Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV)

This library should always compile with any combination of features on Rust 1.37.0.

Installing Rust

Rust can be installed using your package manager of choice or rustup.rs. The former way is considered more secure since it typically doesn't involve trust in the CA system. But you should be aware that the version of Rust shipped by your distribution might be out of date. Generally this isn't a problem for rust-tapyrus since we support much older versions (>=1.37.0) than the current stable one.

Building

The library can be built and tested using cargo:

git clone git@github.com:chaintope/rust-tapyrus.git
cd rust-tapyrus
cargo build

You can run tests with:

cargo test

Please refer to the cargo documentation for more detailed instructions.

Release Notes

See CHANGELOG.md.
