vivekanandan_ks | Hi All
Yesterday, I started looking for setting up an environment to learn rust😅.
I dwelled on setting up the environment and basic build through the help of some wiki and mainly vimjoyer's video.
Here's a hello world template of mine.
https://github.com/vivekanandan-ks/ksv-rust-try/blob/main/flake.nix
I have these configured:
Devshells :
- using nixpkgs and cargo, rustc etc (only stable from nixpkgs)
- using fenix for the toolchain (since this can be used for stable, beta, nightly releases)
Packages:
- plain: pkgs.rustPlatform.buildRustPackage
- naersk
- fenix + plain
- fenix + naersk
Any suggestion or improvements over this please😅

K900 | Honestly if your goal is to learn Rust, just nix-shell -p rustc cargo | 07:58:31 |
vivekanandan_ks | My goal is to package mainly, also wanted to learn rust on the way😅 | 08:03:36 |
K900 | If you want to package for nixpkgs, the only thing you can use is rustPlatform | 08:04:12 |
K900 | No out of tree dependencies are allowed | 08:04:24 |
@acidbong:envs.net | In reply to @vivekanandan_ks:matrix.org My goal is to package mainly, also wanted to learn rust on the way😅 then it's just a matter of creating a package with rustPlatform.buildRustPackage and a devshell with inputsFrom = [thatPackage]; nativeBuildInputs = [rust-analyzer]; and a formatter of your choice (rustfmt or genemichaels) | 08:12:13 |
vivekanandan_ks | Looks like there's more for me to learn. But it somewhat feels easier than the rabbit hole I went for python packaging in nix🥲
Looks like rust toolchain ecosystem is better

@acidbong:envs.net | i'd say there's less to learn (I find Fenix and such too convoluted for me) | 05:02:36 |
vivekanandan_ks | Yes.
It's just for trying out other toolchain like beta, nightly etc.
It's not that hard too😅.
But I went with naersk for local development.
| 05:07:10 |
vivekanandan_ks | I'm scratching the absolute basics now ❤️ I love certain design so far.
I only know python before this. 😅
