vibe-style-0.1.3 is not a library.

vibe-style

Rust style checker with syntax and semantic analysis, plus a safe auto-fixer for deterministic, rule-driven code layout.

Overview

vibe-style enforces a strict Rust style contract with stable rule IDs (RUST-STYLE-*). It supports:

curate: check and report violations.
tune: apply safe automatic fixes, then re-check.
coverage: print implemented rule IDs.

The checker implementation is the source of truth for parser- and AST-level edge cases.

Open a new terminal after running setx.

Supported prebuilt targets:

x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
aarch64-apple-darwin
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc

Install from crates.io (requires Rust/Cargo)

# Install both binaries (`vstyle` and `cargo-vstyle`).
cargo install vibe-style

After installation, you can use both vstyle ... and cargo vstyle ....

Install prebuilt binaries (cargo-binstall, requires Rust/Cargo)

# Optional: install cargo-binstall once.
cargo install cargo-binstall

# Then install prebuilt binaries for this crate.
cargo binstall vibe-style

Build from source

git clone https://github.com/hack-ink/vibe-style
cd vibe-style
cargo build --release

Binaries:

target/release/vstyle
target/release/cargo-vstyle

Install as a cargo subcommand (local source)

cargo install --path . --bin cargo-vstyle

After installation, you can run cargo vstyle ....

Usage

Basic commands

# Check style.
vstyle curate

# Apply safe fixes, then re-check.
vstyle tune

# Same as tune, but fail if violations remain.
vstyle tune --strict

# Print implemented rule IDs.
vstyle coverage

Cargo-like target selection

# Workspace-wide.
vstyle curate --workspace

# Selected packages.
vstyle tune -p api -p db-service

# Feature flags.
vstyle tune -p api --features serde,tracing
vstyle tune -p api --all-features --no-default-features

Exit behavior

curate
- Exit 0: no violations.
- Exit 1: violations found.
tune
- Exit 0: even if unresolved violations remain.
- Exit 1: unresolved violations remain and --strict is used.

By default, curate and tune follow cargo default package selection and scan git-tracked *.rs files inside that package scope.

Configuration

There is currently no user configuration file. Rules are built into the checker.

Rule Catalog

File structure

RUST-STYLE-FILE-001: Do not use mod.rs; use flat module files.

Module layout

RUST-STYLE-MOD-001: Keep top-level item order as mod, use, macro_rules!, type, const, static, trait, enum, struct, impl, fn.
RUST-STYLE-MOD-002: Place pub items before non-pub items within the same kind. Visibility boundaries define separate batches and must be separated by exactly one blank line.
RUST-STYLE-MOD-003: Place non-async functions before async functions at the same visibility.
RUST-STYLE-MOD-005: Keep each type adjacent to related impl blocks, with no blank line between the type and its first impl.

Serde

RUST-STYLE-SERDE-001: Do not use #[serde(default)] on Option<T> fields.

Imports and paths

RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-001: Group imports in this order: standard library, third-party, self/workspace/local-module roots.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-002: Use exactly one blank line between groups; do not use import-group header comments; normalize use a::{b, b::c} to use a::{b::{self, c}}.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-003: Do not alias imports, except as _ keep-alive imports. Trait imports used only for method resolution must use as _.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-004: Do not import free functions or macros into scope; use qualified paths. If imported symbols are ambiguous, use fully qualified paths.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-005: In error.rs, do not add use imports.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-008: For non-function, non-macro symbols in type paths, prefer unqualified usage with use imports when unambiguous; keep fully qualified paths when ambiguous.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-009: If a symbol is both imported and also used via other qualified type paths, stop importing that symbol and use fully qualified paths consistently.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-007: Do not use glob imports (use ...::* or equivalent). Use explicit imports only.
RUST-STYLE-IMPORT-010: Do not use super imports; rewrite to crate-absolute imports (use crate::...) when module depth allows it.

Types and generics

RUST-STYLE-IMPL-001: Use Self instead of concrete type names in impl method signatures.
RUST-STYLE-IMPL-003: Keep impl blocks contiguous and ordered as inherent, standard-library traits, third-party traits, then workspace-member traits.
RUST-STYLE-GENERICS-001: Move trait bounds to where; do not use inline bounds.

Logging and runtime safety

RUST-STYLE-LOG-002: Use structured logging fields and complete-sentence log messages.
RUST-STYLE-RUNTIME-001: Do not use unwrap() in non-test code.
RUST-STYLE-RUNTIME-002: expect() must use a clear, user-actionable string literal message.

Numeric literals

RUST-STYLE-NUM-001: Separate numeric literal suffixes with an underscore (for example, 10_f32).
RUST-STYLE-NUM-002: Use underscore grouping for integers with more than three digits.

Readability and spacing

RUST-STYLE-READ-002: Keep functions at or under 120 lines.
RUST-STYLE-SPACE-003: Do not insert blank lines within the same statement type. Use exactly one blank line between different statement types. Keep constant declaration groups compact only within the same visibility batch.
RUST-STYLE-SPACE-004: Insert exactly one blank line before each return and before final tail expressions unless the body is a single expression.

Tests

RUST-STYLE-TEST-001: Use descriptive snake_case test names.
RUST-STYLE-TEST-002: Reserve #[cfg(test)] mod _test for keep-alive imports only.
