libpostal-sys

Low-level Rust bindings for the excellent address-parsing library libpostal. Several other Rust wrappers for this library exist. This one includes the following features, which may or may not be available elsewhere:

• Bundled libpostal source code.
• Support for building static Rust binaries.
• Support for thread-safe initialization of libpostal, using provided global locks.
• Packing as a low-level libpostal-sys crate that can be shared between one or more high-level crates, as per standard Rust conventions.
• Support from cross-compiling from x86_64 Macs to aarch64 (Apple Silicon).

Development notes

```sh

Check out libpostal source code as a git submodule.

git submodule update --init

Update our Rust API bindings manually.

bindgen wrapper.h -o src/bindings.rs ```
