Crates.io Version Docs Build status Build Status

built is used as a build-time dependency to collect various information about the build environment and serialize it into the final crate. The information collected by built include:

  • Various metadata like version, authors, homepage etc. as set by Cargo.toml
  • The tag or commit id if the crate was being compiled from within a git repo.
  • The values of CARGO_CFG_* build script env variables, like CARGO_CFG_TARGET_OS and CARGO_CFG_TARGET_ARCH.
  • The features the crate was compiled with.
  • The various dependencies, dependencies of dependencies and their versions cargo ultimately chose to compile.
  • The presence of a CI-platform like Travis CI and AppVeyor.
  • The used compiler and it's version; the used documentation generator and it's version.

See the example or the docs for more information.

This is version 0.1.0, built for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu by rustc 1.43.1 (8d69840ab 2020-05-04).

I was built from git 0.4.1-10-gca2af4f, commit ca2af4f11bb8f4f6421c4cccf428bf4862573daf; the working directory was "dirty". The branch was refs/heads/master.

I was built for a x86_64-CPU, which is a little-endian architecture. I was compiled to run on linux (a unix-breed) and my runtime should be gnu.

It seems I've not been built on a continuous integration platform, and I'm currently not executing on one!
