Introducing Crane: Composable and Cacheable Builds with Cargo and Nix

• crane

  12 756 9.2 Nix

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

I'm yet to try it out, but from the blog post, the README and the source it appears that Crane builds all dependencies in one derivation (separately from the main crate). This means that if a dependency gets added, removed or changed, all dependencies of a crate will be rebuilt. This is in contrast with https://github.com/kolloch/crate2nix, which does build every dependency in a separate package, thus you don't need to rebuild other dependencies if you only change a small part of the tree.
