pseudonym 🕵️

Declare aliases for Rust constructs with ease!

[dependencies]
pseudonym = "0.2.0"

Usage

The following example will generate a function named short_name equal to very_long_function_name.

use pseudonym::alias;
#[alias(short_name)]
fn very_long_function_name() {
    // ...
}

fn main () {
    short_name(); // use the alias!
}

Deprecating Aliases

Sometimes, you'll need to create aliases to old functions which are deprecated. pseudonym allows you to deprecate aliases using the same syntax as deprecated.

use pseudonym::alias;
#[alias(
    deprecated(
        old_api_function,
        since = "0.1.0",
        note = "This function has been deprecated in favor of `new_api_function`"
    )
))]
fn new_api_function() {
    // ...
}

fn main () {
    short_name(); // use the alias!
}
