› ask-cli › Install

This crate requires a nightly (unstable, experimental) compiler version. To switch to it, you must have Rust installed via Rustup, and run:

rustup default nightly

Run rustup default stable to switch back.

ask-cli is both an executable binary that can be run, and a library that can be used in Rust programs.

Installing the ask executable

Assuming you have Rust/Cargo installed, run this command in a terminal:

cargo install ask-cli

It will make the ask command available in your PATH if you've allowed the PATH to be modified when installing Rust. cargo uninstall ask-cli uninstalls.

Adding ask_cli library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add ask-cli

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

ask-cli = "0.3.0"

The ask_cli library will be automatically available globally. Read the ask_cli library documentation.
