xtask - Run tasks with cargo

This binary crate provides support for running useful tasks with cargo xtask <..>.

mangen

The mangen task which is enabled by the mangen cargo feature, builds ROFF manual pages for binary crates in this repository. It uses the clap_mangen crate to generate ROFF from the crate's argument types which implement the clap::CommandFactory trait, through the clap::Parser derive macro.

Furthmore, if the README.md of a crate contains an Examples heading, it includes it in the manual page.

$ cargo xtask mangen
    Finished `dev` profile [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.04s
     Running `target/debug/xtask mangen`
Generated the following manual pages:
/path/to/rust-vmm/vhost-device/target/dist/man/vhost-device-sound.1
/path/to/rust-vmm/vhost-device/target/dist/man/vhost-device-scmi.1

  • vhost-device-sound, enabled by the default feature vhost-device-sound.
    • It can further be fine-tuned with the features vhost-device-sound-pipewire and vhost-device-sound-alsa.
