This is an example executable importer plugin for the Rerun Viewer.

It will log Rust source code files as markdown documents. To try it out, install it in your $PATH (cargo install --path . -f), then open a Rust source file with Rerun (rerun file.rs).

Consider using the send_columns API for importers that ingest time series data from a file. This can be much more efficient that the stateful log API as it allows bundling component data over time into a single call consuming a continuous block of memory.
