Consider adding playground-specific metadata

Version

0.2.x

Description

With the changes in 0.2.x to use a feature-flagged tokio crate where everything is off by default, there's the possibility of Tokio not being shown in its best light on the playground.

The playground has custom metadata that allows crate owners to opt in to what features will be enabled on the playground.

This is not an immediate concern as Tokio is currently only brought into the playground as a dependency (of hyper and reqwest), so whatever flags they use should be sufficient, once they update to 0.2.x.

I would be happy to add whatever metadata. Are you able to submit a PR w/ that?

How does one get Tokio 0.2 in the playground?

How does one get Tokio 0.2 in the playground?

The criteria is one of:

• Be in the Rust Cookbook
• Be one of the top 100 downloaded crates
• Be a dependency of a crate otherwise included

Generally, the only directly-actionable route is the cookbook.

Are you able to submit a PR w/ that?

I could. I assume that full would be the correct general-purpose feature?

[carllerche]

Yep, full is the way to go.

I guess once hyper is updated to 0.2, then tokio will be included. I guess we should fix it before that...

[LucioFranco]

Yeah, we should def include it as full 👍 thanks for reaching out!
