Crates-io: Simplify Dependency Management in Rust & VSCode
Crates-io
Welcome to Crates-io, the ultimate Rust extension for VSCode! Simplify your dependency management with ease while using Cargo.toml for your project.
Why fork ?
The original extension Crates is now deprecated and will no longer receive updates or bug fixes. This fork adds the long-awaited Alternate Registries functionality, and fixes some bugs.
Key Features
Crates-io offers a range of powerful features to streamline your Rust development workflow:
Version Information: Crates-io provides comprehensive version information to keep you informed about the crates in your project. This includes a tooltip with detailed version details and inline visual feedback for quick reference and decision-making.
Shortcut Commands: Update all dependencies with just one command for a seamless workflow.
Doc.rs integration: Explore comprehensive documentation for Rust, including crates, libraries, and more, with the seamless integration of Doc.rs.
Alternate registries: Crates-io support your alternate registries without any configuration.
Getting Started
Using Crates-io is incredibly simple. Just install the extension from the Visual Studio Marketplace, and you're ready to go!
Configuration Options
While Crates-io works out-of-the-box without any configuration, we also offer a few customizable options:
settings.json
crates.listPreReleases: Enable this option to list pre-release versions in hover and decorations. By default, it is set to false.
crates.indexServerURL: Specify a custom URL for the crates.io index server. The default value connects to the official index.
crates.errorDecorator: Customize the text displayed when a dependency has errors. The default is ❗️❗️❗.
crates.compatibleDecorator: Define the text template to show when a dependency is semver compatible. ${version} will be replaced by the latest version info. The default is ✅.
crates.incompatibleDecorator: Set the text template to show when a dependency is not semver compatible. ${version} will be replaced by the latest version info. The default is ❌ ${version}.
Cargo.toml
dependency = "*" # crates: disable-check: Disable version check for this specific dependency.
