How to build in portable mode?
stefan2904 opened this issue · comments
I am currently playing around with this lib. While doing so I tried to build in portable mode.
The recommended way of doing so, according to the README:
cargo build --release --no-default-features --features=portable
If compiling that way, cargo fails with:
error: --features is not allowed in the root of a virtual workspace
note: while this was previously accepted, it didn't actually do anything
So I checked your CI file, in which you first compile the whole project with default features, and than just libzmix with portable feature enabled:
cargo build
cargo build --manifest-path=libzmix/Cargo.toml --no-default-features --features=portable
Does that make sense? Is that correct?
If yes, I propose to add that information to the README.
(I can do a PR, but I don't understand the library well enough to be sure it is the correct way of doing this.)
Yes we do need to update the documentation since each subproject can be built for portable.
If you need just ursa primitives, you would build it
cargo build --manifest-path=libursa/Cargo.toml --release --no-default-features --features=portable
The other command is for zmix.
next steps:
- make sure the posted solution still works
- update the documentation
