devel/cxx-rust-cssparser (HEADS UP rust hackers)

Here is the first c++/rust cmake port. If you want to build it you need: devel/corrosion and devel/cxxbridge-cmd from ports@. Of course this is a dependency for KDE Plasma 6.7. KDE started to accept rust code in KDE code base and there a more ports will use it. First of all, I'd like to explain how this works – though this only applies to ONE Cargo dependency in a CMake project. I think we can give this some further thought should we encounter this problem. 1.) First, use devel/cargo to point to the toml file and generate ".include "crates.inc"". MODCARGO_CARGOTOML = ${WRKSRC}/rust/Cargo.toml 2.) We need corrosion BUILD_DEPENDS = devel/corrosion CONFIGURE_ARGS += -DINSTALLED_CXXBRIDGE=${LOCALBASE}/bin/cxxbridge-cmd 3.) Here’s the "hack" we should be discussing. I faked a new config.toml which points to your ${MODCARGO_VENDOR_DIR} (aka. Where are your crates.inc). This is was a quick and "not an rust user" solution https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/source-replacement.html What do you think? I think this pattern could work for other cmake/c++/rust ports too. CONFIGURE_ENV += CARGO_HOME=${WRKDIR}/cargo-home MAKE_ENV += CARGO_HOME=${WRKDIR}/cargo-home pre-configure: mkdir -p ${WRKDIR}/cargo-home printf '%s\n' \ '[source.crates-io]' \ 'replace-with = "modcargo"' \ '[source.modcargo]' \ 'directory = "${MODCARGO_VENDOR_DIR}"' \ '[net]' \ 'offline = true' \ > ${WRKDIR}/cargo-home/config.toml The result certainly works without any problems.
