# Capitol
Capitol is a Rust library for converting citation strings for United States Congressional documents, e.g., `118hr815` representing the H.R.815 in the 118th Congress, into Rust types. These Rust types can be printed as URLs on Congress.gov or Govinfo, depending on the type of document.

In the current release, citations for bills, resolutions, commitee prints and reports from either chamber, public laws, and statutes at large are implemented. For example, calling `Citation::parse` with the argument `118hr815` returns the following:
```rust
Citation::Measure {
    congress: Some(Congress(118)),
    chamber: Chamber::House,
    measure_type: MeasureType::Bill,
    number: 815,
    version: None
}
```
Calling `to_url` on that struct return https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/815.
