How to build the documentation using cargo xbuild?

[gnzlbg]

I am using xargo doc to build documentation. What's the corresponding cargo-xbuild command for that ?

[phil-opp]

It doesn't exist yet since nobody needed it so far. But it should be relatively simple to add by creating a new binary in src/bin. Do you want to create a pull request?

As an intermediate solution, you can also use the normal cargo doc for it:

export RUSTFLAGS="--sysroot <sysroot>"
export RUSTDOCFLAGS=$RUSTFLAGS
cargo doc --target <target>

Thanks, I'll stick to xargo for the time being - not sure when I'll have time to create a PR.

@gnzlbg Sure! Let's keep this issue open, maybe someone has time to implement it.

@phil-opp wow thank you! I'll see if I can get libc using this instead of xargo. The work of migrating to cargo-xbuild is happening as part of: rust-lang/libc#1376

Thank @Aehmlo for that, I only pushed the merge button :D.

Oh wow, I didn't expect that. Let me know if you have any problems!

All green - it just worked.
