While all programs have been implemented, some options might be missing or different behavior might be experienced. <div class="oranda-hide"> To install it: ```shell cargo install coreutils ~/.cargo/bin/coreutils ``` </div> <!-- markdownlint-disable-next-line MD026 --> ## Goals uutils aims to be a drop-in replacement for the GNU utils. Differences with GNU are treated as bugs. uutils aims to work on as many platforms as possible, to be able to use the same utils on Linux, Mac, Windows and other platforms. This ensures, for example, that scripts can be easily transferred between platforms. <div class="oranda-hide"> ## Documentation uutils has both user and developer documentation available: - [User Manual](https://uutils.github.io/coreutils/docs/) - [Developer Documentation](https://docs.rs/crate/coreutils/) Both can also be generated locally, the instructions for that can be found in the [coreutils docs](https://github.com/uutils/uutils.github.io) repository. <!-- ANCHOR: build (this mark is needed for mdbook) --> ## Requirements - Rust (`cargo`, `rustc`) - GNU Make (optional) ### Rust Version uutils follows Rust's release channels and is tested against stable, beta and nightly. The current Minimum Supported Rust Version (MSRV) is `1.79.0`. ## Building There are currently two methods to build the uutils binaries: either Cargo or GNU Make. > Building the full package, including all documentation, requires both Cargo > and Gnu Make on a Unix platform. For either method, we first need to fetch the repository: ```shell git clone https://github.com/uutils/coreutils cd coreutils ``` ### Cargo Building uutils using Cargo is easy because the process is the same as for every other Rust program: ```shell cargo build --release ``` This command builds the most portable common core set of uutils into a multicall (BusyBox-type) binary, named 'coreutils', on most Rust-supported platforms. Additional platform-specific uutils are often available. Building these expanded sets of uutils for a platform (on that platform) is as simple as specifying it as a feature: ```shell cargo build --release --features macos # or ... cargo build --release --features windows # or ... cargo build --release --features unix ``` If you don't want to build every utility available on your platform into the final binary, you can also specify which ones you want to build manually. For example: ```shell cargo build --features "base32 cat echo rm" --no-default-features ``` If you don't want to build the multicall binary and would prefer to build the utilities as individual binaries, that is also possible. Each utility is contained in its own package within the main repository, named "uu_UTILNAME". To build individual utilities, use cargo to build just the specific packages (using the `--package` [aka `-p`] option). For example: ```shell cargo build -p uu_base32 -p uu_cat -p uu_echo -p uu_rm ``` ### GNU Make Building using `make` is a simple process as well. To simply build all available utilities: ```shell make ``` In release mode: ```shell make PROFILE=release ``` To build all but a few of the available utilities: ```shell make SKIP_UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' ``` To build only a few of the available utilities: ```shell make UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' ``` ## Installation ### Install with Cargo Likewise, installing can simply be done using: ```shell cargo install --path . --locked ``` This command will install uutils into Cargo's _bin_ folder (_e.g._ `$HOME/.cargo/bin`). This does not install files necessary for shell completion or manpages. For manpages or shell completion to work, use `GNU Make` or see `Manually install shell completions`/`Manually install manpages`. ### Install with GNU Make To install all available utilities: ```shell make install ``` To install using `sudo` switch `-E` must be used: ```shell sudo -E make install ``` To install all but a few of the available utilities: ```shell make SKIP_UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' install ``` To install only a few of the available utilities: ```shell make UTILS='UTILITY_1 UTILITY_2' install ``` To install every program with a prefix (e.g. uu-echo uu-cat): ```shell make PROG_PREFIX=PREFIX_GOES_HERE install ``` To install the multicall binary: ```shell make MULTICALL=y install ``` Set install parent directory (default value is /usr/local): ```shell # DESTDIR is also supported make PREFIX=/my/path install ``` Installing with `make` installs shell completions for all installed utilities for `bash`, `fish` and `zsh`. Completions for `elvish` and `powershell` can also be generated; See `Manually install shell completions`. ### Manually install shell completions The `coreutils` binary can generate completions for the `bash`, `elvish`, `fish`, `powershell` and `zsh` shells. It prints the result to stdout. The syntax is: ```shell cargo run completion <utility> <shell> ``` So, to install completions for `ls` on `bash` to `/usr/local/share/bash-completion/completions/ls`, run: ```shell cargo run completion ls bash > /usr/local/share/bash-completion/completions/ls ``` ### Manually install manpages To generate manpages, the syntax is: ```bash cargo run manpage <utility> ``` So, to install the manpage for `ls` to `/usr/local/share/man/man1/ls.1` run: ```bash cargo run manpage ls > /usr/local/share/man/man1/ls.1 ``` ## Un-installation Un-installation differs depending on how you have installed uutils. If you used Cargo to install, use Cargo to uninstall. If you used GNU Make to install, use Make to uninstall. ### Uninstall with Cargo To uninstall uutils: ```shell cargo uninstall coreutils ``` ### Uninstall with GNU Make To uninstall all utilities: ```shell make uninstall ``` To uninstall every program with a set prefix: ```shell make PROG_PREFIX=PREFIX_GOES_HERE uninstall ``` To uninstall the multicall binary: ```shell make MULTICALL=y uninstall ``` To uninstall from a custom parent directory: ```shell # DESTDIR is also supported make PREFIX=/my/path uninstall ``` <!-- ANCHOR_END: build (this mark is needed for mdbook) --> ## GNU test suite compatibility Below is the evolution of how many GNU tests uutils passes. A more detailed breakdown of the GNU test results of the main branch can be found [in the user manual](https://uutils.github.io/coreutils/docs/test_coverage.html). See <https://github.com/orgs/uutils/projects/1> for the main meta bugs (many are missing).  </div> <!-- close oranda-hide div --> ## Contributing To contribute to uutils, please see [CONTRIBUTING](CONTRIBUTING.md). ## License uutils is licensed under the MIT License - see the `LICENSE` file for details GNU Coreutils is licensed under the GPL 3.0 or later.
