Rust bindings for SDL2_ttf.

Overview

Rust-SDL2_ttf is a library for talking to the new SDL2_ttf library from Rust.

Rust-SDL2_ttf uses the MIT licence.

Requirements

• Rust-SDL2
• SDL2_ttf development libraries
• Rust master or nightly

Installation

Place the following into your project's Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
sdl2_ttf = "0.9"

Or, to use the newest rust-sdl2_ttf, reference the repository:

[dependencies.sdl2_ttf]
git = "https://github.com/andelf/rust-sdl2_ttf"

You can also just clone and build the library yourself:

git clone https://github.com/andelf/rust-sdl2_ttf
cd rust-sdl2_ttf
cargo build
# TODO: OR if you are using the mac framework version
rustc -L. --cfg mac_framework src/sdl2_ttf/lib.rs

If you're not using Cargo, you can compile the library manually:

git clone https://github.com/andelf/rust-sdl2_ttf
cd rust-sdl2_ttf
rustc src/sdl2_ttf/lib.rs

Demo

A simple demo that prints out a string given a font is included:

cargo run --example demo /path/to/font.(ttf|ttc|fon)
