extract-variant 1.0.0

//! The [`try_variant`](`try_variant`) macro matches an expression against a
//! given pattern returning a [`Result`](`core::result::Result`). If the pattern
//! matches, then the [`Ok`](`core::result::Result::Ok`) branch is returned
//! including any assignments from the pattern (or [`unit`] if none are given).
//! If the match fails then [`Err`](`core::result::Result::Err`) is returned
//! with either a given error, or a default `Box<dyn std::error::Error>`
//! otherwise.
//!
//! The [`get_variant`](`get_variant`) macro works in exactly the same way,
//! except it returns [`Some`](`core::option::Option::Some`) if the pattern
//! matches and [`None`](`core::option::Option::None`), otherwise.
//!
//! Finally, the [`variant`](`variant`) macro also works the same way, but
//! panics if the pattern does not match.
//!
//! ## Simple Example
//!
//! ```
//! use variant::{get_variant, try_variant, variant};
//!
//! let val = Some((0, 1));
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Some((i, _))).expect("i");
//! assert_eq!(res, 0);
//!
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Some((10, j)));
//! assert!(res.is_err());
//!
//! // Using get_variant instead
//! let opt = get_variant!(val, Some((i, _)));
//! assert_eq!(opt, Some(0));
//!
//! let opt = get_variant!(val, Some((10, j)));
//! assert_eq!(opt, None);
//!
//! // Using just variant
//! let var = variant!(val, Some((i, _)));
//! assert_eq!(var, 0);
//!
//! // calling `variant!(val, Some((10, j)))` will panic.
//! ```
//!
//! ## Guards
//!
//! Conditional guards work the same as with [`matches!`][matches].
//!
//! ```
//! use variant::try_variant;
//!
//! struct Foo {
//!     a: usize,
//!     b: Option<bool>,
//! }
//!
//! let val = Foo { a: 20, b: None };
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Foo { a, .. } if a == 20).expect("a");
//! assert_eq!(res, 20);
//!
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Foo { b, .. } if b.is_some());
//! assert!(res.is_err());
//! ```
//!
//! ## Multiple Assignments
//!
//! When there is more than one assignment within a matching pattern all
//! assignments are returned in a tuple. Since assignments in a pattern may not
//! be ordered linearly, multiple assignments will be returned in lexicographic
//! order.
//!
//! ```
//! use variant::try_variant;
//!
//! let val = (Some(10), Some(true));
//! let (a, b) = try_variant!(val, (Some(b), Some(a))).expect("tuple");
//! assert_eq!((a, b), (true, 10));
//! ```
//!
//! ## Custom Errors
//!
//! ```
//! use variant::try_variant;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug)]
//! enum MyError {
//!     Bad,
//!     Worse,
//!     Expensive,
//! }
//!
//! let val = Some(1);
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Some(i), MyError::Bad).expect("i");
//! assert_eq!(res, 1);
//!
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Some(50), MyError::Worse);
//! assert!(matches!(res, Err(MyError::Worse)));
//!
//! // We can also use an error returning closure with the following syntax
//! let err_closure = || MyError::Expensive;
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Some(50), else err_closure);
//! assert!(matches!(res, Err(MyError::Expensive)));
//!
//! // Doesn't have to be a closure, any callable taking no parameters will do
//! fn make_err() -> MyError { MyError::Expensive }
//! let res = try_variant!(val, Some(50), else make_err);
//! assert!(matches!(res, Err(MyError::Expensive)));
//! ```
//!
//! ## Or Patterns
//!
//! None of the macros support `Or` patterns at any level. This is because
//! there is no simple expected way to signal to the user what values are
//! returned in the case where only some assignments may match. If a pragmatic
//! solution to this problem is found then adding this feature in the future
//! may be possible.
