NAMEcargo-package — Assemble the local package into a distributable tarball SYNOPSIScargo package [options] DESCRIPTIONThis command will create a distributable, compressed .crate file with the source code of the package in the current directory. The resulting file will be stored in the target/package directory. This performs the following steps: 1.Load and check the current workspace, performing some
basic checks.
•Path dependencies are not allowed unless they
have a version key. Cargo will ignore the path key for dependencies in
published packages. dev-dependencies do not have this
restriction.
2.Create the compressed .crate file.
•The original Cargo.toml file is rewritten
and normalized.
•[patch], [replace], and
[workspace] sections are removed from the manifest.
•Cargo.lock is always included. When
missing, a new lock file will be generated unless the
--exclude-lockfile flag is used. cargo-install(1) will use the
packaged lock file if the --locked flag is used.
•A .cargo_vcs_info.json file is included
that contains information about the current VCS checkout hash if available, as
well as a flag if the worktree is dirty.
•Symlinks are flattened to their target
files.
•Files and directories are included or excluded
based on rules mentioned in the [include] and
[exclude] fields
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-exclude-and-include-fields>.
3.Extract the .crate file and build it to verify
it can build.
•This will rebuild your package from scratch to
ensure that it can be built from a pristine state. The --no-verify flag
can be used to skip this step.
4.Check that build scripts did not modify any source
files.
The list of files included can be controlled with the include and exclude fields in the manifest. See the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/publishing.html> for more details about packaging and publishing. .cargo_vcs_info.json formatWill generate a .cargo_vcs_info.json in the following format { dirty indicates that the Git worktree was dirty when the package was built. path_in_vcs will be set to a repo-relative path for packages in subdirectories of the version control repository. The compatibility of this file is maintained under the same policy as the JSON output of cargo-metadata(1). Note that this file provides a best-effort snapshot of the VCS information. However, the provenance of the package is not verified. There is no guarantee that the source code in the tarball matches the VCS information. OPTIONSPackage Options-l, --list Print files included in a package without making
one.
--no-verify Don’t verify the contents by building them.
--no-metadata Ignore warnings about a lack of human-usable metadata
(such as the description or the license).
--allow-dirty Allow working directories with uncommitted VCS changes to
be packaged.
--exclude-lockfile Don’t include the lock file when packaging.
This flag is not for general use. Some tools may expect a lock file to be present (e.g. cargo install --locked). Consider other options before using this. --index index The URL of the registry index to use.
--registry registry Name of the registry to package for; see cargo publish
--help for more details about configuration of registry names. The
packages will not be published to this registry, but if we are packaging
multiple inter-dependent crates, lock-files will be generated under the
assumption that dependencies will be published to this registry.
--message-format fmt Specifies the output message format. Currently, it only
works with --list and affects the file listing format. This is unstable
and requires -Zunstable-options. Valid output formats:
•human (default): Display in a
file-per-line format.
•json: Emit machine-readable JSON
information about each package. One package per JSON line (Newline delimited
JSON).
{ Package SelectionBy default, when no package selection options are given, the packages selected depend on the selected manifest file (based on the current working directory if --manifest-path is not given). If the manifest is the root of a workspace then the workspaces default members are selected, otherwise only the package defined by the manifest will be selected. The default members of a workspace can be set explicitly with the workspace.default-members key in the root manifest. If this is not set, a virtual workspace will include all workspace members (equivalent to passing --workspace), and a non-virtual workspace will include only the root crate itself. -p spec…, --package spec… Package only the specified packages. See
cargo-pkgid(1) for the SPEC format. This flag may be specified multiple
times and supports common Unix glob patterns like *, ? and
[]. However, to avoid your shell accidentally expanding glob patterns
before Cargo handles them, you must use single quotes or double quotes around
each pattern.
--workspace Package all members in the workspace.
--exclude SPEC… Exclude the specified packages. Must be used in
conjunction with the --workspace flag. This flag may be specified
multiple times and supports common Unix glob patterns like *, ?
and []. However, to avoid your shell accidentally expanding glob
patterns before Cargo handles them, you must use single quotes or double
quotes around each pattern.
Compilation Options--target triple Package for the given architecture. The default is the
host architecture. The general format of the triple is
<arch><sub>-<vendor>-<sys>-<abi>. Run
rustc --print target-list for a list of supported targets. This flag
may be specified multiple times.
This may also be specified with the build.target config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Note that specifying this flag makes Cargo run in a different mode where the target artifacts are placed in a separate directory. See the build cache <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/build-cache.html> documentation for more details. --target-dir directory Directory for all generated artifacts and intermediate
files. May also be specified with the CARGO_TARGET_DIR environment
variable, or the build.target-dir config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Defaults to
target in the root of the workspace.
