How to support a new crate in Exercism?

Programming Rust

Hello,

To solve the exercise Parallel Letter Frequency, I created a new crate that I published on crates.io.

When I submit my exercise on Exercism, I got the following error:

It looks like you’re using a crate which isn’t supported by our test runner. Please see the file at the below URL to check which ones are supported. Please get in touch if you think your crate should be included or something else about the user experience could be improved.
List of available crates:
rust-test-runner/local-registry/Cargo.toml at main · exercism/rust-test-runner · GitHub

I am wondering if it is possible to add my new crate into this list. I understand this is a very new crate that requires time to be reviewed and tested, but I am open to any feedback to make it better.

Thanks.

We generally only include crates that are popular, well-maintained and broadly useful for exercism. Your crate is nice, but it obviously doesn’t meet the first two criteria.

Besides, this functionality basically exists in the standard library as chunks and chunks_mut.

I understand, thanks for your answer.
However, chunks and chunks_mut do not have the same behavior: it does not split the slice equally if the given chunk size is not a divisor of the slice size. I added an example in the README of my crate.
Thanks.
