Cargo Metrics

This is a little tool that extracts metrics from your cargo project and outputs them in a format that GitLab can understand.

Why do you need this? It means that you can immediately see if an important metric has changed in merge requests.

Setup

You can install and run it locally using cargo.

cargo install cargo-metrics
cargo metrics

To integrate it into your GitLab CI, add a job to your .gitlab-ci.yml that looks like this:

yml metrics: image: rust stage: publish script: - cargo install cargo-metrics - cargo metrics > metrics.txt artifacts: reports: metrics: metrics.txt

What this will do is it will generate these metrics on every commit, and pass them onto GitLab. When merge requests are created, it is also run, and GitLab will show you which metrics have changed between the master branch and the merge request.
