registry-backup

A command line utility for downloading all .crate files hosted by a Cargo registry server.

Use cases:

Backup: retrieve a registry server's files for backup storage
Export: pull the files so you can host them at another registry server

Example Usage:

Specify the registry index either as a local path (--index-path)...

$ git clone https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index.git
$ RUST_LOG=info registry-backup \
    --index-path crates.io-index \
    --output-path crates.io-crate-files \
    --requests-per-second 10

...or as an --index-url instead:

$ RUST_LOG=info registry-backup \
    --index-url ssh://git@ssh.shipyard.rs/shipyard-rs/crate-index.git \
    --output-path shipyard-rs-crate-files \
    --auth-token ${AUTH_TOKEN} # for private registry, need auth

Install

$ cargo install registry-backup --git https://git.shipyard.rs/jstrong/registry-backup.git

Runtime Options

$ ./target/release/registry-backup --help

{{ cli_menu }}

Configuration File

A toml configuration file may be used instead of command line flags. A sample file (config.toml.sample) is included. From the example file:

{{ config_sample }}

Build From Source

$ git clone https://git.shipyard.rs/jstrong/registry-backup.git
$ cd registry-backup
$ just release-build # alternatively, cargo build --bin registry-backup --release
# ./target/release/registry-backup --help
# cp target/release/registry-backup ~/.cargo/bin/

Running Tests

$ just test # alternatively, cargo test

Justfile

The repository includes a justfile with functionality for building, testing, etc.

Included commands:

$ just --list

{{ just_commands }}

The commands that mirror cargo commands (e.g. just test) are included for the purpose of convenience, so that various options (e.g. RUSTFLAGS='-C target-cpu=native) can be included without typing them out each time.

Generating `README.md`

This file is generated using a template (doc/README.tera.md) rendered using updated outputs of the CLI menu, config sample, and other values.

This version of README.md was generated at {{ generation_time }} based on git commit {{ git_commit }}.

To (re-)generate the README.md file, use the justfile command:

$ just generate-readme
