NAME
cargo-fix - Automatically fix lint warnings reported by rustc
SYNOPSIS
cargo fix [options]
DESCRIPTION
This Cargo subcommand will automatically take rustc's suggestions from
diagnostics like warnings and apply them to your source code. This is intended
to help automate tasks that rustc itself already knows how to tell you to fix!
Executing cargo fix will under the hood execute cargo-check(1). Any warnings
applicable to your crate will be automatically fixed (if possible) and all
remaining warnings will be displayed when the check process is finished. For
example if you'd like to apply all fixes to the current package, you can run:
-
cargo fix
which behaves the same as cargo check --all-targets.
cargo fix is only capable of fixing code that is normally compiled with
cargo check. If code is conditionally enabled with optional features, you
will need to enable those features for that code to be analyzed:
-
cargo fix --features foo
Similarly, other cfg expressions like platform-specific code will need to
pass --target to fix code for the given target.
-
cargo fix --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
If you encounter any problems with cargo fix or otherwise have any questions
or feature requests please don't hesitate to file an issue at
<https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo>.
Edition migration
The cargo fix subcommand can also be used to migrate a package from one
edition <https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/editions/transitioning-an-existing-project-to-a-new-edition.html> to the next. The general procedure is:
-
1.Run cargo fix --edition. Consider also using the --all-features flag if
your project has multiple features. You may also want to run cargo fix --edition multiple times with different --target flags if your project
has platform-specific code gated by cfg attributes.
-
2.Modify Cargo.toml to set the edition field <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html#the-edition-field> to the new edition.
-
3.Run your project tests to verify that everything still works. If new
warnings are issued, you may want to consider running cargo fix again
(without the --edition flag) to apply any suggestions given by the
compiler.
And hopefully that's it! Just keep in mind of the caveats mentioned above that
cargo fix cannot update code for inactive features or cfg expressions.
Also, in some rare cases the compiler is unable to automatically migrate all
code to the new edition, and this may require manual changes after building
with the new edition.
OPTIONS
Fix options
--broken-code
-
Fix code even if it already has compiler errors. This is useful if cargo fix
fails to apply the changes. It will apply the changes and leave the broken
code in the working directory for you to inspect and manually fix.
--edition
-
Apply changes that will update the code to the next edition. This will not
update the edition in the Cargo.toml manifest, which must be updated
manually after cargo fix --edition has finished.
--edition-idioms
-
Apply suggestions that will update code to the preferred style for the current
edition.
--allow-no-vcs
-
Fix code even if a VCS was not detected.
--allow-dirty
-
Fix code even if the working directory has changes.
--allow-staged
-
Fix code even if the working directory has staged changes.
Package Selection
By default, when no package selection options are given, the packages selected
depend on the selected manifest file (based on the current working directory if
--manifest-path is not given). If the manifest is the root of a workspace then
the workspaces default members are selected, otherwise only the package defined
by the manifest will be selected.
The default members of a workspace can be set explicitly with the
workspace.default-members key in the root manifest. If this is not set, a
virtual workspace will include all workspace members (equivalent to passing
--workspace), and a non-virtual workspace will include only the root crate itself.
-p spec...,
--package spec...
-
Fix only the specified packages. See cargo-pkgid(1) for the
SPEC format. This flag may be specified multiple times and supports common Unix
glob patterns like *, ? and []. However, to avoid your shell accidentally
expanding glob patterns before Cargo handles them, you must use single quotes or
double quotes around each pattern.
--workspace
-
Fix all members in the workspace.
--all
-
Deprecated alias for --workspace.
--exclude SPEC...
-
Exclude the specified packages. Must be used in conjunction with the
--workspace flag. This flag may be specified multiple times and supports
common Unix glob patterns like *, ? and []. However, to avoid your shell
accidentally expanding glob patterns before Cargo handles them, you must use
single quotes or double quotes around each pattern.
Target Selection
When no target selection options are given, cargo fix will fix all targets
(--all-targets implied). Binaries are skipped if they have
required-features that are missing.
Passing target selection flags will fix only the specified
targets.
Note that --bin, --example, --test and --bench flags also
support common Unix glob patterns like *, ? and []. However, to avoid your
shell accidentally expanding glob patterns before Cargo handles them, you must
use single quotes or double quotes around each glob pattern.
--lib
-
Fix the package's library.
--bin name...
-
Fix the specified binary. This flag may be specified multiple times
and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--bins
-
Fix all binary targets.
--example name...
-
Fix the specified example. This flag may be specified multiple times
and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--examples
-
Fix all example targets.
--test name...
-
Fix the specified integration test. This flag may be specified
multiple times and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--tests
-
Fix all targets in test mode that have the test = true manifest
flag set. By default this includes the library and binaries built as
unittests, and integration tests. Be aware that this will also build any
required dependencies, so the lib target may be built twice (once as a
unittest, and once as a dependency for binaries, integration tests, etc.).
Targets may be enabled or disabled by setting the test flag in the
manifest settings for the target.
--bench name...
-
Fix the specified benchmark. This flag may be specified multiple
times and supports common Unix glob patterns.
--benches
-
Fix all targets in benchmark mode that have the bench = true
manifest flag set. By default this includes the library and binaries built
as benchmarks, and bench targets. Be aware that this will also build any
required dependencies, so the lib target may be built twice (once as a
benchmark, and once as a dependency for binaries, benchmarks, etc.).
Targets may be enabled or disabled by setting the bench flag in the
manifest settings for the target.
--all-targets
-
Fix all targets. This is equivalent to specifying --lib --bins --tests --benches --examples.
Feature Selection
The feature flags allow you to control which features are enabled. When no
feature options are given, the default feature is activated for every
selected package.
See the features documentation <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/features.html#command-line-feature-options>
for more details.
