cargo lipo

Provides a cargo lipo subcommand which automatically creates a universal library for use with your iOS application.

Usage

From anywhere you would usually run cargo you can now run cargo lipo or cargo lipo --release to create a universal library for ios, which can be found in $target/universal/{release|debug}/$lib_name.a.

Make sure you have a library target in your Cargo.toml with a crate type of staticlib:

toml [lib] name = "..." crate-type = ["staticlib"]

Installation

Install cargo lipo with cargo install cargo-lipo. cargo lipo can be build with rust 1.8 and later.

You also need a rust compiler which can compile for the iOS targets. If you use rustup all you should have to do is

sh rustup target add aarch64-apple-ios rustup target add armv7-apple-ios rustup target add i386-apple-ios rustup target add x86_64-apple-ios

Note: This should work on stable starting with the 1.8 release.

Alternatively you can build a rust compiler with iOS support yourself.

Troubleshooting

Cargo fails with error: can't find crate for `std`: Your rust compiler most likely does not support cross-compiling to iOS.
