NAME

       cargo-search - Search packages in crates.io

SYNOPSIS

       cargo search [OPTIONS] [QUERY...]

DESCRIPTION

       This performs a textual search for crates on https://crates.io. The matching crates will be displayed
       along with their description in TOML format suitable for copying into a Cargo.toml manifest.

OPTIONS

   Search Options
       --limit LIMIT
           Limit the number of results (default: 10, max: 100).

       --index INDEX
           The URL of the registry index to use.

       --registry REGISTRY
           Name of the registry to use. Registry names are defined in Cargo config files
           <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>. If not specified, the default registry is
           used, which is defined by the registry.default config key which defaults to crates-io.

   Display Options
       -v, --verbose
           Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose" output which includes extra output such
           as dependency warnings and build script output. May also be specified with the term.verbose config
           value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.

       -q, --quiet
           No output printed to stdout.

       --color WHEN
           Control when colored output is used. Valid values:

           •   auto (default): Automatically detect if color support is available on the terminal.

           •   always: Always display colors.

           •   never: Never display colors.

           May also be specified with the term.color config value
           <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.

   Common Options
       +TOOLCHAIN
           If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to cargo begins with +, it will be
           interpreted as a rustup toolchain name (such as +stable or +nightly). See the rustup documentation
           <https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup/> for more information about how toolchain overrides work.

       -h, --help
           Prints help information.

       -Z FLAG...
           Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run cargo -Z help for details.

ENVIRONMENT

       See the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html> for details on
       environment variables that Cargo reads.

EXIT STATUS

       0
           Cargo succeeded.

       101
           Cargo failed to complete.
