Project idea: port markdownlint to Rust
Either https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust or https://github.com/dtolnay/serde-yaml for parsing the YAML config file that markdownlint uses

Introduction to Rust generics [1/2]: Traits
This is especially useful for data deserialization: Just by implementing the Serialize and Deserialize traits from the serde crate, the (almost) universally used serialization library in the Rust world, we can then serialize and deserialize our types to a lot of data formats: JSON, YAML, TOML, BSON and so on...

Weird error only on android: "this struct takes 3 generic arguments but 2 generic arguments were supplied" for serde_json
FYI, I opened pull requests for serde_json and serde_yaml to explicitly enable indexmap/std, and dtolnay already merged and published them both!
-
anyone using rust in production? what do you do?
Pair that with Serde for serialization/deserialization (JSON, TOML, YAML, CSV/TSV, XML, URL query strings, etc.), Figment for configuration, and ignore for filesystem traversal with blacklist support, and Rust is a real joy for writing CLI utilities.

Walking a Yaml to file to Build an abstract syntax tree
I see that are packages like https://github.com/dtolnay/serde-yaml and the parser where serde is built on that give a Yaml representation, but I don't see any way to walk through it in a generic way with a Visitor.

Getting Started with Hippo - a WebAssembly PaaS (Part 3)
With the understanding we’ve built of the runtime environment, I feel ready to start porting a simple CLI I’ve built in Rust to run in WebAssembly as a service hosted in Hippo. [The project we’ll start with is J2Y(https://github.com/smurawski/j2y/tree/1-getting-started) – which is a little Rust application that converts JSON to YAML or YAML to JSON. We’ll adapt this to, depending on the target, either be a CLI or a WebAssembly binary to run in WAGI. The heavy lifting of the conversion is done by the serde-json and the serde-yaml crates.

CLI Contexts
I recently came across this question (and associated answer) on the clap repository. The answer given is a good one. But I wanted to expand with my own findings and practices, which spurred the motivation for this post.

Getting Started with CLI tools in Rust using Clap
We can also use tuple-like struct syntax and named-field struct syntax for enum variants within our enum; this is because unlike in other OOP languages, Rust enums are actually sum types. You can read more about how powerful Rust enums are in another article we wrote here. You can have optional arguments by simply wrapping the types in Option, but if you want to add a flag to a command you can use bool, since clap recognises that flags are either there or not there. Let's have a look at what this might look like:

Flow Updater JSON Creator
I began by developing a wrapper for the CurseForge API, which turned out to be a lengthy and challenging process but constituted the bulk of the work. Next, I coded the CLI, which was relatively straightforward. Instead of using the clap crate, a Rust tool for generating CLIs, I opted for the following line of code:
-
netcrab: a networking tool
By this time I had already gotten tired of parsing arguments by myself and had looked for something to help with that. I found a really dang good argument parsing library called clap. What makes it so cool is it's largely declarative for common uses. You simply mark up a struct with attributes, and the parser automatically generates the usage and all the argument parsing code.

I made an alternative --help renderer for clap based applications
Is this just referring to wrapping based on the terminal width? That is supported with the wrap_help feature though I have been considering making it a default feature.

CLI, use Clap. If you want to get fancy, use Tui.

As our CLI is getting more complex, we'll use the clap crate to parse the command line arguments.
