Crate repackage[−][src]
Repackage .crate
files under a different crate name.
This crate provides repackage::dot_crate
, which repackages a .crate
file so
that it exports the same crate under a different name. It replaces the name
attribute in
Cargo.toml
, and also rewrites references to the old name in the various .rs
files that live
outside of src/
(those in src/
use crate::
).
Rewriting .rs files
Normally, rewriting the name
in Cargo.toml
should be sufficient for most use-cases.
Consumers of a .crate
file likely only care about the exported library, which only ever
refers to itself using paths starting with crate::
or ::
, not including the name. Tests and
binaries do have to name the library crate, but are usually not used by downstream consumers of
the .crate
. But, just in case, this crate tries to modify those files as well using some
simple string replacement. It’s brittle though, so you might only get so far with that approach
if you make heavy use of non-library artifacts in the produced .crate
files.
