Module rust 

Rust code syntax is available through this module.

Rust syntax elements.

Note that no checking exists to make sure the elements are used correctly, i.e. the correct combination of structs. Instead, the library user is expected to have basic knowledge of how Rust syntax is composed, and to combine the structs in this module likewise.

Example:

use async_codegen::common::{CombinedSeq, SingularSeq, Str};
use async_codegen::{Output, Writable};

use async_codegen::rust::{CfgAttr, Deprecated, Function, FunctionDef, FunctionParam, ModPub, MustUse, NoMangle, Parameterized};

async fn write_function<O>(output: &mut O) -> Result<(), O::Error> where O: Output {
  // For more advanced usage, you can replace Str("") by other Writable implementations
  let function_def = FunctionDef {
    attr: SingularSeq(Deprecated::with_message(Str("because we all love deprecation"))),
    mods: SingularSeq(ModPub),
    decl: Function {
      name: Str("my_func"),
      args: CombinedSeq(
        SingularSeq(FunctionParam(Str("var1"), Str("Type"))),
        SingularSeq(FunctionParam(Str("var2"), Parameterized::new(Str("Option"), SingularSeq(Str("bool")))))
      )
    },
    return_type: Parameterized::new(Str("Box"), SingularSeq(Str("str"))),
    body: Str("\ntodo!()\n")
  };
  function_def.write_to(output).await
  // Will render as:
  /*
  #[deprecated = "because we all love deprecation"]
  pub fn my_func(var1: Type, var2: Option<bool>) -> Box<str> {
    todo!()
  }
   */
}

Structs

AllowLints

The attribute content for allow(...). The tuple value must be a sequence.

AssociatedItem

An item attached to an associated container, via “::”. The output will look like Cont::Item.

AssociatedTypeDef

Declares an associated type, rendering as type VarName = Value;. Adds new lines before and after.

AssociatedTypeEquals

Renders as Type=Value. Intended to be used as a type argument, to specify associated types.

AttributesAccept

A sequence acceptor that writes attributes

BoundedTypeVar

A type variable with a sequence of bounds. Will render as TypeVar: B1 + B2 + ...

CfgAttr

An attribute enabled conditionally, i.e. #[cfg_attr(Cond, Attr)]

Closure

Writes a closure. Adds new lines inside the brackets, wrapping the inner expression.

DynOf

Adds a “dyn “ before a type expression.

ExternBlock

Declaration of an extern block, i.e. for FFI.

Function

The base struct for a function. Includes name and arguments. This function is re-used in other places and is likely not helpful by itself.

FunctionBodyDeclare

Declares a function body. This is equivalent to just a semicolon.

FunctionCall

Performs a call to a function inside code.

FunctionDef

A function declaration

FunctionParam

Renders an individual function parameter, Name: Type

ImplOf

Adds a “impl “ before a type expression

LetStmt

A let statement. This statement includes the semicolon and a new line.

Lifetime

A standalone lifetime, intended to be used as a type argument or variable

LifetimedRefOf

Adds a reference with a lifetime before a type expression, i.e. &'<lifetime> <type>

ModExtern

The extern modifier, with the ABI selected as the tuple value

ModPub

The public modifier

MustUse

The must_use attribute

NoMangle

The no mangle attribute.

OkResultOf

Wraps an expression in Ok(EXPR).

Parameterized

A type argument-parameterized expression. Used in relation to parameterized names and their arguments. Examples: function_name<args>, TypeName<'lifetime, args>, MyType<Assoc=Value>.

QuestionMarkAfter

A question mark following another expression.

RefOf

Adds a “&” before a type expression

TraitDef

The declaration of a trait

TraitImpl

The implementation declaration for a trait, applying to a certain receiver.

TypeAsTrait

Uses the as expression to perform a qualified trait cast (ready for a method call). I.e., this will render as <Type as Trait>.

UnsafeBlock

Places the expression inside an unsafe block. Adds new lines inside the brackets, wrapping the inner expression.

Enums

Deprecated

The deprecated attribute. The three variants of this enum correspond to the deprecated attribute’s multiple ways of being specified. See: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/attributes/diagnostics.html#the-deprecated-attribute

Edition

All possible Rust editions. This is the only type in this module meant to be used as context, and not as a writable itself.
