rust-by-example VS monkey

I'm very much a Rust noob, and my overall programming knoweldge is a bit shallow but I don't think this is that helpful to understand Rust. I'd rather point people to The Rust Book and Rust by Example, which are beginner friendly and explain everything useful quite well.

Like Rust by Example? :D

Outra companhia bacana no começo é o Rust by Example.

isn't rust by example the tutorial? https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/rust-by-example/

If you haven't already, I'd recommend starting with Rust by Example, Rustlings, and the Command Line Applications Book. Perhaps even trying to solve Advent of Code challenges with Rust.

"The Rust Programming Language" (a.k.a. "the book") is a fantastic resource for getting started. I also like "Rust by Example".

This person did not read the license of the original library https://github.com/bouk/monkey/blob/master/LICENSE.md

I am a new gopher. I was looking into the Monkey Patching module and it is archived now. I was wondering if there is an alternative for that.

Here is an example of this in Go - but as he says, don't actually do this. https://github.com/bouk/monkey

I discovered this lib a few days ago. https://github.com/bouk/monkey it allows you to monkey patch entire functions, replacing them by whatever you want. Perfect for mocking. It's simple to use. The program is hard patching the code using assembly to replace the function address at runtime. You should not use this lib out of your tests since it's absolutely not safe. It's only compatible with linux and windows. But it works great!

> If you’re not interested in how it works and you just want to do monkey patching, then you can find the library here.

Also

> Wrapping it up in a nice library

> I took the above code and put it in an easy to use library. It supports 32 bit, reversing patches, and patching instance methods. I wrote a couple of examples and put those in the README.

Then in the README[1]:

> Make sure you read the notes at the bottom of the README if you intend to use this library.

Either the author is confused or has decided that he doesn't want to maintain an hack. Anyway license is pretty clear.

There was an HN thread[2] when it was released.

"This is as unsafe as it sounds and I don't recommend anyone do it outside of a testing environment."

WRT monkeypatch, again, this is a "global" thing and assuming you are talking about bouk's monkeypatch library the author makes the note that
