xtaskops

This is a Rust library that has a few goodies for working with the xtask concept.

Dependency

[dependencies]
xtaskops = "0.4.0"

For most recent version see crates.io

Usage

You should have the xtask concept already set up for your project.

To get started quickly, you can use this Rust CI starter
To set up manually follow the repo here.

Available Tasks

Full workflow tasks for your daily development.

bloat_deps Show biggest crates in release build
bloat_time Show crate build times
dev Run cargo check followed by cargo test for every file change
ci Run typical CI tasks in series: fmt, clippy, and tests
coverage Run coverage
docs Run cargo docs in watch mode
install Instal cargo tools
powerset Perform a CI build with powerset of features

Here's an example for how to integrate the coverage task with clap:

use xtaskops::tasks;
// assuming you use `clap`
let res = match matches.subcommand() {
    Some(("coverage", sm)) => tasks::coverage(sm.is_present("dev")),
  //..

Quick start

You can include everything from xtask in your project. In your xtask/main.rs:

fn main() -> Result<(), anyhow::Error> {
    xtaskops::tasks::main()
}

Ops

Low level convenience operations, for file system operations, user input and more.

use xtaskops::ops::{remove_dir, create_dir_all, cmd};

remove_dir("target")?;
create_dir_all("target")?;
// cmd! is from the `duct` library
cmd!("cargo", "watch", "-s", "cargo doc --no-deps").run()?;
Ok(())

Running Tasks

Run:

$ cargo xtask coverage

Recommended: alias cargo xtask to x:

# in your zshrc/shell rcfile
alias x="cargo xtask"
