Configurations
sparse-crates.useCargoCache: If true, Cargo's index cache is searched first before the registries. Cache must be stored in the sparse format.
sparse-crates.cratesIoIndex: The index URL of the default crates.io registry. Change this value only if you use a remote or local mirror of crates.io. The index must use the sparse protocol. Use a file URL if the mirror is on disk.
sparse-crates.cratesIoCache: The index cache directory of the default crates.io registry. Change this value only if you use a remote or local mirror of crates.io. You can find the directories at CARGO_HOME/registry/index.
sparse-crates.registries: An array of alternate registries. Each item is an object with two required and two optional properties.
{
"name": "(Required) The name of the registry. The name of the registry. It must be the same as your dependencies' \"registry\" key.",
"index": "(Required) The index URL of the registry. The index must use the sparse protocol. Use a file URL if the registry is on disk.",
"cache": "(Optional) Cargo's index cache directory of the registry. You can find the directories at CARGO_HOME/registry/index. Cache is not searched for the registry if this property is not given.",
"docs": "(Optional) The docs URL of the registry, if one exists. The link to the docs of a specific version of a crate is obtained by `${docs}${name}/${version}`. This is only used when rendering hover messages on the decorators."