-F features,
--features features
-
Space or comma separated list of features to activate. Features of workspace
members may be enabled with package-name/feature-name syntax. This flag may
be specified multiple times, which enables all specified features.
--all-features
-
Activate all available features of all selected packages.
--no-default-features
-
Do not activate the default feature of the selected packages.
Compilation Options
--target triple
-
Fix for the given architecture. The default is the host architecture. The general format of the triple is
<arch><sub>-<vendor>-<sys>-<abi>. Run rustc --print target-list for a
list of supported targets. This flag may be specified multiple times.
This may also be specified with the build.target
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
Note that specifying this flag makes Cargo run in a different mode where the
target artifacts are placed in a separate directory. See the
build cache <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/guide/build-cache.html> documentation for more details.
-r,
--release
-
Fix optimized artifacts with the release profile.
See also the --profile option for choosing a specific profile by name.
--profile name
-
Fix with the given profile.
As a special case, specifying the test profile will also enable checking in
test mode which will enable checking tests and enable the test cfg option.
See rustc tests <https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/tests/index.html> for more
detail.
See the the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/profiles.html> for more details on profiles.
--ignore-rust-version
-
Fix the target even if the selected Rust compiler is older than the
required Rust version as configured in the project's rust-version field.
--timings=fmts
-
Output information how long each compilation takes, and track concurrency
information over time. Accepts an optional comma-separated list of output
formats; --timings without an argument will default to --timings=html.
Specifying an output format (rather than the default) is unstable and requires
-Zunstable-options. Valid output formats:
-
•html (unstable, requires -Zunstable-options): Write a human-readable file cargo-timing.html to the
target/cargo-timings directory with a report of the compilation. Also write
a report to the same directory with a timestamp in the filename if you want
to look at older runs. HTML output is suitable for human consumption only,
and does not provide machine-readable timing data.
-
•json (unstable, requires -Zunstable-options): Emit machine-readable JSON
information about timing information.
Output Options
--target-dir directory
-
Directory for all generated artifacts and intermediate files. May also be
specified with the CARGO_TARGET_DIR environment variable, or the
build.target-dir config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
Defaults to target in the root of the workspace.
Display Options
-v,
--verbose
-
Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose" output which
includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build script output.
May also be specified with the term.verbose
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
-q,
--quiet
-
Do not print cargo log messages.
May also be specified with the term.quiet
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
--color when
-
Control when colored output is used. Valid values:
-
•auto (default): Automatically detect if color support is available on the
terminal.
-
•always: Always display colors.
-
•never: Never display colors.
May also be specified with the term.color
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
--message-format fmt
-
The output format for diagnostic messages. Can be specified multiple times
and consists of comma-separated values. Valid values:
-
•human (default): Display in a human-readable text format. Conflicts with
short and json.
-
•short: Emit shorter, human-readable text messages. Conflicts with human
and json.
-
•json: Emit JSON messages to stdout. See
the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/external-tools.html#json-messages>
for more details. Conflicts with human and short.
-
•json-diagnostic-short: Ensure the rendered field of JSON messages contains
the "short" rendering from rustc. Cannot be used with human or short.
-
•json-diagnostic-rendered-ansi: Ensure the rendered field of JSON messages
contains embedded ANSI color codes for respecting rustc's default color
scheme. Cannot be used with human or short.
-
•json-render-diagnostics: Instruct Cargo to not include rustc diagnostics
in JSON messages printed, but instead Cargo itself should render the
JSON diagnostics coming from rustc. Cargo's own JSON diagnostics and others
coming from rustc are still emitted. Cannot be used with human or short.
Manifest Options
--manifest-path path
-
Path to the Cargo.toml file. By default, Cargo searches for the
Cargo.toml file in the current directory or any parent directory.
--frozen,
--locked
-
Either of these flags requires that the Cargo.lock file is
up-to-date. If the lock file is missing, or it needs to be updated, Cargo will
exit with an error. The --frozen flag also prevents Cargo from
attempting to access the network to determine if it is out-of-date.
These may be used in environments where you want to assert that the
Cargo.lock file is up-to-date (such as a CI build) or want to avoid network
access.
--offline
-
Prevents Cargo from accessing the network for any reason. Without this
flag, Cargo will stop with an error if it needs to access the network and
the network is not available. With this flag, Cargo will attempt to
proceed without the network if possible.
Beware that this may result in different dependency resolution than online
mode. Cargo will restrict itself to crates that are downloaded locally, even
if there might be a newer version as indicated in the local copy of the index.
See the cargo-fetch(1) command to download dependencies before going
offline.
May also be specified with the net.offline config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.
Common Options
+toolchain
-
If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to cargo
begins with +, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain name (such
as +stable or +nightly).
See the rustup documentation <https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html>
for more information about how toolchain overrides work.
--config KEY=VALUE or PATH
-
Overrides a Cargo configuration value. The argument should be in TOML syntax of KEY=VALUE,
or provided as a path to an extra configuration file. This flag may be specified multiple times.
See the command-line overrides section <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#command-line-overrides> for more information.
-h,
--help
-
Prints help information.
-Z flag
-
Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run cargo -Z help for details.
Miscellaneous Options
-j N,
--jobs N
-
Number of parallel jobs to run. May also be specified with the
build.jobs config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. Defaults to
the number of logical CPUs. If negative, it sets the maximum number of
parallel jobs to the number of logical CPUs plus provided value.
Should not be 0.
--keep-going
-
Build as many crates in the dependency graph as possible, rather than aborting
the build on the first one that fails to build. Unstable, requires
-Zunstable-options.
ENVIRONMENT
See the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html> for
details on environment variables that Cargo reads.
EXIT STATUS
-
•0: Cargo succeeded.
-
•101: Cargo failed to complete.
