Profiles

Many cargo profiles are defined to optimize for different use cases.

Flowchart¶

As a general rule of thumb for what option to use, you can follow:

graph LR
    Start((**Start**)) --> Release("`
        Final Release?
        <small>(Slow compilation)</small>
    `")
    Release --> |No| UseDevelop([_develop_])
    Release --> |Yes| Flavor(Optimizing)
    Flavor --> |Speed| Speed("`
        Best size and speeds?
        <small>(slower compilation)</small>
    `")
    Flavor --> |Size| Size("`
        Smallest binary
        <small>(slower compilation)</small>
    `")
    Speed --> |No| UseFast([_fast_])
    Speed --> |Yes| UseFastest([_fastest_])
    Size --> |No| UseSmall([_small_])
    Size --> |Yes| UseSmallest([_smallest_])

Options¶

develop¶

Fastest build times, ideal for iterative development.

fast¶

fastest¶

Same as fast, but with Fat LTO enabled.

small¶

smallest¶

Same as small, but with Fat LTO enabled.

Using a profile¶

Python code¶

from pyaket import PyaketProject

project = PyaketProject()
project.release.profile = "name"

Command line¶

pyaket release --profile name (...)
