A tool for formatting Rust code according to style guidelines.
## Quick start
-You must be using the latest nightly compiler toolchain.
+Currently, you can use `rustfmt` on nightly and beta. Rust 1.24 stable will work,
+but we're not quite there yet!
To install:
```
-cargo install rustfmt-nightly
+rustup component add rustfmt-preview --toolchain=nightly
```
+If `nightly` is your default toolchain, you can leave the `--toolchain` off.
+
to run on a cargo project in the current working directory:
```
-cargo fmt
+cargo +nightly fmt
```
-## Installation
-
-```
-cargo install rustfmt-nightly
-```
+If `nightly` is your default toolchain, you can leave off the `+nightly`.
-or if you're using [Rustup](https://www.rustup.rs/)
+## Installation
```
-rustup update
-rustup run nightly cargo install rustfmt-nightly
+rustup component add rustfmt-preview --toolchain=nightly
```
If you don't have a nightly toolchain, you can add it using rustup:
If you choose not to do that you'll have to run rustfmt using `rustup run ...`
or by adding `+nightly` to the cargo invocation.
-Usually cargo-fmt, which enables usage of Cargo subcommand `cargo fmt`, is
-installed alongside rustfmt. To only install rustfmt run
-
-```
-cargo install --no-default-features rustfmt-nightly
-```
## Installing from source
To install from source, first checkout to the tag or branch you want to install, then issue
rustfmt to exit with an error code if the input is not formatted correctly.
It will also print any found differences.
-(These instructions use the Syntex version of Rustfmt. If you want to use the
-nightly version replace `install rustfmt` with `install rustfmt-nightly`,
-however you must then only run this with the nightly toolchain).

A minimal Travis setup could look like this:
cache: cargo
before_script:
- export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.cargo/bin"
-- which rustfmt || cargo install rustfmt
+- which rustfmt || cargo install rustfmt-nightly
script:
- cargo fmt -- --write-mode=diff
- cargo build
visual style previews, [Configurations.md](Configurations.md).
By default, Rustfmt uses a style which conforms to the [Rust style guide][style
-guide]. For details that have not yet been formalized through the [style RFC
-process][fmt rfcs], we try to adhere to a style similar to that used in the
-[Rust repo][rust].
+guide] that has been formalized through the [style RFC
+process][fmt rfcs].
-If there are styling choices you don't agree with, we are usually happy to add
-options covering different styles. File an issue, or even better, submit a PR.
+Configuration options are either stable or unstable. Stable options can always
+be used, while unstable ones are only available on a nightly toolchain, and opt-in.
+See [Configurations.md](Configurations.md) for details.

up rustfmt you should try the following:
