asdf-rust

Rust plugin for asdf version manager.

Install

asdf plugin-add rust https://github.com/code-lever/asdf-rust.git

Check asdf readme for instructions on how to install & manage versions of Rust.

Default cargo crates

asdf-rust can automatically install a default set of packages with cargo right after installing a Rust version. To enable this feature, provide a $HOME/.default-cargo-crates file that lists one package per line, for example:

// cli-tools
ripgrep

// install from source
--git https://github.com/sharkdp/bat

You can specify a non-default location of this file by setting a ASDF_CRATE_DEFAULT_PACKAGES_FILE variable.

ASDF_RUST_PROFILE variable can be used to install different from default profile (e.g. minimal or complete).
