Sokol: Do you plan to offer rust bindings ?

[DomDumont]

Hi,
I would like to learn rust and , as I like minimalism, I would like to use sokol also ;-)
Do you plan to offer rust bindings ?
Thanks

Especially for the sokol_gfx module, this would be fantastic!

It's currently not high on my list since I haven't written any Rust for quite a while. It would be a good thing though, also for getting some experience how this type of API would be translated to Rust (I guess things like the desc structures would need builder-pattern interfaces in Rust).

I know that @waywardmonkeys has started a sokol-gfx inspired API for Rust (not a binding), but I don't know how far this is and if it is open.

Do you happen to know the project name, or if we can reach him on #rust in IRC by some handle?

I don't sorry, was hoping mentioning him would summon him to this thread so he could chime in :)

Sorry, I was away for a few days in the countryside where internet was slow / painful!

The start that I had was at https://github.com/endoli/grafiska.rs

I had also started at one point doing some bindings around the C implementation using bindgen.

I would love to get some help with grafiska or movement behind doing actual bindings.

Btw, there's now this: https://github.com/code-disaster/sokol-rs
