faerie Build Status Documentatation.

Emit some object files, at your leisure:

use faerie::{ArtifactBuilder, ArtifactError, triple, Link, Decl};
use std::path::Path;

pub fn main() -> Result<(), ArtifactError> {
    let name = "test.o";

        .name(name.to_owned())
        .finish();

    // first we declare our symbolic references;
    // it is a runtime error to define a symbol _without_ declaring it first
    obj.declarations(
        [
            ("deadbeef", Decl::function().into()),

    obj.link(Link { from: "deadbeef", to: "DEADBEEF", at: 7 })?;

    // Finally, we write the object file
    obj.write(file)?;

    Ok(())
}

Will emit an object file like this:
