<!--{ generate.module_header.end }-->
Protocol of modularity unifying interface of a module and introducing layers.
### Basic use-case
Library file with code `inner.rs`:
```rust ignore
pub( crate ) mod private
{
/// Routine of inner module.
pub fn inner_is() -> bool
{
true
}
}
//
mod_interface::mod_interface!
{
prelude use inner_is;
}
```
Main file that generates modules and namespaces `main.rs` :
```rust ignore
use mod_interface::mod_interface;
//
fn main()
{
assert_eq!( prelude::inner_is(), inner::prelude::inner_is() );
}
//
mod_interface::mod_interface!
{
/// Inner.
layer inner;
}
```
It generates code :
```rust
use mod_interface::mod_interface;
//
fn main()
{
assert_eq!( prelude::inner_is(), inner::prelude::inner_is() );
}
//
/// Inner.
pub mod inner
{
pub( crate ) mod private
{
/// Routine of inner module.
pub fn inner_is() -> bool { true }
}
/// Protected namespace of the module.
pub mod protected
{
pub use super::orphan::*;
}
pub use protected::*;
/// Orphan namespace of the module.
pub mod orphan
{
pub use super::exposed::*;
}
/// Exposed namespace of the module.
pub mod exposed
{
pub use super::prelude::*;
}
/// Prelude to use essentials: `use my_module::prelude::*`.
pub mod prelude
{
pub use super::private::inner_is;
}
}
/// Protected namespace of the module.
pub mod protected
{
pub use super::orphan::*;
pub use super::inner::orphan::*;
}
pub use protected::*;
/// Orphan namespace of the module.
pub mod orphan
{
pub use super::exposed::*;
}
/// Exposed namespace of the module.
#[ allow( unused_imports ) ]
pub mod exposed
{
use super::*;
pub use super::prelude::*;
pub use super::inner::exposed::*;
}
/// Prelude to use essentials: `use my_module::prelude::*`.
pub mod prelude
{
pub use super::inner::prelude::*;
}
```
### Debugging
To debug module interface use directive `#![ debug ]` in macro `mod_interface`. Let's update the main file of the example :
```rust ignore
mod_interface::mod_interface!
{
#![ debug ]
/// Inner.
layer inner;
}
```
