Fields

template_path: TemplatePath

list_favorites: bool

List defined favorite templates from the config

name: Option<String>

Directory to create / project name; if the name isn’t in kebab-case, it will be converted to kebab-case unless --force is given.

force: bool

Don’t convert the project name to kebab-case before creating the directory. Note that cargo generate won’t overwrite an existing directory, even if --force is given.

verbose: bool

Enables more verbose output.

quiet: bool

Opposite of verbose, suppresses errors & warning in output Conflicts with verbose, and requires the use of –continue-on-error

continue_on_error: bool

Continue if errors in templates are encountered

template_values_file: Option<String>

Pass template values through a file. Values should be in the format key=value, one per line

silent: bool

If silent mode is set all variables will be extracted from the template_values_file. If a value is missing the project generation will fail

config: Option<PathBuf>

Use specific configuration file. Defaults to $CARGO_HOME/cargo-generate or $HOME/.cargo/cargo-generate

vcs: Option<Vcs>

Specify the VCS used to initialize the generated template.

lib: bool

Populates template variable crate_type with value "lib"

bin: bool

Populates a template variable crate_type with value "bin"

ssh_identity: Option<PathBuf>

Use a different ssh identity

gitconfig: Option<PathBuf>

Use a different gitconfig file, if omitted the usual $HOME/.gitconfig will be used

define: Vec<String>

Define a value for use during template expansion. E.g --define foo=bar

init: bool

Generate the template directly into the current dir. No subfolder will be created and no vcs is initialized.

destination: Option<PathBuf>

Generate the template directly at the given path.

force_git_init: bool

Will enforce a fresh git init on the generated project

allow_commands: bool

Allows running system commands without being prompted. Warning: Setting this flag will enable the template to run arbitrary system commands without user confirmation. Use at your own risk and be sure to review the template code beforehand.

overwrite: bool

Allow the template to overwrite existing files in the destination.

skip_submodules: bool

Skip downloading git submodules (if there are any)

no_workspace: bool

Skip automatic workspace member addition. When set, the generated project will not be added to any parent Cargo.toml workspace members list

other_args: Option<Vec<String>>

All args after “–” on the command line.

Trait Implementations

impl Args for GenerateArgs

fn group_id() -> Option<Id>

Report the ArgGroup::id for this set of arguments

fn augment_args<'b>(__clap_app: Command) -> Command

Append to Command so it can instantiate Self via FromArgMatches::from_arg_matches_mut

fn augment_args_for_update<'b>(__clap_app: Command) -> Command

Append to Command so it can instantiate self via FromArgMatches::update_from_arg_matches_mut

impl Clone for GenerateArgs

fn clone(&self) -> GenerateArgs

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for GenerateArgs

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for GenerateArgs

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl FromArgMatches for GenerateArgs

fn from_arg_matches(__clap_arg_matches: &ArgMatches) -> Result<Self, Error>

Instantiate Self from ArgMatches, parsing the arguments as needed.

fn from_arg_matches_mut( __clap_arg_matches: &mut ArgMatches, ) -> Result<Self, Error>

Instantiate Self from ArgMatches, parsing the arguments as needed.

fn update_from_arg_matches( &mut self, __clap_arg_matches: &ArgMatches, ) -> Result<(), Error>

Assign values from ArgMatches to self.

fn update_from_arg_matches_mut( &mut self, __clap_arg_matches: &mut ArgMatches, ) -> Result<(), Error>

Assign values from ArgMatches to self.
