Library description

Rust friendly bindings to *nix APIs.

Library repository

https://crates.io/crates/nix

Motivation

It provides a very easy way of using *nix APIs. It's a safe alternative to the unsafe APIs exposed by the libc crate. It's the 101th crate at the moment in crates.io, I guess that's why it missed the top 100 by one.

Example simple snippet for testing:

use nix;

fn main() {
    println!("tid: {}", nix::unistd::gettid());
}
