cargo-hack
Cargo subcommand to provide various options useful for testing and continuous integration.
USAGE:
cargo hack [OPTIONS] [SUBCOMMAND]
Use -h for short descriptions and --help for more details.
OPTIONS:
-p, --package <SPEC>...
Package(s) to check.
--all
Alias for --workspace.
--workspace
Perform command for all packages in the workspace.
--exclude <SPEC>...
Exclude packages from the check.
This flag can only be used together with --workspace
--manifest-path <PATH>
Path to Cargo.toml.
-F, --features <FEATURES>...
Space or comma separated list of features to activate.
--each-feature
Perform for each feature of the package.
This also includes runs with just --no-default-features flag, and default features.
When this flag is not used together with --exclude-features (--skip) and
--include-features and there are multiple features, this also includes runs with just
--all-features flag.
--feature-powerset
Perform for the feature powerset of the package.
This also includes runs with just --no-default-features flag, and default features.
When this flag is used together with --depth or namespaced features (-Z
namespaced-features) and not used together with --exclude-features (--skip) and
--include-features and there are multiple features, this also includes runs with just
--all-features flag.
--optional-deps [DEPS]...
Use optional dependencies as features.
If DEPS are not specified, all optional dependencies are considered as features.
This flag can only be used together with either --each-feature flag or
--feature-powerset flag.
--skip <FEATURES>...
Alias for --exclude-features.
--exclude-features <FEATURES>...
Space or comma separated list of features to exclude.
To exclude run of default feature, using value `--exclude-features default`.
To exclude run of just --no-default-features flag, using --exclude-no-default-features
flag.
To exclude run of just --all-features flag, using --exclude-all-features flag.
This flag can only be used together with either --each-feature flag or
--feature-powerset flag.
--exclude-no-default-features
Exclude run of just --no-default-features flag.
This flag can only be used together with either --each-feature flag or
--feature-powerset flag.
--exclude-all-features
Exclude run of just --all-features flag.
This flag can only be used together with either --each-feature flag or
--feature-powerset flag.
--depth <NUM>
Specify a max number of simultaneous feature flags of --feature-powerset.
If NUM is set to 1, --feature-powerset is equivalent to --each-feature.
This flag can only be used together with --feature-powerset flag.
--group-features <FEATURES>...
Space or comma separated list of features to group.
To specify multiple groups, use this option multiple times: `--group-features a,b
--group-features c,d`
This flag can only be used together with --feature-powerset flag.
--include-features <FEATURES>...
Include only the specified features in the feature combinations instead of package
features.
This flag can only be used together with either --each-feature flag or
--feature-powerset flag.
--no-dev-deps
Perform without dev-dependencies.
Note that this flag removes dev-dependencies from real `Cargo.toml` while cargo-hack is
running and restores it when finished.
--remove-dev-deps
Equivalent to --no-dev-deps flag except for does not restore the original `Cargo.toml`
after performed.
--no-private
Perform without `publish = false` crates.
--ignore-private
Skip to perform on `publish = false` packages.
--ignore-unknown-features
Skip passing --features flag to `cargo` if that feature does not exist in the package.
This flag can only be used together with either --features or --include-features.
--version-range <START>..[END]
Perform commands on a specified (inclusive) range of Rust versions.
If the given range is unclosed, the latest stable compiler is treated as the upper
bound.
Note that ranges are always inclusive ranges.
--version-step <NUM>
Specify the version interval of --version-range (default to `1`).
This flag can only be used together with --version-range flag.
--clean-per-run
Remove artifacts for that package before running the command.
If used this flag with --workspace, --each-feature, or --feature-powerset, artifacts
will be removed before each run.
Note that dependencies artifacts will be preserved.
--clean-per-version
Remove artifacts per Rust version.
Note that dependencies artifacts will also be removed.
This flag can only be used together with --version-range flag.
--keep-going
Keep going on failure.
--print-command-list
Print commands without run (Unstable).
--no-manifest-path
Do not pass --manifest-path option to cargo (Unstable).
-v, --verbose
Use verbose output.
--color <WHEN>
Coloring: auto, always, never.
This flag will be propagated to cargo.
-h, --help
Prints help information.
-V, --version
Prints version information.
Some common cargo commands are (see all commands with --list):
build Compile the current package
check Analyze the current package and report errors, but don't build object files
run Run a binary or example of the local package
test Run the tests
cargo-hack
is basically wrapper of cargo
that propagates subcommand and most
of the passed flags to cargo
, but provides additional flags and changes the
behavior of some existing flags.
Perform for each feature which includes default features and
--no-default-features
of the package.
This is useful to check that each feature is working properly. (When used for
this purpose, it is recommended to use with --no-dev-deps
to avoid
cargo#4866.)
cargo hack check --each-feature --no-dev-deps
See also Options for adjusting the behavior of --each-feature and --feature-powerset section.
