🏗️ How It Works: v3 Macro Architecture

`#[derive(SwiftField)]` - Enhanced Field Generation

The v3 macro system provides compile-time validation and automatic implementation generation:

use swift_mt_message::SwiftField;

#[derive(SwiftField)]
#[format("4!c")] // SWIFT format specification with compile-time validation
pub struct Field23B {
    #[format("4!c")]
    pub bank_operation_code: String,
}

// The v3 macro automatically generates:
// - Format-aware parsing with SWIFT CBPR+ compliance
// - Smart serialization with proper field formatting
// - Comprehensive validation with detailed error contexts
// - Sample generation for testing
// - Serde traits with clean JSON output

`#[derive(SwiftMessage)]` - Sequence-Aware Message Composition

The v3 system supports complex multi-sequence messages with automatic field ordering:

use swift_mt_message::{SwiftMessage, swift_serde};

#[derive(SwiftMessage)]
#[swift_serde(rename_all = "FIELD_TAGS")] 
pub struct MT103 {
    #[field("20")]
    pub transaction_reference: Field20,
    
    #[field("23B")]
    pub bank_operation_code: Field23B,
    
    #[field("32A")]
    pub value_date_currency_amount: Field32A,
    
    // Optional fields with CBPR+ validation
    #[field("77T", optional)]
    pub envelope_contents: Option<Field77T>,
}

// The v3 macro provides:
// - Sequence-aware parsing for complex messages (MT104, MT107)
// - CBPR+ compliance validation
// - Error collection in permissive mode
// - Deterministic field ordering
// - Clean JSON serialization without enum wrappers

🎯 `serde`-like Serialization

The library's serde-like design makes it easy to serialize parsed SWIFT messages to JSON.

use serde_json;
use swift_mt_message::{SwiftParser, SwiftMessage, messages::MT103};

// Parse a raw SWIFT message
let mt103: SwiftMessage<MT103> = SwiftParser::parse(raw_swift_message)?;

// Automatically serialize to a clean JSON structure
let json = serde_json::to_string_pretty(&mt103)?;

Example JSON Output:

{
  "message_type": "103",
  "fields": {
    "20": {
      "transaction_reference": "FT21234567890"
    },
    "23B": {
      "bank_operation_code": "CRED"
    },
    "32A": {
      "date": "2021-03-15",
      "currency_code": "EUR",
      "amount": 1234567.89
    }
  }
}

Complex fields, like enums with different option structures (e.g., Field50 with options A, F, or K), are flattened for a cleaner JSON output.

🔧 Installation

Add swift-mt-message to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
swift-mt-message = "3.0.0"

📖 Usage

Basic Parsing

use swift_mt_message::{SwiftParser, SwiftMessage, messages::MT103};

let raw_mt103 = r#"{1:F01BANKDEFF0123456789}{2:I103BANKDEFFAXXXU3003}{4:
:20:FT21234567890
:23B:CRED
:32A:210315EUR1234567,89

-}"#;

match SwiftParser::parse::<MT103>(raw_mt103) {
    Ok(parsed) => {
        let json = serde_json::to_string_pretty(&parsed).unwrap();
        println!("Parsed Message:\n{}", json);
    }
    Err(e) => {
        // Rich error reporting
        eprintln!("Parse error: {}", e.brief_message());
        eprintln!("\nDetails:\n{}", e.debug_report());
        eprintln!("\n{}", e.format_with_context(raw_mt103));
    }
}

Error Collection Mode (v3.0)

Instead of failing on the first error, you can configure the parser to collect all errors. This is useful for processing messages that may have non-critical issues.

use swift_mt_message::{SwiftParser, ParseResult, ParserConfig, messages::MT103};

// Configure the parser to collect all errors
let parser = SwiftParser::with_config(ParserConfig {
    fail_fast: false,
    collect_all_errors: true,
    ..Default::default()
});

match parser.parse_with_errors::<MT103>(raw_message_with_errors) {
    Ok(ParseResult::Success(msg)) => {
        println!("✓ Message parsed successfully");
    }
    Ok(ParseResult::PartialSuccess(msg, errors)) => {
        println!("⚠ Parsed with {} non-critical errors", errors.len());
        // You can still work with the valid parts of the message
        // for error in errors { ... }
    }
    Ok(ParseResult::Failure(errors)) => {
        println!("✗ Failed with {} errors:", errors.len());
        // for error in errors { ... }
    }
    Err(e) => eprintln!("Unexpected error: {}", e),
}
