catboost-sys

Introduction

Low level bindings for C API, adapted from https://github.com/catboost/catboost/tree/master/catboost/rust-package.

Major Differences vs official bindings

Major differences are:

  • Splitting out from the main repo due to the catboost repo being very big
  • Change strategy from rebuilding the shared library from source (which makes it hard to publish as a crate) to downloading it from the github official releases
  • Fixes to make it work for M1 macs (to download the right libcatboost binary)
  • Most changes are in build.rs, no differences in the APIs
  • We keep a copy of the model_interface c_bindings from https://github.com/catboost/catboost/tree/v1.0.6/catboost/libs/model_interface in this repo to simplify things

Build Instructions

  • Make sure you have the dependencies for bindgen
apt-get install -y build-essential pkg-config libssl-dev libclang-dev clang cmake
  • Build it with cargo build
