Some useful third-party tools based Cargo.
WARNING: Deprecated, with cargo#317, cargo-edit is using local registry index rather HTTP API, there is no need to use dargo.
Latest released: cargo install -f dargo
Latest branched: cargo install -f dargo --git https://github.com/DCjanus/dargo.git
PS: Recommend to use cargo-update to keep all tools up to date.
Upgrade version requirements in Cargo.toml to latest, more usage: dargo upgrade -h.
Version requirements like 1.2.3, 0.1.2, always updated to the latest version.
Version requirements like ^1.2.3, ~2.0.1, =0.3.0, 1.2, 1.*, >0.1.0 would not be upgraded (unless with --force). If you want to exclude some dependencies from dargo upgrade, those kinds of version requirements could be used.
Add dependencies to your Cargo.toml, more usage: dargo add -h.
Without version specified like dargo add failure libc, add latest version dependencies to Cargo.toml.
With version requirement like dargo add futures-preview@>=0.3.0-alpha.12 libc@^1.0.1, add dependencies with specified version requirement.
Remove dependencies from your Cargo.toml, more usage: dargo rm -h.
dargo upgradeanddargo addwould not update local registry index, unless run with flag--update.
There are some useful CLI tools for Rust developers, for example, cargo-edit, cargo-outdated.
They are fabulous, but for some reason, some designs are not suitable for my needs, for example: for compile speed, cargo-edit doesn't rely on cargo, and query latest version of crate via HTTP API, which is so slow in China. So I have to write dargo for myself and query latest version from local registry index.
