Syn builder

Builder functions for syn structures and enums to ease the generation of Rust code.

Note: only syn structures are creating using the builder methods - there no intermediate structs to manage.

Usage

1. Add to your Cargo.toml file

[dependencies]
syn_builder = "0.2.0"

2. Import builder functions and create syn objects

use proc_macro2::TokenStream;
use quote::ToTokens;
use syn_builder::*;

fn main() {
    //generate code using the builder api
    let code = item_enum("my_enum").variants([
        variant("A").fields(
            fields_unamed([field(type_path("A")), field(type_path("B"))]),
        ),
        variant("B"),
        variant("C").fields(
            fields_named([
                field(type_path("A")).ident("other"),
                field(type_path("B")).ident("one"),
            ]),
        ),
    ]);

    let mut token_stream = TokenStream::new();
    code.to_tokens(&mut token_stream);

    println!("{token_stream}");
}

Alternatives

• quote - generate syn structs by writing Rust code and using variable interpolation
