To build cmsis-pack-manager locally, Install a stable rust compiler. See
https://rustup.rs/ for details on installing rustup, the Rust toolchain
updater. Afterwards, run rustup toolchain install to get the Rust toolchain
and build system for building cmsis-pack-manager.
After installing the rust toolchain and downloading a stable compiler, run
pip wheel . from the root of this repo to generate a binary wheel (.whl
file). Alternatively you can run pip install maturin cffi and then
maturin build for a process closer to the way we build releases.
For testing purposes, there is a CLI written in Rust within the rust
workspace as the package cmsis-cli. For example From the rust
directory, cargo run -p cmsis-cli -- update builds this testing
CLI and runs the update command, for example.
