rusty_v8, how to mutate scope outside anonymous function

Hi, I'm trying to use the v8 rust create to run javascript on my backend and now I'm stuck at how to modify a Vec<String> declared outside a anonymous function scope, as said function gets used to be the callback of a v8::Function. 
let logs = Vec::new();

let log_callback = |scope: &mut v8::HandleScope,
                    args: v8::FunctionCallbackArguments,
                    mut rv: v8::ReturnValue| {
    let arg = args.get(0);
    let arg_string = arg.to_string(scope).unwrap().to_rust_string_lossy(scope);

    logs.push(arg_string); // <---- How can I do this?

    rv.set(v8::undefined(scope).into());
};

// https://github.com/matejkoncal/v8-experiments/blob/master/src/main.rs
let log_fn = v8::Function::new(scope, log_callback).unwrap().into();
let name = v8::String::new(scope, "log").unwrap().into();
let global = context.global(scope);
global.set(scope, name, log_fn);
let logs = Vec::new();

let log_callback = |scope: &mut v8::HandleScope,
                    args: v8::FunctionCallbackArguments,
                    mut rv: v8::ReturnValue| {
    let arg = args.get(0);
    let arg_string = arg.to_string(scope).unwrap().to_rust_string_lossy(scope);

    logs.push(arg_string); // <---- How can I do this?

    rv.set(v8::undefined(scope).into());
};

// https://github.com/matejkoncal/v8-experiments/blob/master/src/main.rs
let log_fn = v8::Function::new(scope, log_callback).unwrap().into();
let name = v8::String::new(scope, "log").unwrap().into();
let global = context.global(scope);
global.set(scope, name, log_fn);
The errors I'm getting are the following: 
error[E0277]: the trait bound `{closure@src\post_run_js.rs:23:24: 25:49}: MapFnTo<extern "C" fn(*const FunctionCallbackInfo)>` is not satisfied

Please be aware that I'm still very new to Rust so extra insights into what's going wrong here would be very helpful!

For the logs vector, you need to wrap it in Rc and RefCell: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/52994205/what-is-the-standard-way-to-call-a-mutable-method-in-a-rc-wrapped-object As for the v8 thing, I've not try it myself.

In the following code, I am trying to change the value of a refcounted object by calling one of its methods: use std::rc::Rc; fn main() { let mut x = Rc::new(Thing { num: 50 }); x.

For the function error, you actually can't use closure because the type impl MapFnTo<FunctionCallback> doesn't allow to. Closure is when you use external var inside the |arg| {} form. See this playground.
