# text-tags
A lightweight Rust crate for parsing text-tags.
## Features
* **Uniform tag syntax**: `[tag arg1 arg2=val2 ...]content[/tag]`
* **Implicit first argument**: The first value (e.g. font name, hex color, atlas index) may be
written without a key.
* **Named arguments**: Any additional arguments use `key=value` form.
* **Strong types**: Supports ints, floats, bools, hex colors, keywords, and quoted strings.
* **Nested tags**: Tags can wrap content and nest arbitrarily.
## Syntax Overview
### Basic tags
```text
[b]Bold text[/b]
[i]Italic text[/i]
```
### Implicit first argument
* Example Font: `[font Arial size=24]Text[/font]` -> `font` name is `"Arial"`
* Example Color: `[color #ff00aa a=0.8]Colored[/color]` -> hex `#ff00aa`, alpha `0.8`
* Example Sprite: `[sprite 3 index=5]` -> atlas `3`, `index=5`
### Named arguments
```text
[font name="Comic Sans" size=20 weight=700]
[color r=1.0 g=0.2 b=0.2]
```
### Argument types
* **Int**: `val=42`
* **Float**: `pi=3.14`
* **Bool**: `enabled=true`
* **Hex**: `color=#aabbcc`
* **Keyword**: `mode=wrap`
* **String**: `label="Hello World"`
## Examples
```text
This is [font Arial size=18]rendered[/font] with [color #00ff00]green[/color] text,
and an icon: [sprite atlas=1 index=2].
```
## Usage
in Cargo.toml:
```toml
[dependencies]
text-tags = "0.1.0"
```
