We have a standing development sync meeting for those that are interested. The meeting is held every two weeks at 9am PST on Tuesday mornings. The direct meeting URL is shared in the Slack channel above ☝️ before the meeting.
These meetings are also streamed live via YouTube if you just want to listen in.
delta-rs requires the Rust compiler, which can be installed with the rustup command.
Running tests can be done with cargo test in the root directory, or one of the directories below:
The rust/ directory contains core Rust APIs for accessing Delta Lake from Rust, or for higher-level language bindings.
