A **no-std** crate to reconstruct Arabic, Turkish and Persian sentences to be used in applications that don't support Arabic script.
# Usage:
resahpe a single line of string
```rust
use ar_reshaper::{ArabicReshaper, reshape_line};
let reshaper = ArabicReshaper::default();
// You can reshape just a single string using
println!("{}", reshaper.reshape("سلام دنیا"));
// or using `reshape_line` method if you dont want to construct the [ArabicReshaper]
// and you just want to reshape a few strings with default config
println!("{}", reshape_line("سلام دنیا"));
// Both will reconstruct the string and print `ﺳﻼﻡ ﺩﻧﯿﺎ`
```
reshape a slice of strings
```rust
use ar_reshaper::ArabicReshaper;
let reshaper = ArabicReshaper::default();
let lines = [
"سلام",
"سلام، خوبی؟",
];
println!("{:#?}", reshaper.reshape_lines(lines));
// or you can just use reshape method in a loop... the choice is yours.
```
reshape strings on a iterator
```rust
use ar_reshaper::prelude::*;
for line in ["یک", "دو"].iter().reshape_default() {
println!("{line}");
}
```

# features:
- **serde**: if this feature is enabled the `ReshaperConfig` can be serialized and de-serialized using serde.
- **ttf-parser**: if you enable this feature the `ReshaperConfig` method will have another extra
method named `from_font` that can be used to enable ligatures only if they exist in the input font.
## notes:
- keep in mind that this crate need a allocator to work, because we depend on `alloc` internally.
