Submit to crates.io #158

Open mitchellmcmillan opened 9 years ago

mitchellmcmillan commented 9 years ago

This should be submitted to crates.io. As far as I know it is currently the only way to make GUI applications in Rust, and it would be nice to make it more accessible to the rest of the Rust community.

Hey, we planned to push rgtk to crates.io but i think it's no ready for the moment, we want to separate each library ( cairo, gtk, gdk ), to make them available separately. Moreover the library is not fully usable for now, some things are a bit broken and need some more love. But this should be possible soon ! But you already can use it using cargo as you can add a dependency from a git repository in you cargo.toml file.

@mitchelldmcmillan: I think it'll be done near the end of the year. @jeremyletang: "some things are a bit broken and need some more love" You made my day haha

What's the status of this? I think it's worth it getting something on crates.io. People are often asking for GUI libraries in Rust, and this is often forgotten about because it's not on crates.io.

hi, I will push it on crates.io soon, but I want to be sure that the library build successfully on each platform ( at least linux + mac osx ) before, and that there is no problems with dependancy.

@jeremyletang: then just wait, I update my gdk PR (#164) and you merge it.
