# Derivative [![Travis](https://img.shields.io/travis/mcarton/rust-derivative.svg?maxAge=3600)](https://travis-ci.org/mcarton/rust-derivative) [![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/derivative.svg?maxAge=2592000)](https://crates.io/crates/derivative) [![Crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/l/derivative.svg?maxAge=2592000)](https://github.com/mcarton/rust-derivative#license)

This crate provides a set of alternative `#[derive]` attributes for Rust.

## [Documentation][documentation]
## Stability

This crate is not stable yet and the attributes might change at any time.

For now the crate only works on *nightly* but it uses *rustc*'s Macros 1.1 and
is meant to be usable on *stable* as soon as it is possible.

## What it does

```rust
#[derive(Derivative)]
#[derivative(Debug)]
struct Foo {
    foo: u8,
    #[derivative(Debug="ignore")]
    bar: u8,
}

println!("{:?}", Foo { foo: 42, bar: 1 }); // Foo { foo: 42 }
```

Check the [documentation] for more!

at your option.

## Acknowledgements

This is inspired from how [`serde`] wonderfully handles attributes.
This also takes some code and ideas from `serde` itself.

Some tests are directly adapted from `rustc`'s tests.
