cargo chef cook altering Cargo.toml and breaking projects in workspace about cargo-chef HOT 3 CLOSED

Sry, i now realized that cargo chef cook is also deleting the content of project files like shared/src/lib.rs and server/src/main.rs .. therefore my test project is currently broken ... i'll fix it later because i am unfortunately on my way now.

EDIT:

I restored the example and can confirm that the changes are happening i assumed above. After running cargo chef cook --recipe-path recipe.json not only the Cargo.toml files are altered (incorrectly) source files are also altered, either completely emptied out or weirdly replaced with different code.

after running the command client/src/lib.rs is just empty as is shared/src/lib.rs. In server/src/main.rs all source code is replaced simply with

fn main() {}

As additional information – and why i relate this to issue #4 – i am importing shared into the client and server with shared = { path = "../shared" }

This is by design, as discussed in #4 - cargo-chef is designed for usage in containers to leverage Docker layer caching, where changes to the source are considered ephemeral given that the container itself is ephemeral.

Some of the improvements discussed in #4 should hopefully avoid this surprise in the future.

Thanks for you answer i think that concludes my journey here :) ... i'll close this issue as it is redundant and almost a duplicate from issue #4 / #27
