My cheat sheet for Rust on ESP. For Rust in general, see The Rust Programming Language and The Embedded Rust Book.

I’m very new to Rust. This is a list of things I had to spend more than five minutes to find solutions or I cannot remember yet, not a How-To.

Creating a project

cargo install cargo-generate
cargo generate esp-rs/esp-template
cd $MY_PROJECT
cargo build
cargo espflash flash --monitor

Generating Projects from Templates

Install cargo-generate.

cargo install cargo-generate

For no_std projects:

cargo generate esp-rs/esp-template

For std, or esp-idf-based projects:

cargo generate esp-rs/esp-idf-template cargo

See also: Generating Projects from Templates

See blinky.rs.

See ESP32 Embedded Rust at the HAL: GPIO Button Controlled Blinking for a more detailed example.

Building a project for a non-default target

cargo build --target=xtensa-esp32s2-espidf

Supporting multiple targets in a project

Some HAL crates, such as esp-hal, require a feature to be enabled. In Cargo.toml:

...

[features]
# define a feature of `esp-hal` by defining a project feature.
# my_feature = ["crate_name/feature"]

# when `esp32` feature is requested, enable `esp32` feature of `esp-hal`.
esp32 = ["esp-hal/esp32"]

# when `esp32s2` feature is requested, enable `esp32s2` feature of `esp-hal`.
esp32s2 = ["esp-hal/esp32s2"]

...

[dependencies]
# disable `default-features`. required features are defined by `features`
# above.
esp-hal = { version = "0.21.0", default-features = false }

Build the project for esp32s2.

cargo build --features esp32s2

See also: Features

Formatting files

cargo fmt -v

Check only:

cargo fmt --check -v

Or, directly invoke rustfmt.

rustfmt src/main.rs

Linting only:

rustfmt --check src/main.rs

Crates and Dependencies

Displaying a dependency tree

cargo tree

See also: cargo-tree(1)

Adding a dependency

cargo add esp_idf_hal

See also: cargo-add(1)

Specifying versions

[dependencies]
regex = ">= 1.2.0"
[dependencies]
regex = ">= 1.2.0, < 1.3.0"
[dependencies]
regex = "~1.2.3"

See also: Specifying Dependencies

Using a crate from a git repository

[dependencies]
regex = { git = "https://github.com/rust-lang/regex.git", tag = "1.10.3" }

See also: Specifying Dependencies

Reading documentation of a crate

Reading the documentation of esp-println in a browser.

cargo doc -p esp-println --target xtensa-esp32-espidf --open

Note that you might need to define CRATE_CC_NO_DEFAULTS (see Known Issues).

Building examples of a crate

Check out the crate:

git clone ${GIT_URL}
cd ${CRATE_DIR}

Build all examples for the default target.

cargo build --examples

Build an example for the default target.

cargo build --example=i2c_ssd1306

Build all the examples for a different target

cargo build --examples --target=xtensa-esp32-espidf

Crates for devices (device drivers)

See esp-rs/esp-hal-community (not so many as of this writing) and crates.io.

See esp-idf-sys build started fail on arm mac os #287.

A workaround: Use CRATE_CC_NO_DEFAULTS environment variable.

CRATE_CC_NO_DEFAULTS=1 cargo build
