Rust project in sub dir

[eitsupi]

We need a command like cargo clippy --manifest-path sub/dir/Cargo.toml to inspect Rust projects in subdirectories with clippy, is there any way to make something like this work with MegaLinter?

I tried the following in .mega-linter.yml, but it does not seem working.

RUST_CLIPPY_ARGUMENTS:
  - --manifest-path sub/dir/Cargo.toml

Arguments must be separated :)
Please can you try the following config:

RUST_CLIPPY_ARGUMENTS:
  - --manifest-path
  - sub/dir/Cargo.toml

If u add LOG_LEVEL: DEBUG and inspect the log, you'll see the exact command line called by MegaLinter :)

When you activate fine trace with LOG_LEVEL: DEBUG, what is the command line used ?

Maybe project/sub/dir/Cargo.toml shoud be used?

Note that the current working directory it is running in is /github/workspace, so that should settle any questions of which relative path is the correct one.

But that seems quite strange considering that .mega-linter.yml could be referenced outside of GitHub.

Are you running it in GitHub Actions though?
