| Features | |||||
| -------- | |||||
| The following Cargo features are available: | |||||
| localdev (default) | |||||
| Produce files that work with an in-source-tree build. | |||||
| In this mode, the build finds and uses a ``python2.7`` binary from | |||||
| ``PATH``. The ``hg`` binary assumes it runs from ``rust/target/<target>hg`` | |||||
| and it finds Mercurial files at ``dirname($0)/../../../``. | |||||
| Build Mechanism | |||||
| --------------- | |||||
| The produced ``hg`` binary is *bound* to a CPython installation. The | |||||
| binary links against and loads a CPython library that is discovered | |||||
| at build time (by a ``build.rs`` Cargo build script). The Python | |||||
| standard library defined by this CPython installation is also used. | |||||
| Finding the appropriate CPython installation to use is done by | |||||
| the ``python27-sys`` crate's ``build.rs``. Its search order is:: | |||||
| 1. ``PYTHON_SYS_EXECUTABLE`` environment variable. | |||||
| 2. ``python`` executable on ``PATH`` | |||||
| 3. ``python2`` executable on ``PATH`` | |||||
| 4. ``python2.7`` executable on ``PATH`` | |||||
| Additional verification of the found Python will be performed by our | |||||
| ``build.rs`` to ensure it meets Mercurial's requirements. | |||||
| Details about the build-time configured Python are built into the | |||||
| produced ``hg`` binary. This means that a built ``hg`` binary is only | |||||
| suitable for a specific, well-defined role. These roles are controlled | |||||
| by Cargo features (see above). | |||||
| Running | |||||
| ======= | |||||
| The ``hgcli`` crate produces an ``hg`` binary. You can run this binary | |||||
| via ``cargo run``:: | |||||
| $ cargo run --manifest-path hgcli/Cargo.toml | |||||
| Or directly:: | |||||
| $ target/debug/hg | |||||
| $ target/release/hg | |||||
| You can also run the test harness with this binary:: | |||||
| $ ./run-tests.py --with-hg ../rust/target/debug/hg | |||||
| .. note:: | |||||
| Integration with the test harness is still preliminary. Remember to | |||||
| ``cargo build`` after changes because the test harness doesn't yet | |||||
| automatically build Rust code. | |||||
| =================== | |||||
| Mercurial Rust Code | |||||
| =================== | |||||
| This directory contains various Rust code for the Mercurial project. | |||||
| The top-level ``Cargo.toml`` file defines a workspace containing | |||||
| all primary Mercurial crates. | |||||
| Building | |||||
