Github Workflow Rust CLI

An official dev template that configures your cli's entire github workflow in rust

How to use

After installing the dt cli enter the root folder of your cli, example:

cd projects/cli-example

Then use this template through the dt cli:

dt new -t github-workflow-rust-cli

TODO

  • Go to your repository configuration and create a secret in actions with the name TOKEN_GITHUB
  • In .github/workflows/create_new_tag.yml replace the - master in line 5 column 7 by - {your-default-branch-name} (replace your-default-branch-name by your default branch name)
  • In .github/workflows/release.yml in line 33 column 16 replace dt by the bin name of your cli, possibly it is the name of the name field in Cargo.toml but if you are in doubt run cargo build go to the target/debug folder and see the name of the executable that is there

Results

  • Every time there is a new push in your default branch a new tag with a new version will be created, then shortly after that a pipeline called Release will be triggered, which will build your project, create a new release and add the file binary in zip there.
  • Every time a pull request is opened, and the change files have Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock, **.rs a testing process will be run, this includes the commands: cargo fmt -- --check, cargo check, cargo clippy. you can also open the file .github/workflows/ci.yml in line 39 column 11 and add a new version of rust, and then it will run all that in all the versions that are there!
