Do older cargo versions ignore the categories in the toml, that is, is it backwards compatible? @kamalmarhubi, @posborne I think the proposed category fits perfectly. I was thinking about adding |
Yep! That's actually the reason you must have a new version of Cargo to publish categories. Cargo has a whitelist of properties that it sends to the crates.io server. |

In that case @homu r+ Thank you |

Add categories to Cargo.toml Hi! [crates.io now supports categories][categories], which are a curated list of topics aimed at helping an end-user coming to crates.io looking for "a crate to do ______". We're sending pull requests to selected crates to add categories in order to help populate the categories and seed their usefulness. We've made a guess at the best category/categories for this crate; if it doesn't fit, please feel free to take a look at [all the available categories and their descriptions][categories] and [the slug values that should be specified in your Cargo.toml][slugs] and pick different ones. If you have a category in mind that isn't available, you can [send a PR to this file on crates.io][categories.toml] to propose additional categories. Crates can have up to 5 categories, and uploading categories to crates.io currently requires publishing a new version with a cargo nightly from 2017-01-18 or later (it needs to contain [this PR][cargo-pr]). We've [published a blog post][blog-post] with further details about categories. The blog post also talks about the new crates.io support for CI badges, which you may be interested in adding as well. Please let me know if you have any questions!
