Usage

For stable Rusts

guix search rust-toolchain

For latest nightly/beta

guix build -e '((@@ (rustup build toolchain) rustup) "stable")'
guix build -e '((@@ (rustup build toolchain) rustup) "beta")'
guix build -e '((@@ (rustup build toolchain) rustup) "nightly")'

With guix shell manifest.scm

(use-modules (rustup build toolchain))

;; (packages->manifest (list (rustup "nightly-2024-05-18")))

(packages->manifest (list (rustup)))

Rustup toolchain file

rustup-toolchain rustup-toolchain.toml

Procedure rustup will search for these two file in parent folders like guix shell search for mainfest.scm file. You can manully specify the location of the toolchain file with (rustup "path/to/rust-toolchain")

rustup arguments

(define* (rustup #:optional (channel-or-toolchain-file #f)
		   #:key
		   (components (list ))
		   (targets (list ))
		   (profile 'default))
  ...)

cargo-build-system

Procedure make-cargo-build-system takes the same arguments(toolchain spec) as rustup. Which will replace the default rustc/cargo with rust-toolchain requested by toolchain spec

(package
  (name "rust-*")
  (build-system (make-cargo-build-system "nightly-2024-01-25"))
  ...)
