devbox 0.1.1

Developer toolbox for building and testing
Documentation
//! A collection of small build related librarires intended to be used as `dev-dependencies`
//!
//! # Install
//! To get started, add the following to Cargo.toml under `dev-dependencies`:
//! ```toml
//! [dev-dependencies]
//! devbox = { version = "0.1" }
//! ```
//!
//! # Test macro
//! Adds parametrization capabilty to `#[test]` via `#[args]` attribute macro.
//!
//! ```rust
//! # use devbox_test_args::args;
//! #[args(
//!     char_a: 'a';
//!     char_b: 'b' ! "unexpected character";
//! )]
//! #[test]
//! fn parametrized_test_for(character:_) {
//!     assert_eq!('a', character, "unexpected character");
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Check [#\[args\]] attribute for full example and usage specification.
//!
//! [#\[args\]]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/devbox/test/attr.args.html
//!
//! # Build srcipt
//! Small utility library for easier file manipulation and external tool invocation in Rust build
//! sripts (build.rs) that avoids rebuilding up-to-date build artifacts.
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! # use devbox_build::{Build, Cmd, Resource};
//!
//! pub fn main() {
//!
//!     let build = Build::new();
//!     let websrc = build.manifest_dir().dir("webapp");
//!     let webwrk = build.out_dir().dir("webapp_build");
//!     let webwrk_pkg = webwrk.file("package.json");
//!     let webwrk_pkl = webwrk.file("package-lock.json");
//!
//!     for unit in websrc.content("*") {
//!         unit.link_from_inside(&webwrk);
//!     }
//!
//!     let npm = Cmd::new("npm").arg("--prefix").arg(webwrk.path());
//!
//!     webwrk.dir("node_modules").mk_from("Install WebApp node packages", &webwrk_pkg + &webwrk_pkl, ||{
//!         npm.clone().arg("install").run();
//!         webwrk.dir("node_modules").touch();
//!     });
//!
//!     webwrk.dir("dist").mk_from("Build WebApp using webpack", &webwrk.content("**"), || {
//!         npm.clone().arg("run").arg("build").run();
//!         webwrk.dir("dist").touch();
//!     });
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Check [build] module for fully working example and usage specification.

/// Small utility library for writing Rust build sripts (build.rs).
///
/// It contains a collection of types that should make writing of build sripts a bit easier.
/// It focuses on file manipulation and generation while checking file stamps to avoid unnecessary
/// build steps. It can replace makefiles for simple things like copying some files and invoking
/// some external compiler or tool like NPM when things have changes.
///
/// Most methods do not return a Result but simply panic with consistent error messages stoping
/// Cargo build which is desired behaviour for build sripts in most cases. For situations when
/// you do want to recover from errors or implement a better error reporting most method have a twin
/// method suffixed with '_result' that return `Result` values instead.
///
/// # To install via umbrella devbox crate
///
/// ```toml
/// [dev-dependencies]
/// devbox = { version = "0.1" }
/// ```
///
/// # Example
///
/// Example build sripts builds a web application located in project `root/webapp` inside the target
/// directory using NPM by installing all JS dependencies and running build script through NPM.
/// Built web app is then embedded into Rust binary by packing it as a Rust source code. All
/// the steps are done only on clean builds or when relevant resources change since last build.
///
/// ```rust,no_run
/// # use devbox_build::{Build, Cmd, Resource};

/// pub fn main() {
///
///     let build = Build::new();

///     //-- Setup web app build dir inside of Rust target directory ----------------------
///
///     // Rust does not allow changes outside target directory, so setup a webapp build
///     // directory using links to source files where nodejs and company can do it's thing
///
///     let webrs = build.out_dir().file("webapp.rs");
///     let websrc = build.manifest_dir().dir("webapp");
