Code review wanted: munin-plugin, a rust library

1. munin-plugin

   1 1 0 0.0 Rust

   Rust library to ease writing of munin plugins

   if you have a few minutes, I would love a review of my first Rust library, munin-plugin. I'm relatively new to Rust, coming from a mixed background that contains lots of Shell, Python, Ruby and Java, and now I try my luck in Rust (and like it).

3. munin-if1sec

   2 1 0 0.0 Rust

   Munin interface graph plugin, in rust

   If you want to see more examples on how it can be used, my GitHub contains munin-if1sec, munin-cpu1sec and a plain simple load plugin (also, the load plugin is main part of examples in munin-plugin).

4. munin-cpu1sec

   3 1 0 2.6 Rust

   Munin CPU graphs, 1second resolution, in Rust

   If you want to see more examples on how it can be used, my GitHub contains munin-if1sec, munin-cpu1sec and a plain simple load plugin (also, the load plugin is main part of examples in munin-plugin).

5. munin-load

   4 1 0 1.8 Rust

   Munin plugin for load, Rust

   If you want to see more examples on how it can be used, my GitHub contains munin-if1sec, munin-cpu1sec and a plain simple load plugin (also, the load plugin is main part of examples in munin-plugin).

6. Munin

   5 25 2,006 6.2 Perl

   Main repository for munin master / node / plugins

   

   A bit of background, which may make understanding my choices in this lib easier: Munin is a resource monitoring tool using rrdtool, usually run in a Server/Client Setup. The client accepts plugins which are just executables in a directory. Usually written in a scripting language, but it actually doesn't matter. Data is fetched every 5 minutes, plugins are first run with a config argument to spit out a munin graph config, followed by a run without arguments to present data. To support higher resolutions than just "every 5 minutes", graph config can contain config to tell munin one collects it every second. Then the fetching part needs to run as a daemon, writing a cache somewhere which gets output when munin wants the data.

7. blend

   6 1 126 3.2 Rust

   A parser and runtime for Blender's .blend files. (by lukebitts)

   

   This sounds really interesting here's a quick few things after skimming the repo: - There are no examples; here is the usual thing we find in these repos - LGPL3 is not the common license, if you "don't care" and would like to "fit in" "they" use Apache2+MIT generally, within the Rust community - How would I build or get started? Usually this is also listed in the README and for a project like this I would recommend that - a link to "munin" which I am not familiar with? - There are a few identifiers without proper camel casing, ex dirtyconfig

8. docs.rs

   7 143 1,015 9.5 Rust

   crates.io documentation generator

   

   The README definitely needs more content. Right now I link to docs.rs from it, and in there I do have a bunch of examples.
