FILES

~/.cargo/

Default location for Cargos "home" directory where it stores various files. The location can be changed with the CARGO_HOME environment variable.

$CARGO_HOME/bin/

Binaries installed by man:cargo-install[1] will be located here. If using rustup, executables distributed with Rust are also located here.

$CARGO_HOME/config

The global configuration file. See linkcargo:reference/config.html[the reference] for more information about configuration files.

.cargo/config

Cargo automatically searches for a file named .cargo/config in the current directory, and all parent directories. These configuration files will be merged with the global configuration file.

$CARGO_HOME/credentials

Private authentication information for logging in to a registry.

$CARGO_HOME/registry/

This directory contains cached downloads of the registry index and any downloaded dependencies.

$CARGO_HOME/git/

This directory contains cached downloads of git dependencies.

EXAMPLES

  1. Build a local package and all of its dependencies:

    cargo build
  2. Build a package with optimizations:

    cargo build --release
  3. Run tests for a cross-compiled target:

    cargo test --target i686-unknown-linux-gnu
  4. Create a new package that builds an executable:

    cargo new foobar
  5. Create a package in the current directory:

    mkdir foo && cd foo
    cargo init .
  6. Learn about a commands options and usage:

    cargo help clean
