cargo-add: Add a dependency and enable one or more specific features.

cargo

$ cargo add ${dependency} --features ${feature_1},${feature_2}

try on your machine

This command is used in the Rust programming language's package manager, Cargo.

The cargo add command is used to add a new dependency to a Rust project. In this specific command, ${dependency} represents the name of the dependency you want to add.

The --features flag is used to enable specific features or capabilities provided by the dependency. Features are optional functionality provided by a crate (Rust's term for libraries or packages). By using this flag, you can specify which features you want to activate for the added dependency.

In the command ${feature_1},${feature_2}, ${feature_1} and ${feature_2} represent the names of the features you want to enable for the dependency. These features are comma-separated, allowing you to enable multiple features at once.

Overall, this command allows you to add a dependency to your Rust project while enabling specific optional features provided by that dependency.
