rustc has the concept of a "lint group", where you can toggle several warnings
through one name.
For example, the nonstandard-style lint sets non-camel-case-types,
non-snake-case, and non-upper-case-globals all at once. So these are
equivalent:
$ rustc -D nonstandard-style
$ rustc -D non-camel-case-types -D non-snake-case -D non-upper-case-globals
Here's a list of each lint group, and the lints that they are made up of:
| Group | Description | Lints |
|---|
| warnings | All lints that are set to issue warnings | See warn-by-default for the default set of warnings |
| future-incompatible | Lints that detect code that has future-compatibility problems | ambiguous-associated-items, cenum-impl-drop-cast, coherence-leak-check, conflicting-repr-hints, const-err, const-evaluatable-unchecked, deprecated-cfg-attr-crate-type-name, deref-into-dyn-supertrait, forbidden-lint-groups, ill-formed-attribute-input, illegal-floating-point-literal-pattern, indirect-structural-match, invalid-doc-attributes, invalid-type-param-default, late-bound-lifetime-arguments, legacy-derive-helpers, macro-expanded-macro-exports-accessed-by-absolute-paths, missing-fragment-specifier, nontrivial-structural-match, order-dependent-trait-objects, patterns-in-fns-without-body, pointer-structural-match, private-in-public, proc-macro-back-compat, proc-macro-derive-resolution-fallback, pub-use-of-private-extern-crate, repr-transparent-external-private-fields, semicolon-in-expressions-from-macros, soft-unstable, suspicious-auto-trait-impls, unaligned-references, uninhabited-static, unstable-name-collisions, unsupported-calling-conventions, where-clauses-object-safety |
| nonstandard-style | Violation of standard naming conventions | non-camel-case-types, non-snake-case, non-upper-case-globals |
| rust-2018-compatibility | Lints used to transition code from the 2015 edition to 2018 | absolute-paths-not-starting-with-crate, anonymous-parameters, keyword-idents, tyvar-behind-raw-pointer |
| rust-2018-idioms | Lints to nudge you toward idiomatic features of Rust 2018 | bare-trait-objects, elided-lifetimes-in-paths, ellipsis-inclusive-range-patterns, explicit-outlives-requirements, unused-extern-crates |
| rust-2021-compatibility | Lints used to transition code from the 2018 edition to 2021 | array-into-iter, bare-trait-objects, ellipsis-inclusive-range-patterns, non-fmt-panics, rust-2021-incompatible-closure-captures, rust-2021-incompatible-or-patterns, rust-2021-prefixes-incompatible-syntax, rust-2021-prelude-collisions |
| unused | Lints that detect things being declared but not used, or excess syntax | dead-code, path-statements, redundant-semicolons, unreachable-code, unreachable-patterns, unused-allocation, unused-assignments, unused-attributes, unused-braces, unused-doc-comments, unused-extern-crates, unused-features, unused-imports, unused-labels, unused-macro-rules, unused-macros, unused-must-use, unused-mut, unused-parens, unused-unsafe, unused-variables |
Additionally, there's a bad-style lint group that's a deprecated alias for nonstandard-style.
Finally, you can also see the table above by invoking rustc -W help. This will give you the exact values for the specific
compiler you have installed.
