What else did they write? - What alternatives are there for this crate? - How old is this crate? - What versions are there? When did they come out? - What are the download numbers over time? - Should I use this crate? - How mature is it? ### Installation Cargo installed already? `cargo install chit`. If not... find out [how to install cargo!](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html) #### Nix package manager `nix-env -iA nixpkgs.chit` ### Use `chit rocket` OR `chit --crate=rocket` `chit versions --crate=hex-buffer-serde` `chit owners --crate=hex-buffer-serde` `chit repo --crate=chit` ## Roadmap: (Would love Pull requests that build towards these objectives) - [ ] Tests - [x] Versions - [x] Owners - [ ] Crate details - [x] Add a CI pipeline that runs the tests - [x] Make a logo for chit - [x] Add another command e.g. `chit repo` which might get meta data like stars and collaborator numbers etc - [ ] Change error handling to use result types - [ ] Use some more functional programming techniques to cut the code size down - [ ] distribute through brew, apt-get, etc... - [ ] expand the repository details returned by the `repo` command ## Contributors See the [fantastic people](https://github.com/peterheesterman/chit/graphs/contributors) who have made chit. ## License This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the [LICENSE.md](./LICENSE.md) file for details
