What can you learn from RTD?

Assuming you know nothing about Rust, through the Learn Rust by 500 lines code tutorial, step by step to build the project from scratch, you will learn:

  • Rust common syntax
  • Rust module system (package/binary crate/library crate/mod/pub/use)
  • Rust ownership model (Bernstein conditions)
  • Rust lifetime
  • Rust error/null handling model (Result<T, E>/Option<T>)
  • Rust generic
  • Rust pattern matching (if let , match ...)
  • Rust unit test
  • Rust file I/O (File Seek/Buffed File I/O)
  • Rust manipulating environment variables
  • Rust command line parameter parsing
  • Rust release package to crate.io
  • The general process of developing a program (requirements/design/implementation/testing/release/maintenance)
  • Layered abstraction (data storage layer/model mapping layer/data model layer/business logic layer/application interface layer/user interface layer)
  • Handwritten serialization/deserialization from scratch
  • Implement the recycle bin function (virtualization concept)
Architecture

rtd_arch

Storage

Use a local file $HOME/.rtd.csv store all data

data_storage rtd_list_all

After completing this tutorial or installing RTD directly, you will get:

  • Extremely lightweight and concise todo command line application
  • Cross-platform, Rust's excellent build system naturally supports cross-platform
  • Safe, supports recycle bin, completely local, no network, no database
  • All data storage uses only one local csv file, which can be switched between different machines by copying the csv file

Interesting fact: I use RTD to complete the RTD tutorial :)

If you like my tutorial, don't forget to give me a star~


Prepare

  • Rust is naturally cross-platform. This project is built and tested in the linux environment, and Windows/MacOS are also supported. You can choose to download the corresponding Cargo according to your own operating system.
  • Cargo Rust's package management and build tool, can be installed directly through the Rust official website rustup one line command. Then, all things will be done by Cargo, so cute, right?

Install

Via crate.io :

cargo install rtd-tutorial
