Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Minimalist Rust formatter as an alternative to rustfmt?
Likewise, gofmt implementing what you argue for resulted in the creation of goformat. There's a limit to how much you can force people on these things and, more importantly, there are formatting decisions which are more than mere bikeshedding in the eyes of the programmers to the point where they consider it more productive to maintain the formatting by hand if that's what it takes.
-
Go is better than Rust (for networked server side applications meant for scale)?
I'm the guy who would only run rustfmt once every week or so, when my codebase was in a clean state where I could use git gui to cherry-pick the changes that were in line with my stubborn insistence on my own style and revert the rest. I'm also the guy who would have considered writing goformat if someone else didn't.
-
Why is rust so pedantic about code formatting and style?
Enough people disagree with that for goformat to exist.
-
rustfmt opt-in instead of opt-out
Same. I used to insist on cargo +nightly rustfmt and a massive stable of "I don't have a portrait-oriented monitor" rustfmt.toml tweaks which I'd only apply when I have a clean git gui on hand to cherry-pick away unwanted changes, but I've mellowed out and the rustfmt handling of things like assert! has evolved so, now, I just put use_small_heuristics = "Max" in my rustfmt.toml as an analogue to the people who choose goformat over gofmt.

Need a line-preserving gofmt tool
anyways, regardless of what I think, perhaps this library could help? Or at least be a good starting point to build your own: https://github.com/mbenkmann/goformat
-
What do you NOT like about Rust?
You'd prefer that people like me follow the road the Go ecosystem did and write goformat as a replacement for gofmt or just continue to hand-format everything?
-
Why most rustfmt options are still unstable?
Because Go syntax is ridiculously simple, there's not much room for opinion. And even considering that, there is already an alternative gofmt with custom options.

You can't do that because I hate you
The author provides very surface-level criticism of two Rust tools, but they don't look into why those choices were made.
With about five minutes of my time, I found out:
wrap_comments was introduced in 2019 [0]. There are bugs in the implementation (it breaks Markdown tables), so the option hasn't been marked as stable. Progress on the issue has been spotty.
--no-merge-sources is not trivial to re-implement [1]. The author has already explained why the flag no longer works -- Cargo integrated the command, but not all of the flags. This commit [2] explains why this functionality was removed in the first place.
Rust is open source, so the author of this blog post could improve the state of the software they care about by championing these issues. The --no-merge-sources error message even encourages you to open an issue, presumably so that the authors of Cargo can gauge the importance of certain flags/features.
You could even do something much simpler, like adding a comment to the related issues mentioning that you ran into these rough edges and that it made your life a little worse, or with a workaround that you found.
Alternatively, you can continue to write about how much free software sucks.

Let else will finally be formatted by rustfmt soon
The new style still supports single line let-else, and there is a configuration parameter to make it be on one line also for longer lines.
-
Is rustfmt abandoned? Will it ever format `let ... else` syntax?
It seems there is an issue about this dating all the way back from 2018 but yet it still hasn't been fixed.
-
Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (22/2023)!
However since 4179 recent versions should merge configuration files. Not sure what the details / specifics are but if just ignoring the file entirely is not good enough you might give it its own directory and rustfmt.toml file and see if that works.
-
Rustfmt refusing to work with certain functions.
Could this be be #3863 - Gives up on chains if any line is too long? It might not be, because I can't see a specific "line" that's too long to format, but there's more detail about the exact problem in the issue.

Rust Tips and Tricks #PartOne
Rustfmt is a tool that formats Rust code in compliance with style guidelines. Its name precisely reflects its purpose. To install rustfmt, you can run rustup component add rustfmt. Once installed, you can execute cargo fmt to format Rust code in your workspace. If you require further information, you can visit rustfmt’s GitHub repository.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (5/2023)!
Yes, some cases are not yet supported (https://github.com/rust-lang/rustfmt/issues/4914).

How do I stop RustFmt from turning this…
Just FYI, the let-else suggestions will only work until rustfmt settles on a format for it. So you may be surprised when this happens and it suddenly changes.
