What is cargo-hoist?
cargo-hoist
is an ultra lightweight, dead simple cargo subcommand that memoizes cargo-built binaries using a global toml cache file. Since the global toml file contains a memoized list of the built binary paths, the hoist
subcommand can then be used to manipulate cargo-built binaries in a whole variety of ways.
Primarily, binaries can be pulled into the current working directory using cargo hoist <bin name>
(the default, flagless hoist
command). To load the binary into path, you can run cargo hoist <bin name> --path
.
Often, it's added overhead to remember where your binary is built within the target/..
directories. cargo-hoist
makes it easy to find locally built binaries using the --list
(or -l
shorthand) flag.
Usage
Install cargo-hoist
using cargo.
cargo install cargo-hoist
