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.

Run0 – systemd based alternative to sudo announced
There is also a write of sudo in Rust, which works more akin to the traditional sudo but memory-safe and with fewer bugs: https://www.memorysafety.org/blog/sudo-first-stable-release/
Source code: https://github.com/memorysafety/sudo-rs
And if you are running Debian 13 (trixie) or later, or Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble Numbat) or later, you can already install it using `apt install sudo-rs`.

It uses the setuid flag, just like sudo. The readme says

sidenote: why there is no python like syntax language TLA+ and ability to generate a partial implementation you could hook into (complete) from that model.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (27/2023)!
I need to do some tests with files operations, what's the best practice in regards to creating temporary files in tests ? I heard about tempfile but is there a more idiomatic way to do that ?

Testing the memory safe Rust implementation of Sudo/Su
The sudo-rs Cargo.toml [1] file seems very reasonable. This is the curse of being cross platform. The inclusion of https://github.com/Stebalien/tempfile as a dependency is responsible for the overwhelming majority of lines due to including *-sys crates for multiple OSs.

Adding automated tests to rost_gen
Eventually, I had to test reading of input file and generation of the html file. To do this, I would need to create test files for input and output for this scenario. However, this could cause problems unless I named all the test files differently as tests usually run in parallel. So, I decided to use the tempfile crate to create a temporary test directory for each test (where needed):
-
Is this safe? Keeping and opening temporary file.
Create a NamedTempFile with the tempfile crate.
-
How can I test this get_type_filepaths function?
Even better would be to create a tempdir and populate it during the test run. Try the tempfile crate.

Not the same commenter but you could use a tempfile

Blog post: Async Cancellation
That said though; there are a few solutions for the problem you're describing. One would be to have a "temp file" type which knows how to delete itself when dropped, but can manually be converted into a permanent file in the case of success. Crates like tempfile provide abstractions for this.
