cargo tauri build

Command 'cargo' not found, but can be installed with: sudo snap install rustup # version 1.27.1, or sudo apt install cargo # version 1.75.0+dfsg0ubuntu1~bpo0-0ubuntu0.22.04 See 'snap info rustup' for additional versions.

Please add some hints as well as this is non-standard package!

even after installing cargo apt package the steps are still not final:

cargo tauri build error: no such command: tauri

View all installed commands with `cargo --list`

Hi, @greenozon First, you should fulfill the Tauri Prerequisites: https://v1.tauri.app/v1/guides/getting-started/prerequisites. Then, you should be able to build the app.

Also, I added this link to the installation guide (#40).

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

[greenozon]

Thanks for the reply

I tied to follow the steps for Ubuntu (Debian based) but it still not coming to an end...

@greenozon, sorry to hijack your thread, but maybe it's going to be useful for someone:

To build any Rust app that uses cargo you would want rustup installed - it's Rust's toolchain manager, a command line tool for managing Rust versions and associated tools, including cargo - https://rustup.rs/. You generally have to curl it instead of using your system's package manager. (it's listed in Tauri prerequisites mentioned above)

However, for me the following steps were missing (Win 11), and not listed as Tauri prerequisites nor in the README here (or maybe I'm dumb) :):

1. cargo install tauri-cli --version ^1.0
2. make sure all of the below openssl env vars are set - (I installed a fresh openssl with chocolatey) $env:OPENSSL_DIR = "C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64" $env:OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR = "C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\include" $env:OPENSSL_LIB_DIR = "C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\lib\VC\x64\MD"
3. cargo install trunk (requires those openssl env vars)
4. rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown

@greenozon addressing your issue, what does it say when you try to do cargo tauri build?

[greenozon]

sorry, while fixing the libharfbuzz0b and libharfbuzz-icu0 libs something really weird happened (I lost GUI login) so I had to do the

sudo apt install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop

now I think I"ll do it inside VM...

[TheBestTvarynka]

now I think I"ll do it inside VM...

right decision 👍

[TheBestTvarynka]

@greenozon Did you manage to build the app? Can I close the issue?

[greenozon]

not yet.... thanks for ping back

[TheBestTvarynka]

Feel free to ask any questions. It will also help me to make the documentation better
