Building

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.
