If you do not specify an output hash for a git dependency, building
`cargoDeps` will fail and inform you of which crate needs to be
added. To find the correct hash, you can first use `lib.fakeSha256` or
`lib.fakeHash` as a stub hash. Building `cargoDeps` will then inform
you of the correct hash.
#### Hooks {#hooks}
`rustPlatform` provides the following hooks to automate Cargo builds:
* `cargoSetupHook`: configure Cargo to use dependencies vendored
through `fetchCargoVendor` or `importCargoLock`. This hook uses the
`cargoDeps` environment variable to find the vendored
dependencies. If a project already vendors its dependencies, the
variable `cargoVendorDir` can be used instead. When the
`Cargo.toml`/`Cargo.lock` files are not in `sourceRoot`, then the
optional `cargoRoot` is used to specify the Cargo root directory
relative to `sourceRoot`.
* `cargoBuildHook`: use Cargo to build a crate. If the crate to be
built is a crate in e.g. a Cargo workspace, the relative path to the
crate to build can be set through the optional `buildAndTestSubdir`
environment variable. Features can be specified with
`cargoBuildNoDefaultFeatures` and `cargoBuildFeatures`. Additional
Cargo build flags can be passed through `cargoBuildFlags`.
* `maturinBuildHook`: use [Maturin](https://github.com/PyO3/maturin)
to build a Python wheel. Similar to `cargoBuildHook`, the optional
variable `buildAndTestSubdir` can be used to build a crate in a
Cargo workspace. Additional Maturin flags can be passed through
`maturinBuildFlags`.
* `cargoCheckHook`: run tests using Cargo. The build type for checks
can be set using `cargoCheckType`. Features can be specified with
`cargoCheckNoDefaultFeatures` and `cargoCheckFeatures`. Additional
flags can be passed to the tests using `checkFlags` and
`checkFlagsArray`. By default, tests are run in parallel. This can
be disabled by setting `dontUseCargoParallelTests`.
* `cargoNextestHook`: run tests using
[cargo-nextest](https://github.com/nextest-rs/nextest). The same
options for `cargoCheckHook` also applies to `cargoNextestHook`.
* `cargoInstallHook`: install binaries and static/shared libraries
that were built using `cargoBuildHook`.
* `bindgenHook`: for crates which use `bindgen` as a build dependency, lets
`bindgen` find `libclang` and `libclang` find the libraries in `buildInputs`.
#### Examples {#examples}
#### Python package using `setuptools-rust` {#python-package-using-setuptools-rust}
For Python packages using `setuptools-rust`, you can use
`fetchCargoVendor` and `cargoSetupHook` to retrieve and set up Cargo
dependencies. The build itself is then performed by
`buildPythonPackage`.
The following example outlines how the `tokenizers` Python package is
built. Since the Python package is in the `source/bindings/python`
directory of the `tokenizers` project's source archive, we use
`sourceRoot` to point the tooling to this directory:
```nix
{
fetchFromGitHub,
buildPythonPackage,
cargo,
rustPlatform,
rustc,
setuptools-rust,
}:
buildPythonPackage rec {
pname = "tokenizers";
version = "0.10.0";
src = fetchFromGitHub {
owner = "huggingface";
repo = "tokenizers";
tag = "python-v${version}";
hash = "sha256-rQ2hRV52naEf6PvRsWVCTN7B1oXAQGmnpJw4iIdhamw=";
};
cargoDeps = rustPlatform.fetchCargoVendor {
inherit
pname
version
src
sourceRoot
;
hash = "sha256-RO1m8wEd5Ic2M9q+zFHeCJWhCr4Sv3CEWd08mkxsBec=";
};
sourceRoot = "${src.name}/bindings/python";
nativeBuildInputs = [
cargo
rustPlatform.cargoSetupHook
rustc
setuptools-rust
];
# ...
}
```
In some projects, the Rust crate is not in the main Python source
directory. In such cases, the `cargoRoot` attribute can be used to
specify the crate's directory relative to `sourceRoot`. In the
