krate 📦
Asynchonously get information and metadata for a Rust Crate published on Crates.io!
krate
additionally comes with struct Krate
which contains a partially implemented data model for the &Crates.io API/V1 Contract.
NOTE: Currently there is no publically docuemented API contract for the Crates.io API/V1 Contract so any changes or null
values passed via the API could break serialization. 🤷♂️
Please see the crawler policy on Crates.io if you are planning to use this library to crawl or access the crates data.
Usage
$> cargo add krate
main.rs
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
// Use Krate::get_async to get information on a particular Krate!
match krate::get_async("serde", "My User Agent Tool).await {
Ok(serde_crate) => {
println!("Krate: {}", serde_crate.krate.name);
println!("Latest Version: {}", serde_crate.get_latest());
println!("Description: {}", serde_crate.krate.description );
},
Err(e) => println!("Error: {e}"),
}
}
This is a very small implementation! For more robust client see @TheDuke's crates-io-api
