rb-sys

.github/workflows/ci.yml Join the discussion Crates.io Gem

The primary goal of rb-sys is to make building native Ruby extensions in Rust easier than it would be in C. If it's not easy, it's a bug.

Features

  • Battle-tested Rust bindings for the Ruby C API
  • Support for Ruby 2.4+
  • Supports all major platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows)
  • Cross compilation of gems
  • Integration with rake-compiler

Quick links

Usage

Below are some examples of how to use rb-sys to build native Rust extensions. Use these as a starting point for your building your own gem.

FAQ

What dependencies do I need to build a Ruby extension in Rust?

rb-sys will handle most of the dependencies for you, but you will need to have libclang installed on your system.

On MacOS, you can install it with brew install llvm.

On Linux, you can install it with apt-get install libclang-dev.

Supported Toolchains

  • Ruby: 2.6+ (for full compatibility with Rubygems)
  • Rust: 1.65+

Supported Platforms

We support cross compilation to the following platforms (this information is also available in the ./data directory for automation purposes):
