Library for retrieving and interacting with the crates.io registry git-based index.
The index contains metadata for all Rust libraires and programs published on crates.io: their verisons, dependencies, and feature flags.
```rust let index = cratesindex::Index::newcargo_default()?;
for cratereleases in index.crates() { let _ = cratereleases.mostrecentversion(); // newest version let crateversion = cratereleases.highestversion(); // max version by semver println!("crate name: {}", crateversion.name()); println!("crate version: {}", crate_version.version()); } ```
It should work without any code changes. Only the git2 and toml dependencies were updated.
BareIndex and BareIndexRepo have become the Index.Index::new_cargo_default()? is the preferred way of accessing the index. Use with_path() to clone to a different directory.retrieve() or exists(). It's always retrieved and always exists.retrieve_or_update() is just update().highest_version() returns crate metadata rather than just the version number. Call highest_version().version().parse() to get semver::Version.crate_index_paths(), because there are no files any more. Use crate_ to get individual crates.Licensed under version 2 of the Apache License
