OBS Service Cargo Vendor Home Registry

Important

This project's logic and code has now been merged to obs-service-cargo as a new method for vendoring.

No further updates will be added here in the future and thus, it will be archived.

A rewrite of the OBS Service Cargo Vendor.

The goals of this project are

• reduce boilerplate code by more than 50%
• use more idiomatic Rust code
• handle error messages better

Why rewrite?

cargo vendor is sus so I decided to go with vendoring the cargo home registry $CARGO_HOME instead 😳

Features

• Allow custom root directory of the project if in case the "dumb" detection fails.
• Allow option to set no root manifest. Packages such as s390-tools do not have a root manifest as it is a monorepo. It's not even a cargo workspace. However, users must manually add the path to the extra manifests if needed relative to project top-level directory.
• Tag support. Like obs-service-cargo, we support tags so you can have multiple registry contexts. However, that I still yet to find any.
• No need to set respect-lockfiles. Lockfiles are regenerated and shipped in the tarball. Therefore, updated lockfiles are also shipped without worrying if you have mismatching dependencies.

How to use in a specfile

A typical specfile looks like this

%prep
%autosetup -a1

%build
export CARGO_HOME=$PWD/.cargo
%{cargo_build}

%install
export CARGO_HOME=$PWD/.cargo
%{cargo_install}

%check
export CARGO_HOME=$PWD/.cargo
%{cargo_test}
