Currently we are using gclient to mange rust deps:
https://github.com/ry/deno/blob/ad4f335847daffcc5556008aebebaf2d1eecac67/gclient_config.py#L42-L65
These get installed by tools/build_third_party.py
https://github.com/ry/deno/blob/ad4f335847daffcc5556008aebebaf2d1eecac67/tools/build_third_party.py#L30
This task would instead call cargo install to put that source code into //third_party/rust_crates.

I still want to define the build and linking manually in //build_extra/rust/BUILD.gn:
https://github.com/ry/deno/blob/master/build_extra/rust/BUILD.gn#L24-L57
This task is only about how to fetch the source code. Deno does not aim to build like a normal rust package at this point. "cargo build" in the root project directory will fail - that's ok.

Part of this task will be creating a Cargo.toml file for the project. There are only two third party deps so far: "url" and "libc".

I was under the assumption that cargo install was strictly for downloading and installing binary packages instead of libraries (mentioned here rust-lang/cargo#2552). Although I get the idea of what you want.

cargo fetch seems to be the one. Will investigate.
Have also been referenced https://github.com/alexcrichton/cargo-vendor

Edit: cargo fetch and the info on it seems to be outdated.

This functionality doesn't seem to exist in one place, one tool more specifically.
There is an open issue that addresses it though.
rust-lang/cargo#1861

The third-party cargo subcommand cargo clone does the right thing: https://github.com/JanLikar/cargo-clone, but its command line arguments only.

Following from the discussions in #370:

  • Manually parsing Cargo.toml and maintaining the program within deno is a no-go (introducing unnecessary complexity)
  • Most sensible approach is to introduce a cargo subcommand to achieve:
cargo download-deps --download_path=third_party/rust_crates/ --config=./Cargo.toml

and call it in ./tools/build_third_party.py. (@robbym created a POC)

feat: add ext:core/mod.js (denoland#366)
4caa187 
This commit adds "ext:core/mod.js" built-in ES module that reexports
"core", "internals" and "primordials" properties of the 
"globalThis.__bootstrap" namespace. This is very convenient for
embedders that author runtime code using ES modules instead of
scripts, because it allows to import these props directly instead of
capturing "globalThis.__bootstrap" namespace.

To achieve that a new "ModuleMap::lazy_load_es_module_from_code"
method was added that accepts a specifier and source code; instantiates
and evaluates the provided code as ES module.

This will be very useful for
denoland/deno_core#263
and denoland#21422.
