Add support for Rust #129

Open ChrisMacNaughton opened 8 years ago

ssokolow commented 7 years ago

Given that Rustdoc is built into the core rust distribution, the blessed position rustfmt occupies, and how the community is coming up with things like cargo-fuzz (which makes fuzzing as easy as unit testing), Inch CI feels like it would fit in very well.

Unfortunately, Rustdoc doesn't currently appear to support output formats other than HTML (though the -w and --output-format arguments are reserved for that eventuality).

Getting such a feature added would be the first step toward Inch CI support, but I'm unsure what the procedure is for Rustdoc. (It seems to live in the mainline Rust repository, but I'm not sure whether I'm supposed to start out by filing a bug, trying to write my first ever RFC, or start up discussion on http://internals.rust-lang.org/)

Work is now under way to rewrite rustdoc so it can output multiple formats including JSON.
