.SH "NAME"
cargo\-locate\-project \[em] Print a JSON representation of a Cargo.toml file\[cq]s location
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBcargo locate\-project\fR [\fIoptions\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This command will print a JSON object to stdout with the full path to the manifest. The
manifest is found by searching upward for a file named \fBCargo.toml\fR starting from the current
working directory.
.sp
If the project happens to be a part of a workspace, the manifest of the project, rather than
the workspace root, is output. This can be overridden by the \fB\-\-workspace\fR flag. The root
workspace is found by traversing further upward or by using the field \fBpackage.workspace\fR after
locating the manifest of a workspace member.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.sp
\fB\-\-workspace\fR
.RS 4
Locate the \fBCargo.toml\fR at the root of the workspace, as opposed to the current
workspace member.

includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build script output.
May also be specified with the \fBterm.verbose\fR
\fIconfig value\fR <https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>\&.

.SS "Manifest Options"
.sp
\fB\-\-manifest\-path\fR \fIpath\fR

Path to the \fBCargo.toml\fR file. By default, Cargo searches for the
\fBCargo.toml\fR file in the current directory or any parent directory.

.sp
\fB+\fR\fItoolchain\fR
.RS 4
If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to \fBcargo\fR
begins with \fB+\fR, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain name (such
as \fB+stable\fR or \fB+nightly\fR).
See the \fIrustup documentation\fR <https://rust\-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html>
for more information about how toolchain overrides work.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-config\fR \fIKEY=VALUE\fR or \fIPATH\fR
.RS 4
Overrides a Cargo configuration value. The argument should be in TOML syntax of \fBKEY=VALUE\fR,
or provided as a path to an extra configuration file. This flag may be specified multiple times.
See the \fIcommand\-line overrides section\fR <https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#command\-line\-overrides> for more information.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-C\fR \fIPATH\fR
.RS 4
Changes the current working directory before executing any specified operations. This affects
things like where cargo looks by default for the project manifest (\fBCargo.toml\fR), as well as
the directories searched for discovering \fB\&.cargo/config.toml\fR, for example. This option must
appear before the command name, for example \fBcargo \-C path/to/my\-project build\fR\&.
.sp
This option is only available on the \fInightly
channel\fR <https://doc.rust\-lang.org/book/appendix\-07\-nightly\-rust.html> and
requires the \fB\-Z unstable\-options\fR flag to enable (see
\fI#10098\fR <https://github.com/rust\-lang/cargo/issues/10098>).
