11//! # Cargo as a library
12//!
13//! There are two places you can find API documentation of cargo-the-library,
14//!
15//! - <https://docs.rs/cargo>: targeted at external tool developers using cargo-the-library
16//! - Released with every rustc release
17//! - <https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/cargo>: targeted at cargo contributors
18//! - Updated on each update of the `cargo` submodule in `rust-lang/rust`
19//!
20//! **WARNING:** Using Cargo as a library has drawbacks, particulary the API is unstable,
21//! and there is no clear path to stabilize it soon at the time of writing. See [The Cargo Book:
22//! External tools] for more on this topic.
23//!
24//! ## Overview
25//!
26//! Major components of cargo include:
27//!
28//! - [`ops`]:
29//! Every major operation is implemented here. Each command is a thin wrapper around ops.
30//! - [`ops::cargo_compile`]:
31//! This is the entry point for all the compilation commands. This is a
32//! good place to start if you want to follow how compilation starts and
33//! flows to completion.
34//! - [`ops::resolve`]:
35//! Top-level API for dependency and feature resolver (e.g. [`ops::resolve_ws`])
36//! - [`core::resolver`]: The core algorithm
37//! - [`core::compiler`]:
38//! This is the code responsible for running `rustc` and `rustdoc`.
39//! - [`core::compiler::build_context`]:
49aad941 40//! The [`BuildContext`][core::compiler::BuildContext] is the result of the "front end" of the
0a29b90c
FG
41//! build process. This contains the graph of work to perform and any settings necessary for
42//! `rustc`. After this is built, the next stage of building is handled in
43//! [`Context`][core::compiler::Context].
44//! - [`core::compiler::context`]:
45//! The `Context` is the mutable state used during the build process. This
46//! is the core of the build process, and everything is coordinated through
47//! this.
48//! - [`core::compiler::fingerprint`]:
49//! The `fingerprint` module contains all the code that handles detecting
50//! if a crate needs to be recompiled.
51//! - [`core::source`]:
52//! The [`core::Source`] trait is an abstraction over different sources of packages.
53//! Sources are uniquely identified by a [`core::SourceId`]. Sources are implemented in the [`sources`]
54//! directory.
55//! - [`util`]:
56//! This directory contains generally-useful utility modules.
57//! - [`util::config`]:
58//! This directory contains the config parser. It makes heavy use of
59//! [serde](https://serde.rs/) to merge and translate config values. The
60//! [`util::Config`] is usually accessed from the
61//! [`core::Workspace`]
62//! though references to it are scattered around for more convenient access.
63//! - [`util::toml`]:
64//! This directory contains the code for parsing `Cargo.toml` files.
65//! - [`ops::lockfile`]:
66//! This is where `Cargo.lock` files are loaded and saved.
67//!
68//! Related crates:
69//! - [`cargo-platform`](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-platform)
70//! ([nightly docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/cargo_platform)):
71//! This library handles parsing `cfg` expressions.
72//! - [`cargo-util`](https://crates.io/crates/cargo-util)
73//! ([nightly docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/cargo_util)):
74//! This contains general utility code that is shared between cargo and the testsuite
75//! - [`crates-io`](https://crates.io/crates/crates-io)
76//! ([nightly docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/crates_io)):
77//! This contains code for accessing the crates.io API.
78//! - [`home`](https://crates.io/crates/home):
79//! This library is shared between cargo and rustup and is used for finding their home directories.
80//! This is not directly depended upon with a `path` dependency; cargo uses the version from crates.io.
81//! It is intended to be versioned and published independently of Rust's release system.
82//! Whenever a change needs to be made, bump the version in Cargo.toml and `cargo publish` it manually, and then update cargo's `Cargo.toml` to depend on the new version.
83//! - [`cargo-test-support`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/tree/master/crates/cargo-test-support)
84//! ([nightly docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/cargo_test_support/index.html)):
85//! This contains a variety of code to support writing tests
86//! - [`cargo-test-macro`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/tree/master/crates/cargo-test-macro)
87//! ([nightly docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/cargo_test_macro/index.html)):
88//! This is the `#[cargo_test]` proc-macro used by the test suite to define tests.
49aad941 89//! - [`credential`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/tree/master/credential)
0a29b90c
FG
90//! This subdirectory contains several packages for implementing the
91//! experimental
92//! [credential-process](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/unstable.html#credential-process)
93//! feature.
94//! - [`mdman`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/tree/master/crates/mdman)
95//! ([nightly docs](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/mdman/index.html)):
96//! This is a utility for generating cargo's man pages. See [Building the man
97//! pages](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/tree/master/src/doc#building-the-man-pages)
98//! for more information.
99//! - [`resolver-tests`](https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/tree/master/crates/resolver-tests)
100//! This is a dedicated package that defines tests for the [dependency
101//! resolver][core::resolver].
102//!
103//! ### File Overview
104//!
105//! Files that interact with cargo include
106//!
107//! - Package
108//! - `Cargo.toml`: User-written project manifest, loaded with [`util::toml::TomlManifest`] and then
109//! translated to [`core::manifest::Manifest`] which maybe stored in a [`core::Package`].
110//! - This is editable with [`util::toml_mut::manifest::LocalManifest`]
111//! - `Cargo.lock`: Generally loaded with [`ops::resolve_ws`] or a variant of it into a [`core::resolver::Resolve`]
112//! - At the lowest level, [`ops::load_pkg_lockfile`] and [`ops::write_pkg_lockfile`] are used
113//! - See [`core::resolver::encode`] for versioning of `Cargo.lock`
114//! - `target/`: Used for build artifacts and abstracted with [`core::compiler::layout`]. `Layout` handles locking the target directory and providing paths to parts inside. There is a separate `Layout` for each build `target`.
115//! - `target/debug/.fingerprint`: Tracker whether nor not a crate needs to be rebuilt. See [`core::compiler::fingerprint`]
116//! - `$CARGO_HOME/`:
117//! - `registry/`: Package registry cache which is managed in [`sources::registry`]. Be careful
118//! as the lock [`util::Config::acquire_package_cache_lock`] must be manually acquired.
119//! - `index`/: Fast-to-access crate metadata (no need to download / extract `*.crate` files)
120//! - `cache/*/*.crate`: Local cache of published crates
121//! - `src/*/*`: Extracted from `*.crate` by [`sources::registry::RegistrySource`]
122//! - `git/`: Git source cache. See [`sources::git`].
123//! - `**/.cargo/config.toml`: Environment dependent (env variables, files) configuration. See
124//! [`util::config`]
125//!
126//! ## Contribute to Cargo documentations
127//!
128//! The Cargo team always continues improving all external and internal documentations.
129//! If you spot anything could be better, don't hesitate to discuss with the team on
130//! Zulip [`t-cargo` stream], or [submit an issue] right on GitHub.
131//! There is also an issue label [`A-documenting-cargo-itself`],
132//! which is generally for documenting user-facing [The Cargo Book],
133//! but the Cargo team is welcome any form of enhancement for the [Cargo Contributor Guide]
134//! and this API documentation as well.
