"In the same vein of my earlier post on [swift2nix]({% link "
"_articles/2020-10-05-swift2nix-run-swift-inside-nix-builds.md %}), I was "
"able to quickly prototype a Rust and Cargo variation of it: "
"[cargo2nix](https://git.euandreh.xyz/cargo2nix/about/)."

"The initial prototype is even smaller than swift2nix: it has only [37 lines "
"of "
"code](https://git.euandreh.xyz/cargo2nix/tree/default.nix?id=472dde8898296c8b6cffcbd10b3b2c3ba195846d)."

"That `cargo test` part on line 20 is what I have been fighting with every "
"\"\\*2nix\" available for Rust out there. I don't want to bash any of them. "
"All I want is to have full control of what Cargo commands to run, and the "
"\"*2nix\" tool should only setup the environment for me. Let me drive Cargo "
"myself, no need to parameterize how the tool runs it for me, or even "
"replicate its internal behaviour by calling the Rust compiler directly."

"Sure it doesn't support private registries or Git dependencies, but how much"
" bigger does it has to be to support them? Also, it doesn't support those "
"**yet**, there's no reason it can't be extended. I just haven't needed it "
"yet, so I haven't added. Patches welcome."

"The layout of the `vendor/` directory is more explicit and public then what "
"swift2nix does: it is whatever the command `cargo vendor` returns. However I"
" haven't checked if the shape of the `.cargo-checksum.json` is specified, or"
" internal to Cargo."
