Rustwrap




A tool that helps wrap binary releases for easy distribution. Currently supporting:

* **npm** - `npm install -g your-tool` will make your binary `your-tool` available via the CLI. `rustwrap` creates the necessary binary packages and root package with a Node.js shim that delegates running to your platform-specific bin.
* **Homebrew** - creates a recipe and saves or publishes it to your tap.

## Download

For macOS:

```
brew tap rusty-ferris-club/tap && brew install rustwrap
```
Through cargo:

```
cargo install rustwrap
```

Or [cargo-binstall](https://github.com/cargo-bins/cargo-binstall) for installing binaries (save compilation time):

```
cargo binstall rustwrap
```

Otherwise, grab a release from [releases](https://github.com/rusty-ferris-club/rustwrap/releases) and run `rustwrap --help`:

## Getting started

Build a single `rustwrap.yaml`, and describe which releases you have an where to get them per platform, and your provider blocks.

Use `__VERSION__` when you want the actual version replaced.

```yaml
targets:
- platform: win32
arch: x64
url_template: https://github.com/rusty-ferris-club/recon/releases/download/v__VERSION__/recon-x86_64-windows.zip
- platform: linux
arch: x64
url_template: https://github.com/rusty-ferris-club/recon/releases/download/v__VERSION__/recon-x86_64-linux.tar.xz
- platform: darwin
arch: x64
url_template: https://github.com/rusty-ferris-club/recon/releases/download/v__VERSION__/recon-x86_64-macos.tar.xz
- platform: darwin
arch: x64
url_template: https://github.com/rusty-ferris-club/recon/releases/download/v__VERSION__/recon-aarch64-macos.tar.xz

# provider: npm
# both recon-root.json and recon-sub.json paths are relative to working folder
npm:
publish: false # dont publish to npm, just generate the packages on disk
org: "@recontools"
name: recon
root:
name: recon-tool
manifest: rustwrap/fixtures/config/recon-root.json
readme: rustwrap/fixtures/config/README.md
sub:
manifest: rustwrap/fixtures/config/recon-sub.json
readme: rustwrap/fixtures/config/README.md

# provider: homebrew
brew:
name: recon
publish: true # push an update commit to the tap repo
tap: jondot/homebrew-tap
recipe_fname: recon.rb
recipe_template: |
class Recon < Formula
desc "recon"
homepage "http://www.example.com"
version "__VERSION__"
url "__URL__"
sha256 "__SHA__"

def install
bin.install "recon"
end
end
```
With your `rustwrap.yaml` and relevant files in the current working folder, run:

```
$ rustwrap --tag 0.6.0
```

The `--tag` value replaces the `__VERSION__` value.

# About

This tool was inspired in part by the [Rome toolchain and infrastructure](https://github.com/rome/tools) built for releasing Rome on `npm`.

I gave it some generic abilities (downloading releases independently) and tweaks, and extended it with a Homebrew provider, something which I needed for a while now.

* It can be used for any self-contained binary produced in any language, not just Rust
* Accepting PRs for more providers
