Based on crates you own that have been published to crates.io. The best way to monitor these issues is to subscribe to the atom feed in your RSS reader.

• wiredtiger-rs

  • README missing from the repository

    We've searched https://github\.com/ryanpbrewster/wiredtiger\-rs\.git and could not find a README file there.

  • No readme property

    Specify path to a README file for the project, so that information about is included in the crates.io tarball.

  • The Cargo package has no git commit information

    Before publishing a package, make sure all packaged files are committed to the repository, and there are no "dirty" files. Push this commit to crate's public repository.

    To protect against supply chain attacks similar to CVE-2024-3094, lib.rs will soon start flagging non-reproducible packages without public source code as suspicious. Currently only git repositories are supported (but may be hosted anywhere, not just GitHub). If you'd like a different SCM supported, please file a feature request.

  • Missing categories

    Categories improve browsing of lib.rs and crates.io. Add categories = ["database-implementations"] to the Cargo.toml.

    Even if there are no categories that fit precisely, pick one that is least bad. You can also propose new categories in crates.io issue tracker.

    List of available categories

  • Missing keywords

    Help users find your crates. Add keywords = ["bindings", "wiredtiger", "libwiredtiger"] (up to 5) to the Cargo.toml. Best keywords are alternative terms or their spellings that aren't in the name or description. Also add a keyword that precisely categorizes this crate and groups it with other similar crates.

• wiredtiger-sys

  • Missing categories

    Categories improve browsing of lib.rs and crates.io. Add categories = ["…"] to the Cargo.toml.

  • Latest prerelease is old

    It's been over 6 months. Is this crate still maintained? Make a new release, either to refresh it, or to set

    [badges.maintenance]
    status = "deprecated"
    

    (or "as-is", "passively-maintained").

    Users pay attention to the latest release date. Even if the crate is perfectly fine as-is, users may not know that.

  • *-sys crate without links property

    If this crate uses C libraries with public symbols, consider adding links = "wiredtiger" to crate's Cargo.toml to avoid other libraries colliding with them. Note that the links property adds exclusivity to dependency resolution, but doesn't do any linking.

    This is also needed to protect your crate from duplicate older versions of itself. C symbols are global, and duplicate symbols can cause all sorts of breakage.

  • Dependency bindgen 0.70.0 is outdated

    Upgrade to 0.71.1 to get all the fixes, and avoid causing duplicate dependencies in projects.

    In Cargo, different 0.x versions are considered incompatible, so this is a semver-major upgrade.

  • Missing keywords

    Help users find your crates. Add keywords = ["wiredtiger", "version", "build", "low-level", "libwiredtiger"] (up to 5) to the Cargo.toml. Best keywords are alternative terms or their spellings that aren't in the name or description. Also add a keyword that precisely categorizes this crate and groups it with other similar crates.

  • Published crate contains binary files

    The crate contains binary files (autotools obfuscated code, obscure autoconf code). Crates are meant to be compiled from source. Please check that you haven't published temporary build files by accident. If you have test fixtures, consider excluding them from crates-io tarball, since Cargo doesn't run tests from crates-io packages.

  • No repository property

    Specify git repository URL in Cargo.toml to help users find more information, contribute, and for lib.rs to read more info.

  • Latest stable release is old

    It's been over 5 years. Is this crate still maintained? Make a new release, either to refresh it, or to set

    [badges.maintenance]
    status = "deprecated"
    

    (or "as-is", "passively-maintained").

    If the crate is truly stable, why not make a 1.0.0 release?

  • Missing categories

    Categories improve browsing of lib.rs and crates.io. Add categories = ["algorithms"] to the Cargo.toml.

  • Missing keywords

    Help users find your crates. Add keywords = ["sorting", "aka", "algorithm", "comparison", "merge-insertion"] (up to 5) to the Cargo.toml. Best keywords are alternative terms or their spellings that aren't in the name or description. Also add a keyword that precisely categorizes this crate and groups it with other similar crates.

If some of these crates are unmaintained and shouldn't be checked, yank them or add [badges.maintenance]
status = "deprecated" to their Cargo.toml.
