Install a CLI in a project (not globally)

1. nix

   1 410 14,266 10.0 C++

   Nix, the purely functional package manager

   

   Excuse me sir, do you have a moment to talk about our lord and savior, Nix?

2. InfluxDB

   www.influxdata.com featured

   InfluxDB – Built for High-Performance Time Series Workloads. InfluxDB 3 OSS is now GA. Transform, enrich, and act on time series data directly in the database. Automate critical tasks and eliminate the need to move data externally. Download now.

   

3. cross

   2 120 7,336 7.9 Rust

   “Zero setup” cross compilation and “cross testing” of Rust crates

   

   cargo install has no facility for per-project installation, but Rust binaries are statically linked aside from the C libraries they depend on, so it should work if you compilie the sqlx-cli binary against the oldest glibc you want to support (cross can help there) and then copy it to the other development machines through any means desired.)

4. cargo-xtask

   3 27 982 5.3

   

5. sqlx

   4 151 14,748 9.2 Rust

   🧰 The Rust SQL Toolkit. An async, pure Rust SQL crate featuring compile-time checked queries without a DSL. Supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite. (by launchbadge)

   

   It doesn't allow you to install third-party binaries, but it allows you to make your own binaries runnable with something similar to npx. And, as sqlx-cli is also available as a library, you can make an xtask which just runs that.

6. cargo-xtask-sqlx-example

   5 1 3 0.9 Rust

   

7. cargo-binstall

   6 24 1,960 9.4 Rust

   Binary installation for rust projects

   

   You can use cargo-binstall --install-path to install binaries to custom locations.
