Not to be confused with the rust-analyzer of the Rust project!

rust-analyzer is a static analysis utility that is used for the automatic mentoring of exercise solutions of Exercism's Rust track. Please find general documentation about Exercism's language analyzers here.

• reverse-string
• gigasecond
• clock

The utility can be used on the local machine. It accepts two required parameters:

• --path (-p) - path to the solution directory.
• --slug (-s) - the slug of the exercise that is being analyzed.

For example:

rust-analyzer -p ~/solution-238382y7sds7fsadfasj23j/ -s reverse-string

In the context of the automatic mentoring the utility is invoked inside the Docker container via the bin/analyze.sh script.

You should have the latest stable version of Rust installed on you machine. Then from the project root run:

cargo build

To run the utility using Cargo execute the following command:

cargo run -- -s exercise_slug -p /path/to/the/solution/directory

To run tests use the following command:

cargo test

Simply run the following script to run the tests in docker:

./bin/run-tests-in-docker.sh
