Rust CI/CD Skill

GitHub Actions — Standard CI

name: CI
on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
  pull_request:

env:
  CARGO_TERM_COLOR: always
  RUSTFLAGS: "-Dwarnings"

jobs:
  check:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable
        with:
          components: rustfmt, clippy
      - uses: Swatinem/rust-cache@v2

      - name: Format
        run: cargo fmt --all -- --check

      - name: Clippy
        run: cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features

      - name: Test
        run: cargo test --all-features

      - name: Doc
        run: cargo doc --no-deps --all-features
        env:
          RUSTDOCFLAGS: "-Dwarnings"

  msrv:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: dtolnay/rust-toolchain@master
        with:
          toolchain: "1.85"
      - run: cargo check --all-features

Release Workflow (cargo-dist)

name: Release
on:
  push:
    tags: ["v*"]

jobs:
  release:
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    strategy:
      matrix:
        include:
          - os: ubuntu-latest
            target: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
          - os: macos-latest
            target: aarch64-apple-darwin
          - os: windows-latest
            target: x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable
        with:
          targets: ${{ matrix.target }}
      - run: cargo build --release --target ${{ matrix.target }}
      - uses: softprops/action-gh-release@v2
        with:
          files: target/${{ matrix.target }}/release/my-binary*

Local CI Checks (pre-push)

#!/bin/bash
# scripts/ci-local.sh
set -euo pipefail

echo "==> Format check"
cargo fmt --all -- --check

echo "==> Clippy"
cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings

echo "==> Tests"
cargo test --all-features

echo "==> Doc build"
RUSTDOCFLAGS="-Dwarnings" cargo doc --no-deps --all-features

echo "All checks passed!"

Clippy Configuration

# clippy.toml
too-many-arguments-threshold = 7
type-complexity-threshold = 300

// In lib.rs or main.rs
#![warn(clippy::pedantic)]
#![allow(clippy::module_name_repetitions)]
#![allow(clippy::must_use_candidate)]

Cross-Compilation Targets

Target	Use Case
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu	Standard Linux
x86_64-unknown-linux-musl	Static Linux binary
aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu	ARM64 Linux
aarch64-apple-darwin	macOS Apple Silicon
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc	Windows
wasm32-unknown-unknown	WebAssembly
thumbv7em-none-eabihf	ARM Cortex-M (embedded)

Use cross for easy cross-compilation: cross build --target aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
