A simple Rust CLI for simple Rust programs.
It's easiest to install by cargo.
cargo install kitchen-cli
Kitchen is a simple Rust CLI tool that aims to automate some of the tasks needed to run single file Rust applications built by cargo new. Right now, there are two commands.
kitchen-cli cleanup {foldername}replaces your entire folder with{foldername}.rs, with the contents of thesrc/main.rs.kitchen-cli create {filename}turns the{filename.rs}back into the project!
As a novice in the Rust programming language, I find myself learning primarily through short programming problems. These solutions can almost always fit on a single file, so what choices are there to simply run a single rust file?
rustc and cargo run is a good option but it fails when it using dependencies such as the random module, giving an unresolved import error when you're not on main.rs.
cargo new is the default, but they make an entire folder to store a single file! It is overkill when you just want to store the code once you finish. Deleting and renaming files to solve this over and over again gets really annoying.
Maybe there's a better way I just didn't see, making this entire package obsolete. Nonetheless, a CLI tool is pretty fun to make.
