CARGO-VENDOR(1)
NAME
cargo-vendor - Vendor all dependencies locally
SYNOPSIS
cargo vendor [options] [path]
DESCRIPTION
This cargo subcommand will vendor all crates.io and git dependencies for
a project into the specified directory at <path>. After this command
completes the vendor directory specified by <path> will contain all
remote sources from dependencies specified. Additional manifests beyond
the default one can be specified with the -s option.
The cargo vendor command will also print out the configuration necessary
to use the vendored sources, which you will need to add to
.cargo/config.toml.
OPTIONS
Vendor Options
-s manifest, --sync manifest
Specify extra Cargo.toml manifests to workspaces which should also
be vendored and synced to the output.
--no-delete
Don't delete the "vendor" directory when vendoring, but rather keep
all existing contents of the vendor directory
--respect-source-config
Instead of ignoring [source] configuration by default in
.cargo/config.toml read it and use it when downloading crates from
crates.io, for example
--versioned-dirs
Normally versions are only added to disambiguate multiple versions
of the same package. This option causes all directories in the
"vendor" directory to be versioned, which makes it easier to track
the history of vendored packages over time, and can help with the
performance of re-vendoring when only a subset of the packages have
changed.
Manifest Options
--manifest-path path
Path to the Cargo.toml file. By default, Cargo searches for the
Cargo.toml file in the current directory or any parent directory.
--frozen, --locked
Either of these flags requires that the Cargo.lock file is
up-to-date. If the lock file is missing, or it needs to be updated,
Cargo will exit with an error. The --frozen flag also prevents Cargo
from attempting to access the network to determine if it is
out-of-date.
These may be used in environments where you want to assert that the
Cargo.lock file is up-to-date (such as a CI build) or want to avoid
network access.
--offline
Prevents Cargo from accessing the network for any reason. Without
this flag, Cargo will stop with an error if it needs to access the
network and the network is not available. With this flag, Cargo will
attempt to proceed without the network if possible.
Beware that this may result in different dependency resolution than
online mode. Cargo will restrict itself to crates that are
downloaded locally, even if there might be a newer version as
indicated in the local copy of the index. See the cargo-fetch(1)
command to download dependencies before going offline.
May also be specified with the net.offline config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
Display Options
-v, --verbose
Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose" output
which includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build
script output. May also be specified with the term.verbose config
value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
-q, --quiet
No output printed to stdout.
--color when
Control when colored output is used. Valid values:
o auto (default): Automatically detect if color support is
available on the terminal.
o always: Always display colors.
o never: Never display colors.
May also be specified with the term.color config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
Common Options
+toolchain
If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to
cargo begins with +, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain
name (such as +stable or +nightly). See the rustup documentation
<https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html> for more
information about how toolchain overrides work.
-h, --help
Prints help information.
-Z flag
Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run cargo -Z help for
details.
ENVIRONMENT
See the reference
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html>
for details on environment variables that Cargo reads.
EXIT STATUS
o 0: Cargo succeeded.
o 101: Cargo failed to complete.
EXAMPLES
1. Vendor all dependencies into a local "vendor" folder
cargo vendor
2. Vendor all dependencies into a local "third-party/vendor" folder
cargo vendor third-party/vendor
3. Vendor the current workspace as well as another to "vendor"
cargo vendor -s ../path/to/Cargo.toml
