Description

This layer aims to support Rust development in Spacemacs.

It supports Cargo, and has some basic auto-completion support through Racer, though Racer needs some additional configurations as described on their page.

Install

Layer

To use this configuration layer, add it to your ~/.spacemacs. You will need to add rust to the existing dotspacemacs-configuration-layers list in this file.

Cargo

Cargo is a project management command line tool for Rust. Installation instructions can be found on the main page of Cargo.

Auto-completion

To enable auto-completion, ensure that the auto-completion layer is enabled and add the following line to your dotspacemacs/user-init:

(setq-default rust-enable-racer t)

You have to install Racer to use this. For more information on the installation procedure, look here.
