seastar-rs

Idiomatic bindings to the Seastar framework.

This crate is very much a work in progress! Do not use in production (yet).

How to build

seastar-rs finds the compiled seastar library and its dependencies through pkg-config. This means that seastar and each dependency either needs to be installed in the system, or it must be pointed to through the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.

For developers that need to modify the seastar library frequently, the most useful workflow would be to install all dependencies through the ./install-dependencies.sh script but specify seastar through pkg-config:

export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/your/path/to/seastar/build/release/:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
cargo build

Important: seastar-rs currently requires seastar to be built with the -fpie flag. Usage of clang is also heavily recommended:

# In seastar directory
./configure.py --cflags="-fpie" --compiler=clang++ --c-compiler=clang --mode=release --without-demos --without-tests --without-apps
ninja -C build/release