Feature SelectionThe feature flags allow you to control which features are enabled. When no feature options are given, the default feature is activated for every selected package. See the features documentation <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html#command-line-feature-options> for more details. -F features, --features features Space or comma separated list of features to activate.
Features of workspace members may be enabled with
package-name/feature-name syntax. This flag may be specified multiple
times, which enables all specified features.
--all-features Activate all available features of all selected
packages.
--no-default-features Do not activate the default feature of the
selected packages.
Manifest Options--manifest-path path Path to the Cargo.toml file. By default, Cargo
searches for the Cargo.toml file in the current directory or any parent
directory.
--locked Asserts that the exact same dependencies and versions are
used as when the existing Cargo.lock file was originally generated.
Cargo will exit with an error when either of the following scenarios arises:
•The lock file is missing.
•Cargo attempted to change the lock file due to a
different dependency resolution.
It may be used in environments where deterministic builds are desired, such as in CI pipelines. --offline Prevents Cargo from accessing the network for any reason.
Without this flag, Cargo will stop with an error if it needs to access the
network and the network is not available. With this flag, Cargo will attempt
to proceed without the network if possible.
Beware that this may result in different dependency resolution than online mode. Cargo will restrict itself to crates that are downloaded locally, even if there might be a newer version as indicated in the local copy of the index. See the cargo-fetch(1) command to download dependencies before going offline. May also be specified with the net.offline config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. --frozen Equivalent to specifying both --locked and
--offline.
--lockfile-path PATH Changes the path of the lockfile from the default
(<workspace_root>/Cargo.lock) to PATH. PATH must
end with Cargo.lock (e.g. --lockfile-path
/tmp/temporary-lockfile/Cargo.lock). Note that providing
--lockfile-path will ignore existing lockfile at the default path, and
instead will either use the lockfile from PATH, or write a new lockfile
into the provided PATH if it doesn’t exist. This flag can be
used to run most commands in read-only directories, writing lockfile into the
provided PATH.
This option is only available on the nightly channel <https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/appendix-07-nightly-rust.html> and requires the -Z unstable-options flag to enable (see #14421 <https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/14421>). Miscellaneous Options-j N, --jobs N Number of parallel jobs to run. May also be specified
with the build.jobs config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Defaults to the
number of logical CPUs. If negative, it sets the maximum number of parallel
jobs to the number of logical CPUs plus provided value. If a string
default is provided, it sets the value back to defaults. Should not be
0.
--keep-going Build as many crates in the dependency graph as possible,
rather than aborting the build on the first one that fails to build.
For example if the current package depends on dependencies fails and works, one of which fails to build, cargo package -j1 may or may not build the one that succeeds (depending on which one of the two builds Cargo picked to run first), whereas cargo package -j1 --keep-going would definitely run both builds, even if the one run first fails. Display Options-v, --verbose Use verbose output. May be specified twice for
“very verbose” output which includes extra output such as
dependency warnings and build script output. May also be specified with the
term.verbose config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
-q, --quiet Do not print cargo log messages. May also be specified
with the term.quiet config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
--color when Control when colored output is used. Valid values:
•auto (default): Automatically detect if
color support is available on the terminal.
•always: Always display colors.
•never: Never display colors.
May also be specified with the term.color config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Common Options+toolchain If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first
argument to cargo begins with +, it will be interpreted as a
rustup toolchain name (such as +stable or +nightly). See the
rustup documentation
<https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html> for more information
about how toolchain overrides work.
--config KEY=VALUE or PATH Overrides a Cargo configuration value. The argument
should be in TOML syntax of KEY=VALUE, or provided as a path to an
extra configuration file. This flag may be specified multiple times. See the
command-line overrides section
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#command-line-overrides>
for more information.
-C PATH Changes the current working directory before executing
any specified operations. This affects things like where cargo looks by
default for the project manifest (Cargo.toml), as well as the
directories searched for discovering .cargo/config.toml, for example.
This option must appear before the command name, for example cargo -C
path/to/my-project build.
This option is only available on the nightly channel <https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/appendix-07-nightly-rust.html> and requires the -Z unstable-options flag to enable (see #10098 <https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/10098>). -h, --help Prints help information.
-Z flag Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run cargo -Z
help for details.
ENVIRONMENTSee the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html> for details on environment variables that Cargo reads. EXIT STATUS•0: Cargo succeeded.
•101: Cargo failed to complete.
