history

Project history and usage

rust-parallel is a command-line application for running commands concurrently and aggregating their output.

Project history

Aaron Riekenberg developed rust-parallel as an asynchronous Rust command runner with a GNU Parallel- and xargs-like interface. The official project notes its inclusion in the Awesome Rust utilities list.

Adoption history

The project documents installation through Homebrew, prebuilt Linux/macOS/Windows releases, and Cargo; source_facts.package-manager also records Nix packaging.

How it is used

Inputs may come from standard input, files, or `:::` arguments. The program supports automatic or explicit concurrency, ordered output, pipe blocks, input transformations, timeouts, shell mode, dry runs, and configurable error handling.

Why package nerds care

rust-parallel represents the Rust/Tokio branch of the long-running GNU Parallel and xargs utility family. Its packaging spans Cargo, native binaries, and system package managers, while its implementation showcases asynchronous process orchestration.

Timeline

  • Current project documentation: Available through Homebrew, Cargo, and prebuilt cross-platform releases.

Related projects

  • GNU Parallel and xargs are the principal interface comparators; Tokio provides the asynchronous runtime used for process execution and concurrency control.

security posture

No protected-tool coverage found yet

No matching local secret-handling manifest was found for rust-parallel. Package metadata is still published here so future coverage has a stable package URL.

Install behavior

  • No Homebrew post-install hook is recorded in formula metadata.
  • Homebrew bottle metadata is available for 6 platform targets.
  • Build metadata lists 1 build dependencies.

Recommended review

Before unattended agent use, check whether the tool reads plaintext credentials, writes remote state, publishes artifacts, or shells out to plugins.
