Macro transform 

transform!() { /* proc-macro */ }

AI-powered data transformation macro.

Important: It is intended to be used when you understand that such a transformation from source type to target type makes sense.

Syntax

transform!(SourceType, TargetType, source_value)

Requirements

Dependencies: Add both this and runtime to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
ai-transform = "0.1.0"
ai-transform-runtime = "0.1.0"
serde = { version = "1.0", features = ["derive"] }
tokio = { version = "1.0", features = ["macros"] }

Environment: Set your OpenAI API key:

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

Type Requirements: Both types must implement:

• serde::Serialize + serde::Deserialize + Default

Arguments

• SourceType - Input data type
• TargetType - Output data type
• source_value - Expression evaluating to a SourceType value

Returns

Future<Result<TargetType, ai_transform_runtime::error::TransformError>>

Examples

Basic Field Mapping

use ai_transform::transform;
use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)]
struct User { name: String, age: u32 }

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Default)]
struct Profile { full_name: String, years_old: u32, is_adult: bool }

let user = User { name: "Alice".into(), age: 28 };

// AI automatically maps: name → full_name, age → years_old
// and computes: is_adult from age
let profile: Profile = transform!(User, Profile, user).await?;

Error Handling

use ai_transform_runtime::error::TransformError;


match transform!(Source, Target, source).await {
    Ok(result) => println!("Success: {:?}", result),
    Err(TransformError::EnvVarError(var)) => {
        eprintln!("Missing environment variable: {}", var);
    }
    Err(TransformError::ApiError { status, body }) => {
        eprintln!("OpenAI API error {}: {}", status, body);
    }
    Err(e) => eprintln!("Other error: {}", e),
}
