# Parse `.proto` files Parse `.proto` file definitions, **not** the protobuf text format serialization. Files can be parsed using pure Rust parser (mod `pure`) or using the `protoc` command (mod `protoc`). This crate is not meant to be used directly, but rather through the `protobuf-codegen` crate. If you think this crate might be useful to you, please [consider creating an issue](https://github.com/stepancheg/rust-protobuf/issues/new), until that this crate is considered to have **no stable API**.
