How to install the system_data crate // Lib.rs

system_data is both an executable binary that can be run, and a library that can be used in Rust programs.

Installing the command-line executable

Assuming you have Rust/Cargo installed, run this command in a terminal:

cargo install system_data

It will make the system_data command available in your PATH if you've allowed the PATH to be modified when installing Rust. cargo uninstall system_data uninstalls.

Adding `system_data` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add system_data

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

system_data = "0.1.1"

The system_data library will be automatically available globally. Read the system_data library documentation.
