CARGO-RUSTDOC(1) General Commands Manual CARGO-RUSTDOC(1)
NAME
cargo-rustdoc -- Build a package's documentation, using specified
custom flags
SYNOPSIS
cargo rustdoc [options] [-- args]
DESCRIPTION
The specified target for the current package (or package specified by
-p if provided) will be documented with the specified args being passed
to the final rustdoc invocation. Dependencies will not be documented as
part of this command. Note that rustdoc will still unconditionally
receive arguments such as -L, --extern, and --crate-type, and the
specified args will simply be added to the rustdoc invocation.
See <https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustdoc/index.html> for documentation on
rustdoc flags.
This command requires that only one target is being compiled when
additional arguments are provided. If more than one target is available
for the current package the filters of --lib, --bin, etc, must be used
to select which target is compiled.
To pass flags to all rustdoc processes spawned by Cargo, use the
RUSTDOCFLAGS environment variable
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html>
or the build.rustdocflags config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
OPTIONS
Documentation Options
--open
Open the docs in a browser after building them. This will use your
default browser unless you define another one in the BROWSER
environment variable or use the doc.browser
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#docbrowser>
configuration option.
Package Selection
By default, the package in the current working directory is selected.
The -p flag can be used to choose a different package in a workspace.
-p spec, --package spec
The package to document. See cargo-pkgid(1) for the SPEC format.
Target Selection
When no target selection options are given, cargo rustdoc will document
all binary and library targets of the selected package. The binary will
be skipped if its name is the same as the lib target. Binaries are
skipped if they have required-features that are missing.
Passing target selection flags will document only the specified
targets.
Note that --bin, --example, --test and --bench flags also support
common Unix glob patterns like *, ? and []. However, to avoid your
shell accidentally expanding glob patterns before Cargo handles them,
you must use single quotes or double quotes around each glob pattern.
--lib
Document the package's library.
--bin name
Document the specified binary. This flag may be specified multiple
times and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--bins
Document all binary targets.
--example name
Document the specified example. This flag may be specified multiple
times and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--examples
Document all example targets.
--test name
Document the specified integration test. This flag may be specified
multiple times and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--tests
Document all targets that have the test = true manifest flag set.
By default this includes the library and binaries built as
unittests, and integration tests. Be aware that this will also
build any required dependencies, so the lib target may be built
twice (once as a unittest, and once as a dependency for binaries,
integration tests, etc.). Targets may be enabled or disabled by
setting the test flag in the manifest settings for the target.
--bench name
Document the specified benchmark. This flag may be specified
multiple times and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--benches
Document all targets that have the bench = true manifest flag set.
By default this includes the library and binaries built as
benchmarks, and bench targets. Be aware that this will also build
any required dependencies, so the lib target may be built twice
(once as a benchmark, and once as a dependency for binaries,
benchmarks, etc.). Targets may be enabled or disabled by setting
the bench flag in the manifest settings for the target.
--all-targets
Document all targets. This is equivalent to specifying --lib --bins
--tests --benches --examples.
Feature Selection
The feature flags allow you to control which features are enabled. When
no feature options are given, the default feature is activated for
every selected package.
See the features documentation
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html#command-line-feature-options>
for more details.
-F features, --features features
Space or comma separated list of features to activate. Features of
workspace members may be enabled with package-name/feature-name
syntax. This flag may be specified multiple times, which enables
all specified features.
--all-features
Activate all available features of all selected packages.
--no-default-features
Do not activate the default feature of the selected packages.
Compilation Options
--target triple
Document for the given architecture. The default is the host
architecture. The general format of the triple is
<arch><sub>-<vendor>-<sys>-<abi>. Run rustc --print target-list for
a list of supported targets. This flag may be specified multiple
times.
This may also be specified with the build.target config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
Note that specifying this flag makes Cargo run in a different mode
where the target artifacts are placed in a separate directory. See
the build cache
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/build-cache.html>
documentation for more details.
-r, --release
Document optimized artifacts with the release profile. See also the
--profile option for choosing a specific profile by name.
--profile name
Document with the given profile. See the reference
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/profiles.html> for more
details on profiles.
--timings=fmts
Output information how long each compilation takes, and track
concurrency information over time. Accepts an optional
comma-separated list of output formats; --timings without an
argument will default to --timings=html. Specifying an output
format (rather than the default) is unstable and requires
-Zunstable-options. Valid output formats:
o html (unstable, requires -Zunstable-options): Write a
human-readable file cargo-timing.html to the
target/cargo-timings directory with a report of the
compilation. Also write a report to the same directory with a
timestamp in the filename if you want to look at older runs.
HTML output is suitable for human consumption only, and does
not provide machine-readable timing data.
o json (unstable, requires -Zunstable-options): Emit
machine-readable JSON information about timing information.
Output Options
--target-dir directory
Directory for all generated artifacts and intermediate files. May
also be specified with the CARGO_TARGET_DIR environment variable,
or the build.target-dir config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Defaults
to target in the root of the workspace.
Display Options
-v, --verbose
Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose"
output which includes extra output such as dependency warnings and
build script output. May also be specified with the term.verbose
config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
-q, --quiet
Do not print cargo log messages. May also be specified with the
term.quiet config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
--color when
Control when colored output is used. Valid values:
o auto (default): Automatically detect if color support is
available on the terminal.
o always: Always display colors.
o never: Never display colors.
