How to Build
1. Clone the Repository
If you don’t already have the project on your local machine, you need to clone the repository from Git. Open a terminal and run:
git clone https://github.com/Scibun/Scimon.git
2. Setup Your Environment
Ensure that Rust and Cargo are installed and added to your system’s PATH. You can check this by running:
rustc --version
cargo --version
If Rust and Cargo are properly installed, these commands should return the version numbers.
3. Navigate to Your Project Directory
Open a terminal and navigate to the root directory of your Rust project. For example:
cd Scimon
If you just cloned the repository, navigate to the newly created directory:
cd Scimon
4. Build the Project
To build the project, simply run:
cargo build
This command compiles your project and places the output binaries in the target/debug
directory. You should see output similar to:
Compiling scimon v0.1.0 (/path/to/your/project)
Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 2.34s
5. Run the Project
To run the project after building it, use:
cargo run
This command builds and runs the project in one step.
6. Building for Release
If you want to build an optimized release version of your project, run:
cargo build --release
This command compiles your project with optimizations and places the output binaries in the target/release
directory. The output will be similar to:
Compiling scimon v0.1.0 (/path/to/your/project)
Finished release [optimized] target(s) in 2m 13s
Additional Commands
- Clean the Project: To remove the
target
directory and clean the project, run:cargo clean
- Run Tests: To run tests defined in your project, use:
cargo test
Summary
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Scibun/Scimon.git cd Scimon
- Setup your environment:
rustc --version cargo --version
- Navigate to your project directory (if not already there):
cd Scimon
- Build the project:
cargo build
- Run the project:
cargo run
- For a release build:
cargo build --release
By following these steps, you can successfully clone, build, and run your Scimon.
