Summary

  • add the Rust 1.85 C ABI backed by miniexcel 0.4.0
  • add the MiniExcelRust managed package for netstandard2.0 and net8.0
  • package native assets for Windows, Linux GNU, Linux musl, and macOS on x64/arm64
  • add isolated local-feed package consumption tests
  • add eight-RID CI and a protected preview release workflow

Local validation

  • cargo fmt --all -- --check
  • cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets --locked -- -D warnings
  • cargo test --workspace --all-targets --locked
  • dotnet build src/MiniExcelRust/MiniExcelRust.csproj -c Release
  • ./build/Test-Package.ps1 -Rid win-x64

The NuGet publish job requires NUGET_API_KEY in the protected release GitHub environment and runs only after all eight package consumer jobs pass.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a .NET library for streaming rows from XLSX files.
    • Supports header rows, worksheet selection, and starting from a specified cell.
    • Preserves common cell types, including text, numbers, Boolean values, dates, times, durations, and errors.
    • Targets .NET Standard 2.0 and .NET 8.
    • Provides native packages for Windows, Linux, musl Linux, and macOS on x64 and ARM64.
  • Testing

    • Added package smoke tests covering workbook creation, querying, value validation, and resource cleanup.
    • Added validation across supported runtime platforms.

Add the Rust C ABI, managed streaming facade, isolated package consumer test, eight-RID CI matrix, and protected preview release workflow.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a Rust FFI query engine, a .NET Query API, cross-platform native packaging, package smoke tests, and CI and release workflows for preview NuGet packages.

Changes

MiniExcelRust integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Rust FFI query engine
Cargo.toml, native/miniexcel-ffi/*, rust-toolchain.toml
The Rust workspace exposes a C ABI for opening XLSX queries, streaming typed row batches, reporting errors, and closing handles.
.NET query wrapper and package contract
src/MiniExcelRust/*
The .NET library adds MiniExcelRust.Query, native bindings, binary frame decoding, safe handle cleanup, and runtime-specific package assets.
Native build and package validation
build/*, tests/MiniExcelRust.PackageTests/*, README.md
PowerShell scripts build native libraries, pack and verify the NuGet package, restore a local package, and run an XLSX consumer smoke test. The README documents Rust 1.85 and musl build requirements.
CI and release automation
.github/workflows/*
Workflows validate the Rust and .NET projects, test supported RIDs including musl targets, verify packages in Alpine, assemble packages, and publish validated preview packages.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cc1c2

The preview package should not merge until its consumer test reliably selects the newly built package and release actions are pinned, preventing false validation and unauthorized changes to published artifacts.

Keep Rust 1.85 as the source MSRV, but pin Rust 1.97.1 for the two musl release artifacts because the 1.85 musl targets cannot emit cdylibs.

🌐 Web query:

site:learn.microsoft.com dotnet restore --force global packages folder package cache

💡 Result:

The command dotnet restore --force does not clear or delete your global packages folder or the NuGet package cache [1][2]. Instead, the --force flag instructs the restore process to re-resolve and re-install all project dependencies even if a previous restore was successful [1][2]. It is effectively equivalent to deleting the project.assets.json file for your project [1][2]. This ensures that your local project files are re-evaluated and refreshed, but it does not remove the underlying packages already stored in your global packages or HTTP cache directories [2]. To clear the global packages folder or the HTTP cache, you must use the dotnet nuget locals command [3][4]: To clear all NuGet caches (global packages, HTTP cache, temporary cache, etc.): dotnet nuget locals all --clear To clear only the global packages folder: dotnet nuget locals global-packages --clear To clear only the HTTP cache: dotnet nuget locals http-cache --clear After clearing these folders, you will need to run dotnet restore again to redownload the necessary packages [5][6].

🌐 Web query:

site:learn.microsoft.com NuGet restore package already exists global packages folder source package --packages

💡 Result:

When you run a NuGet restore, NuGet checks the global-packages folder for a package before attempting to download it [1][2]. If the exact version of the package already exists in that folder, NuGet will use the existing files rather than downloading the package again, as this behavior is designed to optimize performance and storage [1][3]. There is no native flag to "force overwrite" a specific package already present in the global-packages folder during a standard restore [1][4]. If you need to refresh or replace a corrupted or cached package, you must perform one of the following operations: 1. Clear the global-packages folder: You can remove all packages from the global-packages directory to force a fresh download on the next restore [5][3]. Use the command: dotnet nuget locals global-packages --clear [3][4] 2. Change the packages directory: You can redirect the restore process to a different, empty directory using the --packages option [4]. This avoids the existing folder entirely: dotnet restore --packages <new_directory_path> [4] 3. Use environment variables: Setting the NUGET_PACKAGES environment variable allows you to point to a different location for the global-packages folder for a specific session or build [5][6][7]. Note that flags like --force or --force-evaluate in dotnet restore are intended to force dependency resolution and project asset file regeneration, but they do not bypass the cache or force the re-download of packages that are already correctly installed in the global-packages folder [8][4].

Citations:


Use an isolated NuGet packages directory.

--force re-evaluates the project but does not bypass the global NuGet packages cache. An existing MiniExcelRust/0.1.0-preview.1 package can replace the archive created in this run. Set --packages to an empty directory before restore.

Decode integer cells as long

CellValue::Int writes a signed 64-bit value under tag 2, but FrameReader.ReadValue converts it to double before Query returns the row. double cannot represent every integer above 2^53, so values such as 2^53 + 1 can be returned as a different number. Return ReadInt64() directly for tag 2 to preserve integer values.

dtolnay/rust-toolchain@master can alter the native assets consumed by publishing. NuGet/login@v1 runs in the publish job with id-token: write and contents: write, so a changed reference can affect package publishing.
