Rust
Rust is a language that I’ve been in love with for ages.
It’s also one of the most frustrating languages I’ve ever used. This is because I’ve never written enough rust to actually be good at it.
It also has the best documentation of any language.
Swift/iOS Interop
Follow this article
Add the iOS architectures to rustup
, as well as the tools for building universal iOS binaries (cargo-lipo
) and C headers from rust (cbindgen
).
rustup target add aarch64-apple-ios armv7-apple-ios armv7s-apple-ios x86_64-apple-ios i386-apple-ios
cargo install cargo-lipo
cargo install cbindgen
Serializing json in rust.
Follow this guide using serde.
Essentially:
Add to Cargo.toml
‘s [Dependencies]
section:
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }
serde_json = "1.0"
Make your struct derive Serialize
, and pass it to serde_json::to_string()
#[derive(Serialize)]
struct Thing {
x: i32
}
fn main() {
let thing = Thing { a: 1 }
println!("{}", serde_json::to_string(&thing).unwrap());
}
