Hello,

I can't figure out how to build this in a way that I later can run it. This is my first Rust thing ever. I have installed rustup and it got me cargo. I have run cargo build and it compiles everything, even if there are some deprecation warnings.

Running cargo run gives me:

a bin target must be available for `cargo run`

I've also tried cargo build --all-targets and the tests got my machine really hot, but still the same cargo run results.

I checked the video presentation linked in the README and saw the command cargo run --bin server -- -- used, but it gives me:

error: no bin target named `server`

I also looked at the Travis file and did the clippy things (w/o having the faintest idea about what I am doing), but same results.

Now I am out of ideas, and love me some clues.

Hi,

I have installed rustup and it got me cargo. I have run cargo build and it compiles everything, even if there are some deprecation warnings.

So far, so good!

a bin target must be available for cargo run

Cargo differentiates between libraries and binaries. Declarative-dataflow (the main directory) contains only the library. Check out the server/ directory for the server binary. If you run cargo run within that subdirectory, you should be able to run the binary.

Clippy is a tool that checks our code for common issues / style problems. It's not required for the build to work.

Good luck!

Add README info about how to start the server

Fixes comnik#86 

Not at all sure you want this info here. 😄

If the info is appropriate, then maybe also inform about which port it starts listening to. (Something I think should be showing in the ”Server running” message.)

Yes, that worked. Thanks!

I proposed an addition about this to the README. Maybe more non-rustians (or whatever you call yourselves 😄) would benefit from that.

OK. So hadn't created the PR. Now I have proposed the add. 😏