Perform for the feature powerset which includes --no-default-features
and
default features of the package.
This is useful to check that every combination of features is working
properly. (When used for this purpose, it is recommended to use with
--no-dev-deps
to avoid cargo#4866.)
cargo hack check --feature-powerset --no-dev-deps
cargo-hack deduplicate any fully equivalent feature combinations based on how the cargo features work. Therefore, it may be more efficient than checking all feature combinations in other ways.
When using this flag results in a very large number of feature combinations, consider using --depth
option.
See also Options for adjusting the behavior of --each-feature and --feature-powerset section.
The following flags can be used with --each-feature
and --feature-powerset
.
Use optional dependencies as features.
This flag treats all option dependencies as features by default. To treat only specific dependencies as features, pass a space or comma separated list.
cargo hack check --feature-powerset --optional-deps deps1,deps2
Space or comma separated list of features to exclude.
cargo hack check --feature-powerset --exclude-features feature1,feature2
cargo hack check --feature-powerset --skip feature1,feature2
Specify a max number of simultaneous feature flags of --feature-powerset
.
If the number is set to 1, --feature-powerset
is equivalent to
--each-feature
.
Space or comma separated list of features to group.
To specify multiple groups, use this option multiple times:
--group-features a,b --group-features c,d
Perform commands on a specified (inclusive) range of Rust versions.
$ cargo hack check --version-range 1.46..1.47
info: running `cargo +1.46 check` on cargo-hack (1/2)
...
info: running `cargo +1.47 check` on cargo-hack (2/2)
...
This might be useful for catching issues like termcolor#35, regex#685, rust-clippy#6324.
If the upper bound of the range is omitted, the latest stable compiler is used as the upper bound.
If the lower bound of the range is omitted, the value of the rust-version
field in Cargo.toml
is used as the lower bound.
You can specify the version interval by using --version-step
.
Perform without dev-dependencies.
This is a workaround for an issue that dev-dependencies leaking into normal build (cargo#4866).
Also, this can be used as a workaround for an issue that cargo
does not
allow publishing a package with cyclic dev-dependencies. (cargo#4242)
cargo hack publish --no-dev-deps --dry-run --allow-dirty
Note: Currently, using --no-dev-deps
flag removes dev-dependencies from
real manifest while cargo-hack is running and restores it when finished.
See cargo#4242 for why this is necessary.
Also, this behavior may change in the future on some subcommands. See also
#15.
Equivalent to --no-dev-deps
except for does not restore the original
Cargo.toml
after execution.
This is useful to know what Cargo.toml that cargo-hack is actually using
with --no-dev-deps
.
This flag also works without subcommands.
Skip to perform on publish = false
crates.
Perform without publish = false
crates. This is similar to --ignore-private
, but is more powerful because this also prevents private crates from affecting lockfile and metadata.
Note: --no-private
flag modifies Cargo.toml
while cargo-hack is running and restores it when finished.
Skip passing --features
to cargo
if that feature does not exist.
Remove artifacts for that package before running the command.
This also works as a workaround for rust-clippy#4612.
cargo-hack
changes the behavior of the following existing flags.
Unlike cargo
(cargo#3620, cargo#4106, cargo#4463, cargo#4753,
cargo#5015, cargo#5364, cargo#6195), it can also be applied to
sub-crates.
Perform command for all packages in the workspace.
Unlike cargo, it does not compile all members at once.
For example, running cargo hack check --all
in a workspace with members
foo
and bar
behaves almost the same as the following script:
# If you use cargo-hack, you don't need to maintain this list manually.
members=("foo" "bar")
for member in "${members[@]}"; do
cargo check --manifest-path "${member}/Cargo.toml"
done
Workspace members will be performed according to the order of the 'packages'
fields of cargo metadata
.
cargo +stable install cargo-hack --locked
Compiler support: requires rustc 1.64+
cargo-hack is usually runnable with Cargo versions older than the Rust version
required for installation (e.g., cargo +1.31 hack check
). Currently, to run
cargo-hack requires Cargo 1.26+.
You can download prebuilt binaries from the Release page. Prebuilt binaries are available for macOS, Linux (gnu and musl), Windows (static executable), and FreeBSD.
Example of script to download cargo-hack
# Get host target
host=$(rustc -Vv | grep host | sed 's/host: //')
# Download binary and install to $HOME/.cargo/bin
curl -LsSf https://github.com/taiki-e/cargo-hack/releases/latest/download/cargo-hack-$host.tar.gz | tar xzf - -C $HOME/.cargo/bin
You can use taiki-e/install-action to install prebuilt binaries on Linux, macOS, and Windows. This makes the installation faster and may avoid the impact of problems caused by upstream changes.
