Crates.io #19

Open jnalanko opened 6 months ago

jnalanko commented 6 months ago

Thank you for writing this great library! It has been very useful for me.

Are there plans to publish this library on crates.io? This would make it easier to publish crates that depend on this code. All dependencies of crates on crates.io must be on crates.io.

I have not really considered crates.io. What does publishing a crate there involve, and what are the social expectations? I have limited time available to maintain software, so I try to avoid unnecessary responsibilities.

Publishing is as easy as making an account on crates.io and running cargo publish on the command line. I'm not sure about the social expectations. I understand not wanting to get stuck maintaining the crate for an indefinite amount of time.

To solve my acute dependency management problem, I pushed my fork of the crate here: https://crates.io/crates/simple-sds-sbwt. I hope that is ok for you. The crate name simple-sds is still available if you decide to publish your crate there.
