cargo-crate 0.0.2

A set of crate related cargo commands. You can for instance get the information about a crate, as text or json, including the owners of a crate and its versions.
# cargo-crate

## Intro

`cargo-crate` is an additional cargo command for your crate.

## Features

In a nutshell `cargo-crate` allows:

-   fetching information about one or several crates, including its owners

-   opening a crate in crates.io

-   opening a crates' documentation directly

-   opening a crates' repository directly

-   opening a crates' homepage directly

## Install

    cargo instal cargo-crate

### Aliases

You will typically use cargo-crate as `cargo crate <command> [args]` which you may find a bit verbose.
To make it easier, `cargo` allows defining aliases in you `$CARGO_HOME/config` file under the `[alias]` section.

You may for instance add:

    [alias]
    ...
    open = "crate open"
    info = "crate info"
    show = "crate info"
    repo = "crate open --repo"
    home = "crate open --home"
    docu = "crate open --doc"

Those will allow you the following calls:

-   `cargo repo clap` opens the clap documentation

-   `cargo home clap` opens the clap homepage

-   etc…​

## Usage

`cargo-crate` can be started using both `cargo crate` or `cargo-crate`.
