pkgcruft 0.0.12

QA library and tools based on pkgcraft
Documentation
QA library and tools based on pkgcraft.

# Usage

The main use for pkgcruft is to scan ebuild repos for issues. It works in a
similar fashion to [pkgcheck] but operates in a much more performant manner
while supporting features such as ignore directives, native package filtering,
and sorted output.

For basic use cases, simply run `pkgcruft scan` inside an ebuild repo.

# Warning

To maximize report accuracy, pkgcruft should generate package metadata itself
during a scanning run. Alternatively, it can be manually generated using
various tools from pkgcraft-tools.

For more explanation, pkgcraft is much more strict than alternatives on what is
allowed in global scope. However, if a less stringent tool is used, potential
reports may be skipped as pkgcruft will not regenerate data for packages with
valid cache entries.

# Build requirements

A recent version of rust and compatible clang compiler.

# Benchmarking

Benchmarks can be run individually for every supported check against a repo target:

    # set repo target
    export PKGCRUFT_BENCH_REPO=path/to/repo

    # run benchmarks
    cargo criterion Check --features test -p pkgcruft
