Instructions for trying out experimental Rust support

[jpangia]

I see CodeQL recently added experimental support for Rust, but it looks like it isn't included in the CodeQL cli yet.
Looking at the readme in https://github.com/github/codeql/tree/main/rust for build instructions, it says that if you don't have access to semmle-code repository, you should build Bazel manually. But then it says to run bazel run @codeql//rust:rust-installer in a semmle-code directory, which I do not have access to.

Is it possible to run the experimental Rust support without access to semmle-code? If so, could you provide more detailed instructions?

Hi @jpangia,

It is great to see your enthusiasm for Rust support.
Rust support is still in early development so unfortunately you would have to wait a bit longer before you can experiment with it.

Stay tuned!

Hey @jpangia, just wanted to let you know that we shipped support for Rust in CodeQL to public preview. Give it a go and let us know how things went for you!
