Crate Structure

Version source of truth: root Cargo.toml [workspace.package] version.

Workspace members (crates/)

• xberg — core library: extraction engine, MIME detection, plugin system, OCR, chunking, embeddings, API/MCP server
• xberg-cli — CLI binary. Defines no cli feature of its own; its core-cli feature is what forwards to the core xberg/cli
• xberg-ffi — C FFI layer; opaque handles, cbindgen headers. Consumed by Go (cgo), C# (P/Invoke), Zig (C ABI), Swift (swift-bridge shim, which injects the dependency itself) and Java (Panama FFM)
• xberg-jni — JNI bindings backing packages/kotlin-android. The Java package does not go through this: alef.toml [crates.java] sets ffi_style = "panama", i.e. Panama FFM over xberg-ffi
• xberg-node — NAPI-RS Node.js/TypeScript bindings
• xberg-py — PyO3 Python bindings
• xberg-php — ext-php-rs PHP bindings
• xberg-wasm — wasm-bindgen WASM bindings; wasm-target feature set
• xberg-native-pdf — pure-Rust PDF engine, vendored into this workspace. Path dependency with no package = alias, so the extern crate name is xberg_native_pdf. Exports LOG_TARGET_ROOT = module_path!(); derive log-target filters from that constant, never a string literal
• xberg-pdfium-render — pdfium FFI backend behind the pdf-pdfium feature. Aliased: pdfium-render = { package = "xberg-pdfium-render", … }, so call sites still write pdfium_render::
• xberg-paddle-ocr — PaddleOCR; ORT and tract engines. On WASM only paddle-ocr-types is available, but paddle-ocr is in windows-target
• xberg-tesseract — Tesseract OCR bindings
• xberg-candle-ocr — candle VLM OCR backends (TrOCR, PaddleOCR-VL, GLM-OCR, DeepSeek-OCR)
• xberg-gliner — GLiNER NER inference
• xberg-libheif — libheif bindings for HEIC/HEIF
• xberg-libwpd — libwpd bindings for WordPerfect (.wpd)

Two members live outside crates/: packages/dart/rust and packages/swift/rust.

excluded — not members, and invisible to cargo check --workspace: e2e/rust, packages/elixir/native/xberg_nif, packages/ruby/ext/xberg_rb.

default-members = ["crates/xberg", "crates/xberg-cli"].

Distribution packages (packages/)

python (PyPI/maturin), ruby (RubyGems/Magnus), php (Composer), go (cgo over xberg-ffi), java (Maven, Panama FFM over xberg-ffi), csharp (NuGet, P/Invoke), elixir (Hex/Rustler), dart (pub.dev, flutter_rust_bridge), kotlin-android (AAR; JNI over xberg-jni), swift (SwiftPM, swift-bridge), zig (C ABI over xberg-ffi).

Tools (tools/)

benchmark-harness (the only workspace member here), generate_test_fixtures, ocr-measure, perf.

There is no tools/e2e-generator — e2e generation is alef e2e generate, configured in alef.toml [crates.e2e]. See the alef-generated-bindings skill.

Adding a workspace member

Adding to [workspace] members and to the Dockerfiles is not enough. Two ignore files use "ignore everything, then allowlist", so a new crate is invisible to Docker and its vendor/ is never committed:

1. .dockerignore — * at the top, then a per-crate allowlist; add !crates/<name>/. Missing it fails every image build with failed to compute cache key: "/crates/<name>": not found.
2. .gitignore — bare vendor/ with per-crate un-ignores; add !crates/<name>/src/vendor/ if the crate vendors source. Missing it means git add -A commits nothing under vendor/ and a fresh clone will not build.
3. Every docker/Dockerfile.* must either COPY crates/<name>/ or sed-exclude the member from the workspace list.
4. Run task verify:docker-crates. It checks (1) and (3) in both directions — it also catches a COPY line naming a crate that no longer exists. It does not look at .gitignore; verify that by hand.

Deleting a crate is the same problem in reverse: a stale allowlist entry is what hides a real omission.
