Interested in anyone has found a solution for this?

Someone mentioned on the Gitter/Matrix channel that they were able to write something for Rust, but weren't ready to share it. I'll try to get some news.

This someone is @gl-yziquel (based on their username in Gitter/Matrix). Sorry for tagging, feel free to unsubscribe 馃槃

@pawamoy @digitaltopo I have the very very very beginning of a solution; able to get very very rudimentary rust info into mkdocstrings. But it's very hacky, with shell tools to massage the rustinfo json. And the output in mkdosctrings is "hello world" level.
I'll get back to it when I find more time.
I don't mind too much sharing it if someone wants a POC, but...

If you're OK with someone else continuing the work in a fork, it could be interesting to share, yes. But I don't want to rush you or anything, so no worries if you prefer waiting! Thanks in any case for your answer here, appreciate it鈽猴笍

@pawamoy @digitaltopo I'm OK with it. I just don't have the mental bandwith to clean up before publishing. So feel free to ping me until I finish cleaning it up.
pawamoy commentedon Oct 10, 2024
No worries, and I won't ping you if you don't have the bandwidth. No pressure.

I was curious whether there was a PR or fork I might be able to look at. I'm interested in this feature, and maybe I can help out in seeing this through?
pawamoy commentedon Jan 6, 2025
Hey @JP-Ellis, thanks for your interest and your offer to help 馃檪
There's no PR or fork to look at yet. I can try and provide guidance if you'd like to work on this. It could be interesting to synchronize with @gl-yziquel's work ( 馃檱 ) to avoid duplicated efforts, if they're willing to share it.

@JP-Ellis @pawamoy I unfortunately have no mental bandwith at the moment. I wish I had...
If I knew how get a way to send some email or so anonymously to @JP-Ellis, I could zip the thing up and send it, but it honnestly will not be anything that works on some other machine than mine. (and it will be a very ugly hack, almost unusable in its present state).
JP-Ellis commentedon Feb 18, 2025
Completely understand that what you have may not be working well and not generalisable. It might be useful to me and I might be able to adapt what you have or use as a reference.
Happy for you to send it to the email address on my GitHub profile if you are concerned about sharing it publicly.
JP-Ellis commentedon Dec 2, 2025
It may not be planned, but I've been quietly working on this when I get time, chipping at it little by little
pawamoy commentedon Dec 2, 2025
@JP-Ellis that's great! mkdocstrings is still here so you can release your Rust handler any time you want and it should work 馃檪
