Crate cargo_toml

This crate defines structs that can be deserialized with Serde to load and inspect Cargo.toml metadata.

See Manifest::from_slice.

Correct interpretation of the manifest requires two things:

• List of files in order to auto-discover binaries, examples, benchmarks, and tests.
• Potentially Manifest from parent directories that acts as a workspace root for inheritance of shared workspace information.

The crate has methods for processing this information, but you will need to write some glue code to obtain it. See Manifest::complete_from_path_and_workspace.

Modules

• featuresfeatures
  Helper for parsing the microsyntax of the [features] section and computing implied features from optional dependencies.

Structs

• Badge
  In badges section of Cargo.toml
• Badges
  [badges] section of Cargo.toml, deprecated by crates-io except maintenance.
• DependencyDetail
  When definition of a dependency is more than just a version string.
• Filesystem
  AbstractFilesystem implementation for real files.
• InheritedDependencyDetail
  When a dependency is defined as { workspace = true }, and workspace data hasn’t been applied yet.
• Lints
  [lints] section.
• Maintenance
  A Badges field with MaintenanceStatus.
• Manifest
  The top-level Cargo.toml structure. This is the main type in this library.
• Package
  The [package] section of the Manifest. This is where crate properties are.
• PackageTemplate
  Workspace can predefine properties that can be inherited via { workspace = true } in its member packages.
• Product
  Cargo uses the term “target” for both “target platform” and “build target” (the thing to build), which makes it ambigous. Here Cargo’s bin/lib target is renamed to product.
• Profile
  Compilation/optimization settings for a workspace
• Profiles
  Build-in an custom build/optimization settings
• Target
  Dependencies that are platform-specific or enabled through custom cfg().
• Workspace
  A manifest can contain both a package and workspace-wide properties

Enums

• DebugSetting
  Verbosity of debug info in a Profile
• Dependency
  Dependency definition. Note that this struct doesn’t carry it’s key/name, which you need to read from its section.
• Edition
  Edition setting, which opts in to new Rust/Cargo behaviors.
• Error
  In this crate’s Results.
• Inheritable
  Placeholder for a property that may be missing from its package, and needs to be copied from a Workspace.
• Lint
  Lint definition.
• LintLevel
  Lint level.
• LtoSetting
  Handling of LTO in a build profile
• MaintenanceStatus
  Mainly used to deprecate crates.
• OptionalFile
  A way specify or disable README or build.rs.
• Publish
  Forbids or selects custom registry
• Resolver
  resolver = "2" setting. Needed in Workspace, but implied by Edition in packages.
• StripSetting
  Handling of debug symbols in a build profile
• Value
  Representation of a TOML value.

Traits

• AbstractFilesystem
  This crate supports reading Cargo.toml not only from a real directory, but also directly from other sources, like tarballs or bare git repos (BYO directory reader).

Type Aliases

• DepsSet
  Dependencies. The keys in this map are not always crate names, this can be overriden by the package field, and there may be multiple copies of the same crate. Optional dependencies may create implicit features, see the features module for dealing with this.
• FeatureSet
  The [features] section. This set may be incomplete!
• LintGroups
  Lint groups such as [lints.rust].
• LintSet
  A set of lints.
• PatchSet
  Locally replace dependencies
• TargetDepsSet
  Config target (see parse_cfg crate) + deps for the target.
