Tools for writing procedural macros.
The purpose of typ::type_parameters
is to extract type parameters from a given Rust type.
In this example, we generate a type core::option::Option<i8, i16, i32, i64>
and extract its type parameters.
#[ cfg( not( all( feature = "enabled", feature = "typ" ) ) ) ]
fn main(){}
#[ cfg( all( feature = "enabled", feature = "typ" ) ) ]
fn main()
{
// Import necessary macros and modules from the `macro_tools` crate.
use macro_tools::{ typ, qt };
// Generate a token stream representing the type `core::option::Option<i8, i16, i32, i64>`.
let code = qt!( core::option::Option< i8, i16, i32, i64 > );
// Parse the generated token stream into a `syn::Type` object.
// `syn::Type` is a syntax tree node representing a Rust type.
let tree_type = syn::parse2::< syn::Type >( code ).unwrap();
// Extract type parameters from the parsed type.
// `typ::type_parameters` takes a reference to a `syn::Type` and a range.
// It returns a vector of type parameters within the specified range.
// Here, `0..=2` specifies that we are interested in the first three type parameters.
let got = typ::type_parameters( &tree_type, 0..=2 );
// Iterate over the extracted type parameters and print each one.
// The `qt!` macro is used to convert the type parameter back to a token stream for printing.
got.iter().for_each( | e | println!( "{}", qt!( #e ) ) );
/* Expected output:
i8
i16
i32
*/

This example demonstrates an approach to parsing attributes and their properties.
The attributes are collected into a struct that aggregates them, and attribute properties
are parsed using reusable components from a library. The example shows how to use
AttributePropertyBoolean
for parsing boolean properties and the roles of the traits
AttributePropertyComponent
and AttributeComponent
. The Assign
trait is
also used to simplify the logic of assigning fields.
Attributes are collected into a ItemAttributes
struct, and attribute properties are parsed
using reusable components like AttributePropertyBoolean
.
AttributeComponent
: A trait that defines how an attribute should be parsed from asyn::Attribute
.AttributePropertyComponent
: A trait that defines a marker for attribute properties.Assign
: A trait that simplifies the logic of assigning fields to a struct. Using a component-based approach requires each field to have a unique type, which aligns with the strengths of strongly-typed languages. This method ensures that the logic of assigning values to fields is encapsulated within the fields themselves, promoting modularity and reusability.
The reusable property components from the library come with parameters that distinguish different properties of the same type. This is useful when an attribute has multiple boolean properties, for instance. Such an approach helps to avoid limitations where it is always possible to define traits for custom types, while it may not be possible for types defined in other crates.
