This GitHub Action installs
[Rust toolchain](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/concepts/toolchains.html#toolchain-specification)
with the help of [rustup](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup).

It supports additional targets, components, profiles and handles all these small
paper cuts for you.

## Example workflow

```yaml
on: [push]

name: build

jobs:
check:
name: Rust project
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- name: Install latest nightly
uses: crusty-pie/toolchain@v1
with:
toolchain: nightly
override: true
components: rustfmt, clippy

# `cargo check` command here will use installed `nightly`
# as it is set as an "override" for current directory
- name: Run cargo check
run: cargo check
```

## Inputs

| Name | Required | Description | Type | Default |
|--------------|:--------:|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------|---------|
| `toolchain` | false | [Toolchain](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup.rs#toolchain-specification) name to use, ex. `stable`, `nightly`, `nightly-2019-04-20`, or `1.32.0` | string | stable |
| `profile` | false | Execute `rustup set profile {value}` before installing the toolchain, ex. `minimal` | string | default |
| `components` | false | Comma-separated list of the additional components to install, ex. `clippy, rustfmt` | string | '' |
| `targets` | false | Comma-separated list of the additional targets for the toolchain, ex. `x86_64-apple-darwin` | string | '' |
| `default` | false | Set installed toolchain as a default toolchain | bool | false |
| `override` | false | Set installed toolchain as an override for the current directory | bool | false |
| `force` | false | Force an update, even if some components are missing | bool | false |

Note: since `v1.0.4` version, `toolchain` input is not marked as required
to support toolchain files.
See the details [below](#the-toolchain-file).

## Outputs

Installed `rustc`, `cargo` and `rustup` versions can be fetched from the Action outputs:

| Name | Description | Example |
|--------------|--------------------|---------------------------------|
| `rustc` | Rustc version | `1.40.0 (73528e339 2019-12-16)` |
| `rustc_hash` | Rustc version hash | `73528e339` |
| `cargo` | Cargo version | `1.40.0 (bc8e4c8be 2019-11-22)` |
| `rustup` | rustup version | `1.21.1 (7832b2ebe 2019-12-20)` |

Note: `rustc_hash` output value can be used with [actions/cache](https://github.com/actions/cache) Action
to store cache for different Rust versions, as it is unique across different Rust versions and builds (including `nightly`).

## Profiles

This Action supports rustup [profiles](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2019/10/15/Rustup-1.20.0.html#profiles),
which can be used to speed up the workflow execution by installing the
minimally required to be set of components, for example:

```yaml
- name: Install minimal nightly
uses: crusty-pie/toolchain@v1
with:
profile: minimal
toolchain: nightly
```

This Action will automatically run `rustup self update` if `profile` input is set
and the installed `rustup` version does not support them.

To provide backwards compatibility for `v1` version, there is no value for
`profile` input set by default, which means that the `default` profile is used
by `rustup` (and that includes `rust-docs`, `clippy` and `rustfmt`).

You may want to consider using `profile: minimal` to speed up toolchain installation.

## Components

This Action supports rustup [components](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2019/10/15/Rustup-1.20.0.html#installing-the-latest-compatible-nightly) too,
and in combination with the [profiles](#profiles) input it allows to install only the needed components:

```yaml
- name: Install minimal stable with clippy and rustfmt
uses: crusty-pie/toolchain@v1
with:
profile: minimal
toolchain: stable
components: rustfmt, clippy
```

As an extra perk, `rustup >= 1.20.0` is able to find the most recent `nightly` toolchain
with the requested components available; next example is utilizing this feature
to install the minimal set of `nightly` toolchain components with the `rustfmt` and `clippy` extras:

```yaml
- name: Install minimal nightly with clippy and rustfmt
uses: crusty-pie/toolchain@v1
with:
profile: minimal
toolchain: nightly
components: rustfmt, clippy
```

In case if `nightly` toolchain is requested and one of the components is missing in
latest `nightly` release, this Action will attempt the downgrade till it find
the most recent `nightly` with all components needed.

Note that this behavior will work only if the following two conditions apply:

1. `toolchain` input is `nightly` exactly.
2. At least one component is provided in `components` input.

Same to the `profile` input, if installed `rustup` does not support
"components" it will be automatically upgraded by this Action.

## The toolchain file

This Action supports [toolchain files](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html#the-toolchain-file),
so it is not necessary to use `toolchain` input anymore.

Input has higher priority, so if you want to use toolchain file,
you need to remove the input from the workflow file.

If neither `toolchain` input or `rust-toolchain` file are provided,
Action execution will fail.
