&str, &str> = build::get_ALL_ITEMS();
}
