Hello, I started a work on a libvirt binding for Rust [0]. Not all of the API is implemeted but I think it's now in a usable state. https://docs.rs/crate/virt https://github.com/sahid/libvirt-rs The code is licensed under LGPL-2.1, it's tested by a CI running libvirt 1.2.0, 2.5.0, 3.3.0. There are unit tests, integration tests and some examples to exercise the code (some parts are still not covered) I also have checked the code with valgrind to avoid any memory leaks. https://travis-ci.org/sahid/libvirt-rs
This is nice, I am thinking of trying to add a module support for modules written in Rust, but that's just a fun project. Anyway, if I may give you an advice, it would be way nicer if some of the bindings were automatically generated. Libvirt provides all the infomartion necessary in libvirt{,-qemu-lxc}.xml files for you to be able to do this. We already do this for the python bindings, for example. That way they automatically support trivial function additions in newer libvirt versions.
Do you think that we can consider it ready to be hosted by libvirt.org GIT server ? That could help to get new contributors also interested by Rust and improve the code and coverage of the API.
