Integration directly in rubygems #52

Open ianks opened 5 years ago

ianks commented 5 years ago

Hey @malept,

I have some very exciting news to share, it seems that there is consensus and approval for directly integrating Cargo / Rust directly into rubygems. Please check out https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems/issues/2726#issuecomment-485219667

Thermite IMO is the gold standard right now for building rust extensions in Ruby. I am coming to ask if you would provide some help with writing integration since you have so much valuable knowledge on the subject.

I think this is will prove to be a hugely valuable project for both the Rust and Ruby ecosystems, and thank you as well all of the Thermite contributors for paving the way.

As I mentioned in the issue, I'd be happy to provide support (that's probably not writing code) in any way I can with the limited amount of time I can give to Rust/Ruby integration things. If the functionality in this gem (not necessarily the code itself) can be subsumed into rubygems, that'd be great.
