 "NAME"
cargo-locate-project \[em] Print a JSON representation of a Cargo.toml file\[cq]s location
 "SYNOPSIS"
cargo locate-project [options]
 "DESCRIPTION"
This command will print a JSON object to stdout with the full path to the manifest. The
manifest is found by searching upward for a file named Cargo.toml starting from the current
working directory.
If the project happens to be a part of a workspace, the manifest of the project, rather than
the workspace root, is output. This can be overridden by the --workspace flag. The root
workspace is found by traversing further upward or by using the field package.workspace after
locating the manifest of a workspace member.
 "OPTIONS"
--workspace

Locate the Cargo.toml at the root of the workspace, as opposed to the current
workspace member.

 "Display Options"
--message-format fmt

The representation in which to print the project location. Valid values:

\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'json (default): JSON object with the path under the key \[lq]root\[rq].


\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'plain: Just the path.


-v,
--verbose

Use verbose output. May be specified twice for \[lq]very verbose\[rq] output which
includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build script output.
May also be specified with the term.verbose
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.

-q,
--quiet

Do not print cargo log messages.
May also be specified with the term.quiet
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.

--color when

Control when colored output is used. Valid values:

\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'auto (default): Automatically detect if color support is available on the
terminal.


\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'always: Always display colors.


\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'never: Never display colors.

May also be specified with the term.color
config value <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html>.

 "Manifest Options"
--manifest-path path

Path to the Cargo.toml file. By default, Cargo searches for the
Cargo.toml file in the current directory or any parent directory.

 "Common Options"
+toolchain

If Cargo has been installed with rustup, and the first argument to cargo
begins with +, it will be interpreted as a rustup toolchain name (such
as +stable or +nightly).
See the rustup documentation <https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/overrides.html>
for more information about how toolchain overrides work.

--config KEY=VALUE or PATH

Overrides a Cargo configuration value. The argument should be in TOML syntax of KEY=VALUE,
or provided as a path to an extra configuration file. This flag may be specified multiple times.
See the command-line overrides section <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html#command-line-overrides> for more information.

-C PATH

Changes the current working directory before executing any specified operations. This affects
things like where cargo looks by default for the project manifest (Cargo.toml), as well as
the directories searched for discovering .cargo/config.toml, for example. This option must
appear before the command name, for example cargo -C path/to/my-project build.
This option is only available on the nightly
channel <https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/appendix-07-nightly-rust.html> and
requires the -Z unstable-options flag to enable (see
#10098 <https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/10098>).

-h,
--help

Prints help information.

-Z flag

Unstable (nightly-only) flags to Cargo. Run cargo -Z help for details.

 "ENVIRONMENT"
See the reference <https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html> for
details on environment variables that Cargo reads.
 "EXIT STATUS"

\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'0: Cargo succeeded.


\h'-04'\(bu\h'+02'101: Cargo failed to complete.

 "EXAMPLES"

\h'-04' 1.\h'+01'Display the path to the manifest based on the current directory:

cargo locate-project
