cargo-bitbake

cargo bitbake is a Cargo subcommand that generates a BitBake recipe that uses meta-rust to build a Cargo based project for Yocto

Install it with Cargo:

$ cargo install --locked cargo-bitbake

In its default mode, cargo bitbake will write the recipe for the local crate:

$ cargo bitbake
Wrote: cargo-bitbake_0.1.0.bb

Dependencies

On Debian/Ubuntu, the package librust-cargo+openssl-dev is required (available via apt install).

Parameter Mapping

Yocto	Cargo
SRC_URI	each line in dependencies
SUMMARY	package.description
HOMEPAGE	package.homepage or package.repository
LICENSE	package.license or package.license-file
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM	package.license or package.license-file. See below

LIC_FILES_CHKSUM

LIC_FILES_CHKSUM is treated a bit specially. If the user specifies package.license-file then the filename is taken directly. If package.license is specified then it checks for the filename directly and falls back to checking LICENSE-{license}. If nothing can be found then you are expected to generate the md5sum yourself.

The license field supports any valid Cargo value and can be separated by / to specify multiple licenses.

API

API documentation is available at docs.rs.

Example output

$ cat cargo-bitbake_0.1.0.bb
inherit cargo_util
