cargo-geiger: A Rust Tool for Detecting Unsafe Code Usage in Crates and Dependencies
By
tosh
Summary
cargo-geiger is a Rust tool (cargo plugin) that detects and lists statistics about the usage of unsafe Rust code in a Rust crate and all its dependencies. It helps developers assess how much unsafe code is used in their Rust projects and their dependency trees. The tool can be installed via cargo, optionally using a system-wide OpenSSL library or statically linking it, and is run with the command 'cargo geiger' from the directory containing Cargo.toml. The project is based on code from two other projects and is available on GitHub under the geiger-rs organization.
