Note that it is highly recommended to use something like
cargo-hakari
to avoid cache misses when building various workspace crates.
To build a cargo workspace with a comprehensive test suite, run the following in a fresh directory:
nix flake init -t github:ipetkov/crane#quick-start-workspace
Alternatively, if you have an existing project already, copy and paste the
following flake.nix
:
{
description = "Build a cargo workspace";
inputs = {
nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixpkgs-unstable";
crane.url = "github:ipetkov/crane";
