Add an aerospace related crate

[elpiel]

You can participate in #hacktoberfest by adding any crate to the areweinspaceyet.org list

List of crates to be added

• sgp4 (astrodynamics) Add SGP4 #12
• tello (sdk)
• tletools (parser, astrodynamics)
• tle-parser (parser, astrodynamics)
• reed-solomon-erasure (error correction)
• reed-solomon (error correction)
• adafruit_gps
• https://github.com/cubehub/doppler (doppler correction)

• https://crates.io/crates/simconnect-sdk (SDK, simulations)
• https://github.com/mihai-dinculescu/msfs-2020-gps-link (SDK, simulation)

Resource suggestions for crates

• Astronomy crates from https://github.com/rust-unofficial/awesome-rust#astronomy
• Industrial automation from https://github.com/rust-unofficial/awesome-rust#industrial-automation
• Simulation from https://github.com/rust-unofficial/awesome-rust#simulation

The configuration file for the categories and crates found on the website can be found in scraper/config.toml.
To add a crate to the catalogue, you should know that there are 2 types of categories - crates.io categories and our own custom categories:

• Our custom categories - these are the categories that don't have an analogue category in crates.io. You can find those in the scraper/config.toml configuration file which do not include the canonical_slug key (which is the crates.io category slug).
• crates.io categories found here - those categories have the canonical_slug key found in the scraper/config.toml configuration file. For example https://crates.io/categories/aerospace::protocols has canonical_slug = "aerospace::protocols"

How to contribute

• The category in which the crate should be placed must be part of the categories found in scraper/config.toml configuration.
• If the category is not present in the configuration file scraper/config.toml, you can propose this category be added.
• If the crate should be added to one of the categories from crates.io categories found here you should open a PR in the crate's repo itself to include the given category in the Cargo.toml categories section.

Do you have other suggestions? Feel free to add any crate related to the aerospace Rust ecosystem for #Hacktoberfest

Hi can this issue be assigned to me please?

Yes, you can work on this.
PS: This issue is an ongoing effort to add as many crates as possible, not only the ones mentioned in my message so I will leave it unassigned.

In https://crates.io I noticed many many interesting projects to list on https://aerorust.org/ in order to demonstrate the vitality of this ecosystem. How can I help to add them? Should I open one issue per crate to add?

Note: I also found many interesting categories on crates, like https://crates.io/keywords/geospatial

Great to hear you are interested in updating the catalog.

Iirc we collect crates based on categories not keywords.
We can update the logic and include filtering my keywords to automate the process.
Initially we can manually add them in the yaml files in the respective categories.

In addition, we can open prs to crates.io to add more categories.

I'm also open to adding more categories in the catalog
