Is Rust support a possibility?

[DustinReynoldsPE]

I really appreciate the concept of running an LLM with guards that restrict undesired behavior. I'm curious how hard it would be to add Rust support, and if there is demand for it. Thank you for the idea in any case!

Hi @DustinReynoldsPE,

Thanks for reaching out! I'm glad that it appeals to you as well, it honestly makes a huge difference if i may so myself. :)

I think it should be possible and it is something that I am also interested in. The project however has started to grow beyond my current capacity and I would happily accept contributions. Is that something that you would be interested in? :)

Been working on it - should have a PR up soon if everything goes smoothly

Hi @104hp6u,

That's awesome!! Can't wait to give it a try!
Let me know if you need help with anything. :)

Hi @nizos I made a draft PR. This is my first shot at contributing, I'm scared. I likely messed up. If you could take a quick look anyway and let me know if it’s worth your time, I’d really appreciate it. Cheers

I would gladly welcome your first contribution and celebrate it with you @104hp6u ! I'll take a closer look after my shift ends. :)

Thanks again @104hp6u for the rust reporter contribution. Happy to take feedback on the initial release before we close this issue. :)

I had to reimplement tdd-guard-rust because it wasn't updating test.json and always showed the tests as passed. So I have my hooks to just run a python script to create test.json correctly and then run tdd-guard and it seems ok.

Hi @jstillwa!

Thanks for the feedback! Can you elaborate some more on what you had to reimplement? :)

run_tests_example.py And then in the hooks - "hooks": {
"PreToolUse": [
{
"matcher": "Write|Edit|MultiEdit|TodoWrite",
"hooks": [
{
"type": "command",
"command": "python3 run_tests.py && tdd-guard"
}
]
}
],

test.json looks like this:
{
"testModules": [],
"reason": "passed"
}

[jstillwa]

sorry about the python, I'm using tdd-guard to help learn rust ;)

[nizos]

We are all learning! :)
Thanks for sharing the details!

Note - not that it matters too much, but my method was skipping tdd-guard, so had to write a wrapper around my python code and tdd-guard and have it parse the messages and exit correctly. The odd test.json is fixed now with this odd set up, but wanted to note that && alone isn't enough.
