Add Cargo.lock
A tool for formatting Rust code according to style guidelines.
If you‘d like to help out (and you should, it’s a fun project!), see Contributing.md.
If you want latest and greatest, you should use the libsyntax branch. It supports some newer Rust syntax which is missing from master and fixes some bugs. However, it links against libsyntax from the Rust compiler, so you must be using a nightly version of Rust to use it.
To install:
cargo install rustfmt
to run on a cargo project in the current working directory:
cargo fmt
Note: this method currently requires you to be running cargo 0.6.0 or newer.
cargo install rustfmt
or if you're using rustup.rs
rustup run nightly cargo install rustfmt
Usually cargo-fmt, which enables usage of Cargo subcommand cargo fmt
, is installed alongside rustfmt. To only install rustfmt run
cargo install --no-default-features rustfmt
To install from source, first checkout to the tag or branch you want to install, then issue
cargo install --path .
This will install rustfmt
in your ~/.cargo/bin
. Make sure to add ~/.cargo/bin
directory to your PATH variable.
You can run Rustfmt by just typing rustfmt filename
if you used cargo install
. This runs rustfmt on the given file, if the file includes out of line modules, then we reformat those too. So to run on a whole module or crate, you just need to run on the root file (usually mod.rs or lib.rs). Rustfmt can also read data from stdin. Alternatively, you can use cargo fmt
to format all binary and library targets of your crate.
You'll probably want to specify the write mode. Currently, there are modes for diff, replace, overwrite, display, coverage, and checkstyle.
replace
Is the default and overwrites the original files after creating backups of the files.overwrite
Overwrites the original files without creating backups.display
Will print the formatted files to stdout.diff
Will print a diff between the original files and formatted files to stdout. Will also exit with an error code if there are any differences.checkstyle
Will output the lines that need to be corrected as a checkstyle XML file, that can be used by tools like Jenkins.The write mode can be set by passing the --write-mode
flag on the command line. For example rustfmt --write-mode=display src/filename.rs
cargo fmt
uses --write-mode=replace
by default.
If you want to restrict reformatting to specific sets of lines, you can use the --file-lines
option. Its argument is a JSON array of objects with file
and range
properties, where file
is a file name, and range
is an array representing a range of lines like [7,13]
. Ranges are 1-based and inclusive of both end points. Specifying an empty array will result in no files being formatted. For example,
rustfmt --file-lines '[ {"file":"src/lib.rs","range":[7,13]}, {"file":"src/lib.rs","range":[21,29]}, {"file":"src/foo.rs","range":[10,11]}, {"file":"src/foo.rs","range":[15,15]}]'
would format lines 7-13
and 21-29
of src/lib.rs
, and lines 10-11
, and 15
of src/foo.rs
. No other files would be formatted, even if they are included as out of line modules from src/lib.rs
.
If rustfmt
successfully reformatted the code it will exit with 0
exit status. Exit status 1
signals some unexpected error, like an unknown option or a failure to read a file. Exit status 2
is returned if there are syntax errors in the input files. rustfmt
can‘t format syntatically invalid code. Finally, exit status 3
is returned if there are some issues which can’t be resolved automatically. For example, if you have a very long comment line rustfmt
doesn't split it. Instead it prints a warning and exits with 3
.
You can run rustfmt --help
for more information.
To keep your code base consistently formatted, it can be helpful to fail the CI build when a pull request contains unformatted code. Using --write-mode=diff
instructs rustfmt to exit with an error code if the input is not formatted correctly. It will also print any found differences.
A minimal Travis setup could look like this:
language: rust cache: cargo before_script: - export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.cargo/bin" - which rustfmt || cargo install rustfmt script: - cargo fmt -- --write-mode=diff - cargo build - cargo test
Note that using cache: cargo
is optional but highly recommended to speed up the installation.
cargo build
to build.
cargo test
to run all tests.
To run rustfmt after this, use cargo run --bin rustfmt -- filename
. See the notes above on running rustfmt.
Rustfmt is designed to be very configurable. You can create a TOML file called rustfmt.toml
or .rustfmt.toml
, place it in the project or any other parent directory and it will apply the options in that file. See rustfmt --config-help
for the options which are available, or if you prefer to see visual style previews, Configurations.md.
By default, Rustfmt uses a style which (mostly) conforms to the Rust style guidelines. There are many details which the style guidelines do not cover, and in these cases we try to adhere to a style similar to that used in the Rust repo. Once Rustfmt is more complete, and able to re-format large repositories like Rust, we intend to go through the Rust RFC process to nail down the default style in detail.
If there are styling choices you don't agree with, we are usually happy to add options covering different styles. File an issue, or even better, submit a PR.
For things you do not want rustfmt to mangle, use one of
#[rustfmt_skip] // requires nightly and #![feature(custom_attribute)] in crate root #[cfg_attr(rustfmt, rustfmt_skip)] // works in stable
When you run rustfmt, place a file named rustfmt.toml
or .rustfmt.toml
in target file directory or its parents to override the default settings of rustfmt.
After successful compilation, a rustfmt
executable can be found in the target directory.
If you're having issues compiling Rustfmt (or compile errors when trying to install), make sure you have the most recent version of Rust installed.
