The current version of pico-args is 0.5.0.

0.4.2 (older version) Rating: Positive Thoroughness: Low Understanding: Low

Contains no unsafe and no dependencies other than std, which is good. The code is farly small, about 1KLOC.

Surprisingly complicated for such a small codebase: there are a couple helper functions which are used throughout, and affect the state. I gave up trying to model everything in my head, but what I did understand all looked okay.


Lib.rs has been able to verify that all files in the crate's tarball, except Cargo.lock, are in the crate's repository with a git tag matching the version. Please note that this check is still in beta, and absence of this confirmation does not mean that the files don't match.

Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories, so there is a possibility that published crates have a misleading repository URL, or contain different code from the code in the repository.

To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open pico-args. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of pico-args v0.5.0 or view the source online.
