Has anyone packaged Rust programs as nix packages?

1. himalaya

   1 48 4,738 9.5 Rust

   CLI to manage emails

   

   Take a look at Himalaya: https://github.com/soywod/himalaya

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. crane

   2 15 1,061 9.1 Nix

   A Nix library for building cargo projects. Never build twice thanks to incremental artifact caching.

   

   Take a look at Crane, though it is squarely aimed at non-beginners. If you want to submit whatever you're packaging to nixpkgs and not just for personal use, you can't use crane, though.

4. nixpkgs

   3 1,031 20,412 10.0 Nix

   Nix Packages collection & NixOS

   

   I have previously packaged an OSS Rust utility in a nixpkgs PR here. The upstream functions such as buildRustPackage are documented in the Nixpkgs manual here.
