Description
> `atty` is unmaintained
| Details | |
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Status | unmaintained |
| Package | `atty` |
| Version | `0.2.14` |
| URL | [https://github.com/softprops/atty/issues/57](https://github.com/softprops/atty/issues/57) |
| Date | 2024-09-25 |
The maintainer of `atty` has [published](https://github.com/softprops/atty/commit/5bfdbe9e48c6ca6a4909e8d5b04f5e843a257e93) an official notice that the crate is no longer
under development, and that users should instead rely on the functionality in the standard library's [`IsTerminal`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/io/trait.IsTerminal.html) trait.
## Alternative(s)
- [std::io::IsTerminal](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/std/io/trait.IsTerminal.html) - Stable since Rust 1.70.0 and the recommended replacement per the `atty` maintainer.
- [is-terminal](https://crates.io/crates/is-terminal) - Standalone crate supporting Rust older than 1.70.0
See [advisory page](https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0375.html) for additional details.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the dependency declaration and usages of `atty` in the repository. Compare the available replacements, `std::io::IsTerminal` and `is-terminal`, then verify that the dependency is removed and terminal detection still works with the project's supported Rust versions.
