rust-inspector

rust-inspector is a utility to extract dependencies and symbols from Rust binaries. It is designed to work as a ScanCode Toolkit plugin and integrated in ScanCode.io pipelines.

To install and use:

  • Run pip install rust-inspector

  • Use with scancode --json-pp - --rust-symbol --verbose <PATH to a tree or file with Rust binaries>

The JSON output will contain binary symbols found in Rust binaries if any.

A Go compiler is required to build go-inspector. Install Go from https://go.dev/doc/install or from a package manager.

Development

  • Install requirements and dependencies using ./configure --clean && ./configure --dev

  • Then source venv/bin/activate

Testing:

  • To run tests: pytest -vvs

  • To regen test fixtures: SCANCODE_REGEN_TEST_FIXTURES=yes pytest -vvs
