hexser_macros — Procedural macros for the hexser crate

A small companion utility crate for the main hexser library.

This crate provides the procedural macros that power hexser’s zero‑boilerplate Hexagonal Architecture experience (Ports & Adapters). Most users should depend on hexser directly and let it enable/use these macros. Depend on hexser_macros directly only if you have an advanced use case and know you specifically need the raw macros.

Relationship to hexser (recommended usage)

In typical projects you do not need to add hexser_macros explicitly. The main crate re‑exports and uses these macros for you.

[dependencies]
hexser = "0.3.0"  # macros enabled by default via the `macros` feature

Advanced users who know they only need the macros can depend directly, but this is uncommon:

[dependencies]
hexser_macros = "0.3.0"

Note: The derive and attribute macros are designed to work with the types/traits defined in hexser. Using them standalone usually requires hexser in your dependency tree anyway.

Version compatibility

• Keep hexser_macros and hexser on the same minor/patch version (e.g., 0.3.x).
• When upgrading hexser, upgrade hexser_macros to the matching version.
