# Install Rust Toolchain

This GitHub Action installs a Rust toolchain using rustup. It is designed for
one-line concise usage.

## Example workflow

```yaml
name: test suite
on: [push, pull_request]

jobs:
  test:
    name: cargo test
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v3
      - uses: dtolnay/rust-toolchain@stable
      - run: cargo test --all-features
```

The selection of Rust toolchain is made based on the particular @rev of this
Action being requested. For example "dtolnay/rust-toolchain@nightly" pulls in
the nightly Rust toolchain, while "dtolnay/rust-toolchain@1.42.0" pulls in
1.42.0.

## Inputs

All inputs are optional.

<table>
<tr>
  <th>Name</th>
  <th>Description</th>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td><code>toolchain</code></td>
  <td>
    Rustup toolchain specifier e.g. <code>stable</code>, <code>nightly</code>, <code>1.42.0</code>, <code>nightly-2022-01-01</code>.
    <b>Important: the default is to match the @rev as described above.</b>
    When passing an explicit <code>toolchain</code> as an input instead of @rev, you'll want to use "dtolnay/rust-toolchain@master" as the revision of the action.
