Including a cargo command as a dev dependency
As someone else said just is good for that job, or you could implement an xtask helper for these things and setup a suitable development environment with that: https://github.com/matklad/cargo-xtask/

Going beyond build.rs: introducing cargo-px
Well tools like cornucopia, prisma-rust-client, protoc-gen-tonic, they don't generate in build.rs, but instead provide either a cli to be called ahead of time, or provide a library that can be called by your own binary (which should generally follow the xtask pattern)

Best way to include a utility command for my crate?
If I understand, this is a tool for when working on the project itself? Akin to a helper script? You could go the cargo install route as already pointed out but there is also the xtask convention.

We have getrandom at home
For simple cli apps for internal use, such as cargo-xtasks, I prefer pico_args due to its fast compile times.

Rust for Web Development | An Honest Evaluation
For developer-oriented stuff, there's tools like xshell and cargo-xtask. For operator tasks that need to run in a deployed environment, it's not usually a big lift to add CLI subcommands to your binary. It's certainly more boilerplate and inertia than doing stuff in a live REPL, though, and sometimes difficult to recommend for truly one-off situations.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (49/2023)!
I like config.rs, but I am struggling to overwrite config profiles with environment variables. The desired config is mixed, like .toml

Is there a pydantic.BaseSettings equivalent in rust?
Consider config crate. It could be like:
-
How do you store and pass credentials?
I've been using Config most of the time. I also use once_cell to make it a static variable.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here! (28/2022)!
Anyone know of a library like https://github.com/netflix/go-env but for rust? I found https://github.com/mehcode/config-rs but it's just not as simple...
-
How do you merge config in Rust with a default?
I was just in that space today. The config crate has an example you might find useful: https://github.com/mehcode/config-rs/tree/master/examples/hierarchical-env

How it differs from config?

Best way to set environment for Rust App
Checking an environment variable is very easy with std::env::var or similar. If you have other bits of configuration that also change—which is typical; things like DB connection strings—you may consider a more full-featured solution like https://docs.rs/config/0.10.1/config/ (pay particular attention to this example, which seems to be very close to what you want: https://github.com/mehcode/config-rs/blob/master/examples/hierarchical-env/src/settings.rs ).

Good way to set up default configurations
It's unfortunate, it looks like there was an attempt to get someone else to maintain it here, but no one ended up really stepping up to the plate.
