cargo-build: Build a specific package.

cargo

$ cargo build --package ${package}

try on your machine

This command is used in the Rust programming language and its package manager called Cargo.

The cargo build command is used to compile and build a Rust project. It reads the project's Cargo.toml manifest file to determine the project configuration and dependencies, and then compiles the code accordingly.

The --package flag is used to specify a specific package or sub-package within a workspace to build. In a workspace with multiple packages, this flag allows you to selectively build a particular package. ${package} is a placeholder for the name of the package you want to build. You should replace it with the actual package name you want to build.

So, the overall command cargo build --package ${package} is used to build a specific package within a Rust workspace using Cargo.
