rbsys/aarch64-linux repository overview

⁠rb-sys

The primary goal of rb-sys is to make building native Ruby extensions in Rust easier than it would be in C. If it's not easy, it's a bug.

⁠Documentation

For comprehensive documentation, please refer to the Ruby on Rust Book⁠, which covers:

• Getting started and quick start tutorials
• Working with Ruby objects, classes, and modules
• Memory management and safety
• Cross-platform development
• Testing and debugging
• API reference for rb-sys crate and rb_sys gem

⁠Components

• rb-sys crate: Battle-tested Rust bindings for the Ruby C API
• rb_sys gem: Simplifies compiling Rust code into Ruby extensions
• rb-sys-test-helpers: Utilities for testing Ruby extensions from Rust
• rb-sys-dock: Docker-based cross-compilation tooling

⁠Supported Toolchains

• Ruby: 2.7+
• Rust: 1.75+

⁠Real-World Examples

• oxi-test⁠ - Canonical example of rb-sys usage (minimal, tested, cross-compiled)
• blake3-ruby⁠ - Fast cryptographic hash function
• wasmtime-rb⁠ - WebAssembly runtime with rb-sys and Magnus
• lz4-ruby⁠ - LZ4 compression library
