Sandboxing C++, Rust, Python Code?
5 projects | /r/rust | 9 Jul 2023

I am currently working on a code execution engine (also written in Rust) which uses nsjail for sandboxing and gnu time for measuring time and memory usage under the hood. You can run arbitrary code simply using a rest api and there is also a client library for Rust. It can already run C++, Rust and Python (and a few other languages) while allowing you to specify multiple source files, environment variables, command line arguments, standard input and resource limits (e.g. time, memory, maximum number of processes and whether network access is allowed or not). After running the program, the engine reports exit codes, outputs (stdout and stderr) and the amount of resources the program used.
