3 This tool generates the manifests uploaded to static.rust-lang.org and used by
4 rustup. The tool is invoked by the bootstrap tool.
6 ## Testing changes locally
8 In order to test the changes locally you need to have a valid dist directory
9 available locally. If you don't want to build all the compiler, you can easily
10 create one from the nightly artifacts with:
14 for cmpn in rust rustc rust-std rust-docs cargo; do
15 wget https://static.rust-lang.org/dist/${cmpn}-nightly-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz
19 Then, you can generate the manifest and all the packages from `path/to/dist` to
20 `path/to/output` with:
23 $ BUILD_MANIFEST_DISABLE_SIGNING=1 cargo +nightly run \
24 path/to/dist path/to/output 1970-01-01 \
25 nightly nightly nightly nightly nightly nightly nightly \
29 In the future, if the tool complains about missing arguments just add more
30 `nightly`s in the middle.
