Crate derive_utils

Expand description

A procedural macro helper for easily writing derives macros for enums.

§Examples

quick_derive! macro make easy to write proc_macro_derive like deriving trait to enum so long as all variants are implemented that trait.

use derive_utils::quick_derive;
use proc_macro::TokenStream;

#[proc_macro_derive(Iterator)]
pub fn derive_iterator(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
    quick_derive! {
        input,
        // trait path
        std::iter::Iterator,
        // trait definition
        trait Iterator {
            type Item;
            fn next(&mut self) -> Option<Self::Item>;
            fn size_hint(&self) -> (usize, Option<usize>);
        }
    }
}

#[proc_macro_derive(ExactSizeIterator)]
pub fn derive_exact_size_iterator(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
    quick_derive! {
        input,
        // trait path
        std::iter::ExactSizeIterator,
        // super trait's associated types
        <Item>,
        // trait definition
        trait ExactSizeIterator: Iterator {
            fn len(&self) -> usize;
        }
    }
}

§Generated code

When deriving for enum like the following:

#[derive(Iterator, ExactSizeIterator, Future)]
enum Enum<A, B> {
    A(A),
    B(B),
}

Code like this will be generated:

enum Enum<A, B> {
    A(A),
    B(B),
}

impl<A, B> std::iter::Iterator for Enum<A, B>
where
    A: std::iter::Iterator,
    B: std::iter::Iterator<Item = <A as std::iter::Iterator>::Item>,
{
    type Item = <A as std::iter::Iterator>::Item;
    fn next(&mut self) -> Option<Self::Item> {
        match self {
            Enum::A(x) => x.next(),
            Enum::B(x) => x.next(),
        }
    }
    fn size_hint(&self) -> (usize, Option<usize>) {
        match self {
            Enum::A(x) => x.size_hint(),
            Enum::B(x) => x.size_hint(),
        }
    }
}

impl<A, B> std::iter::ExactSizeIterator for Enum<A, B>
where
    A: std::iter::ExactSizeIterator,
    B: std::iter::ExactSizeIterator<Item = <A as Iterator>::Item>,
{
    fn len(&self) -> usize {
        match self {
            Enum::A(x) => x.len(),
            Enum::B(x) => x.len(),
        }
    }
}

auto_enums: A library for to allow multiple return types by automatically generated enum.
io-enum: #[derive(Read, Write, Seek, BufRead)] for enums.
iter-enum: #[derive(Iterator, DoubleEndedIterator, ExactSizeIterator, FusedIterator, Extend)] for enums.