May also be specified with the term.color config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
--message-format fmt
The output format for diagnostic messages. Can be specified
multiple times and consists of comma-separated values. Valid
values:
o human (default): Display in a human-readable text format.
Conflicts with short and json.
o short: Emit shorter, human-readable text messages. Conflicts
with human and json.
o json: Emit JSON messages to stdout. See the reference
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/external-tools.html#json-messages>
for more details. Conflicts with human and short.
o json-diagnostic-short: Ensure the rendered field of JSON
messages contains the "short" rendering from rustc. Cannot be
used with human or short.
o json-diagnostic-rendered-ansi: Ensure the rendered field of
JSON messages contains embedded ANSI color codes for respecting
rustc's default color scheme. Cannot be used with human or
short.
o json-render-diagnostics: Instruct Cargo to not include rustc
diagnostics in JSON messages printed, but instead Cargo itself
should render the JSON diagnostics coming from rustc. Cargo's
own JSON diagnostics and others coming from rustc are still
emitted. Cannot be used with human or short.
Manifest Options
--manifest-path path
Path to the Cargo.toml file. By default, Cargo searches for the
Cargo.toml file in the current directory or any parent directory.
--ignore-rust-version
Ignore rust-version specification in packages.
--locked
Asserts that the exact same dependencies and versions are used as
when the existing Cargo.lock file was originally generated. Cargo
will exit with an error when either of the following scenarios
arises:
o The lock file is missing.
o Cargo attempted to change the lock file due to a different
dependency resolution.
It may be used in environments where deterministic builds are
desired, such as in CI pipelines.
--offline
Prevents Cargo from accessing the network for any reason. Without
this flag, Cargo will stop with an error if it needs to access the
network and the network is not available. With this flag, Cargo
will attempt to proceed without the network if possible.
Beware that this may result in different dependency resolution than
online mode. Cargo will restrict itself to crates that are
downloaded locally, even if there might be a newer version as
indicated in the local copy of the index. See the cargo-fetch(1)
command to download dependencies before going offline.
May also be specified with the net.offline config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
--frozen
Equivalent to specifying both --locked and --offline.
--lockfile-path PATH
Changes the path of the lockfile from the default
(<workspace_root>/Cargo.lock) to PATH. PATH must end with
Cargo.lock (e.g. --lockfile-path
/tmp/temporary-lockfile/Cargo.lock). Note that providing
--lockfile-path will ignore existing lockfile at the default path,
and instead will either use the lockfile from PATH, or write a new
lockfile into the provided PATH if it doesn't exist. This flag can
be used to run most commands in read-only directories, writing
lockfile into the provided PATH.
This option is only available on the nightly channel
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/appendix-07-nightly-rust.html> and
requires the -Z unstable-options flag to enable (see #14421
<https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/14421>).
Common Options
+toolchain
If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to
cargo begins with +, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain
name (such as +stable or +nightly). See the rustup documentation
<https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html> for more
information about how toolchain overrides work.
--config KEY=VALUE or PATH
Overrides a Cargo configuration value. The argument should be in
TOML syntax of KEY=VALUE, or provided as a path to an extra
configuration file. This flag may be specified multiple times. See
the command-line overrides section
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#command-line-overrides>
for more information.
-C PATH
Changes the current working directory before executing any
specified operations. This affects things like where cargo looks by
default for the project manifest (Cargo.toml), as well as the
directories searched for discovering .cargo/config.toml, for
example. This option must appear before the command name, for
example cargo -C path/to/my-project build.
This option is only available on the nightly channel
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/appendix-07-nightly-rust.html> and
requires the -Z unstable-options flag to enable (see #10098
<https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/10098>).
-h, --help
Prints help information.
-Z flag
Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run cargo -Z help for
details.
Miscellaneous Options
-j N, --jobs N
Number of parallel jobs to run. May also be specified with the
build.jobs config value
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Defaults
to the number of logical CPUs. If negative, it sets the maximum
number of parallel jobs to the number of logical CPUs plus provided
value. If a string default is provided, it sets the value back to
defaults. Should not be 0.
--keep-going
Build as many crates in the dependency graph as possible, rather
than aborting the build on the first one that fails to build.
For example if the current package depends on dependencies fails
and works, one of which fails to build, cargo rustdoc -j1 may or
may not build the one that succeeds (depending on which one of the
two builds Cargo picked to run first), whereas cargo rustdoc -j1
--keep-going would definitely run both builds, even if the one run
first fails.
--output-format
The output type for the documentation emitted. Valid values:
o html (default): Emit the documentation in HTML format.
o json: Emit the documentation in the experimental JSON format
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/nightly-rustc/rustdoc_json_types>.
This option is only available on the nightly channel
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/appendix-07-nightly-rust.html> and
requires the -Z unstable-options flag to enable.
ENVIRONMENT
See the reference
<https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html>
for details on environment variables that Cargo reads.
EXIT STATUS
o 0: Cargo succeeded.
o 101: Cargo failed to complete.
EXAMPLES
1. Build documentation with custom CSS included from a given file:
cargo rustdoc --lib -- --extend-css extra.css
