Low-level Rust bindings for the excellent address-parsing library libpostal. Several other Rust wrappers for this library exist. This one includes the following features, which may or may not be available elsewhere:
- Bundled
libpostal
source code. - Support for building static Rust binaries.
- Support for thread-safe initialization of
libpostal
, using provided global locks. - Packing as a low-level
libpostal-sys
crate that can be shared between one or more high-level crates, as per standard Rust conventions. - Support from cross-compiling from
x86_64
Macs toaarch64
(Apple Silicon).
Development notes
# Check out libpostal source code as a git submodule.
# Update our Rust API bindings manually.
