Mingling

Intro

A Rust CLI framework for many subcmds & complex workflows, reduces boilerplate via proc macros, focus on biz logic

Use

use mingling::macros::{dispatcher, gen_program, r_println, renderer};

fn main() {
    let mut program = ThisProgram::new();
    program.with_dispatcher(HelloCommand);

    // Execute
    program.exec();
}

// Define command: "<bin> hello"
dispatcher!("hello", HelloCommand => HelloEntry);

// Render HelloEntry
#[renderer]
fn render_hello_world(_prev: HelloEntry) {
    r_println!("Hello, World!")
}

// Fallbacks
#[renderer]
fn fallback_dispatcher_not_found(prev: DispatcherNotFound) {
    r_println!("Dispatcher not found for command `{}`", prev.join(", "))
}

#[renderer]
fn fallback_renderer_not_found(prev: RendererNotFound) {
    r_println!("Renderer not found `{}`", *prev)
}

// Collect renderers and chains to generate ThisProgram
gen_program!();

> mycmd hello
Hello, World!
> mycmd hallo
Dispatcher not found for command `hallo`

Features

• async enables async runtime support for command execution, see example for details
• comp enables command completion functionality, see example for details
• parser enables the mingling::parser module, see example for details
• general_renderer adds support for serialized output formats such as JSON and YAML, see example for details

Examples

Mingling provides detailed usage examples for your reference. See Examples

Re-exports

Modules

_mingling_examples

Example projects for Mingling, for learning how to use Mingling

build

Provides build scripts for users

debug

Provided for framework developers

error

All error types of Mingling

feature

Module for checking which features are enabled at compile time.

macros

Re-export from mingling_macros

parser

Mingling argument parser

prelude

The prelude module provides convenient re-exports of commonly used macros and traits.

res

Mutable global resources provided within Mingling

setup

Setups provided by Mingling, which can extend command-line programs.

test

Provides a toolkit for Mingling testing capabilities.

Macros

assert_chain_result

Asserts that a chain process result is Ok and has the expected output type.

assert_member_id

Asserts that the result’s output type matches the expected member_id.

assert_next

Asserts that a chain process result has the expected output type and next state.

assert_render_result

Alias for assert_chain_result.

debug

Logs a message at the debug level, but only if the debug feature is enabled. Delegates to log::debug! internally.

error

Logs a message at the error level, but only if the debug feature is enabled. Delegates to log::error! internally.

info

Logs a message at the info level, but only if the debug feature is enabled. Delegates to log::info! internally.

only_debug

A macro that only executes the given expressions when the debug feature is enabled. If the feature is not enabled, the expressions are compiled away.

trace

Logs a message at the trace level, but only if the debug feature is enabled. Delegates to log::trace! internally.

warn

Logs a message at the warn level, but only if the debug feature is enabled. Delegates to log::warn! internally.

Structs

AnyOutput

Any type output

CompletionHelper

A helper struct for handling command-line completion logic.

Dispatchers

A collection of dispatchers.

Flag

A wrapper for a collection of static string slices representing command-line flags or arguments.

GeneralRenderer

A general renderer that supports multiple serialization formats.

GlobalResource

Global assets for storing Program global state information

Node

Represents a command node, used to match user-input command paths.

Program

Program, used to define the behavior of the entire command-line program

ProgramStdoutSetting

Program stdout settings

ProgramUserContext

Program user context

RenderResult

Render result, containing the rendered text content.

ShellContext

Context passed from the shell to the completion system, providing information about the current command line state to guide how completions should be generated.

Enums

ChainProcess

Chain exec result type

GeneralRendererSetting

Settings for the general renderer output format.

NextProcess

Indicates the next step after processing

ShellFlag

Represents the shell environment for which the output format is intended.

Suggest

A completion suggestion that tells the shell how to perform completion. This can be either a set of specific suggestion items or a request for file completion.

SuggestItem

Represents a single suggestion item for shell completion.

Traits

Chain

Takes over a type (G: Previous) and converts it to another AnyOutput

Completion

Trait for implementing completion logic.

CompletionEntry

Trait for extracting user input arguments for completion.

Dispatcher

Dispatches user input commands to specific ChainProcess

EnumTag

Marker trait for EnumTag

Groupped

Used to mark a type with a unique enum ID, assisting dynamic dispatch

HelpRequest

Handles help rendering for command-line arguments

ProgramCollect

Collected program context

Renderer

Takes over a type (Self::Previous) and converts it to a RenderResult

ResourceMarker

Resource marker trait, types that implement the Clone and Default traits can be considered as resources

Functions

get_nodes

Get all registered dispatcher names from the program

this

Returns a reference to the current program instance, panics if not set.

Derive Macros

EnumTag

derive macro EnumTag Derive macro for automatically implementing the EnumTag trait on an enum with unit-only variants.

Groupped

derive macro Groupped Derive macro for automatically implementing the Groupped trait on a struct.
