Is there a simple script or plugin that uses patterns to get the root project directory path of a rust project in lua? The pattern should be to vheck for 'Cargo.lock' file

I've had great success with https://github.com/airblade/vim-rooter, for rust projects and many others

It works as expected, thank you

Excellent!

Another good option, and the one lazyvim went with, is ahmedkhalf/project.nvim

Ended up using nvim-rooter. I modified (copy pasted) some of its scripts into a fork of nvim-dap-projects to help setup nvim-dap for a better rust debugging experience. Thanks for the suggestion

If it's that simple why are you not writing it yourself?
