9//! Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a syntax
10//! tree of Rust source code.
11//!
12//! Currently this library is geared toward the [custom derive] use case but
13//! contains some APIs that may be useful for Rust procedural macros more
14//! generally.
15//!
16//! [custom derive]: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1681-macros-1.1.md
17//!
18//! - **Data structures** — Syn provides a complete syntax tree that can
19//!   represent any valid Rust source code. The syntax tree is rooted at
20//!   [`syn::File`] which represents a full source file, but there are other
21//!   entry points that may be useful to procedural macros including
22//!   [`syn::Item`], [`syn::Expr`] and [`syn::Type`].
23//!
24//! - **Custom derives** — Of particular interest to custom derives is
25//!   [`syn::DeriveInput`] which is any of the three legal input items to a
26//!   derive macro. An example below shows using this type in a library that can
27//!   derive implementations of a trait of your own.
28//!
29//! - **Parser combinators** — Parsing in Syn is built on a suite of public
30//!   parser combinator macros that you can use for parsing any token-based
31//!   syntax you dream up within a `functionlike!(...)` procedural macro. Every
32//!   syntax tree node defined by Syn is individually parsable and may be used
33//!   as a building block for custom syntaxes, or you may do it all yourself
34//!   working from the most primitive tokens.
35//!
36//! - **Location information** — Every token parsed by Syn is associated with a
37//!   `Span` that tracks line and column information back to the source of that
38//!   token. These spans allow a procedural macro to display detailed error
39//!   messages pointing to all the right places in the user's code. There is an
40//!   example of this below.
41//!
42//! - **Feature flags** — Functionality is aggressively feature gated so your
43//!   procedural macros enable only what they need, and do not pay in compile
44//!   time for all the rest.
45//!
46//! [`syn::File`]: struct.File.html
47//! [`syn::Item`]: enum.Item.html
48//! [`syn::Expr`]: enum.Expr.html
49//! [`syn::Type`]: enum.Type.html
50//! [`syn::DeriveInput`]: struct.DeriveInput.html
51//!
52//! *Version requirement: Syn supports any compiler version back to Rust's very
53//! first support for procedural macros in Rust 1.15.0. Some features especially
54//! around error reporting are only available in newer compilers or on the
55//! nightly channel.*
56//!
57//! ## Example of a custom derive
58//!
59//! The canonical custom derive using Syn looks like this. We write an ordinary
60//! Rust function tagged with a `proc_macro_derive` attribute and the name of
61//! the trait we are deriving. Any time that derive appears in the user's code,
62//! the Rust compiler passes their data structure as tokens into our macro. We
63//! get to execute arbitrary Rust code to figure out what to do with those
64//! tokens, then hand some tokens back to the compiler to compile into the
65//! user's crate.
66//!
67//! [`TokenStream`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/proc_macro/struct.TokenStream.html
68//!
69//! ```toml
70//! [dependencies]
71//! syn = "0.12"
72//! quote = "0.4"
73//!
74//! [lib]
75//! proc-macro = true
76//! ```
77//!
78//! ```rust
79//! extern crate proc_macro;
80//! extern crate syn;
81//!
82//! #[macro_use]
83//! extern crate quote;
84//!
85//! use proc_macro::TokenStream;
86//! use syn::DeriveInput;
87//!
88//! # const IGNORE_TOKENS: &str = stringify! {
89//! #[proc_macro_derive(MyMacro)]
90//! # };
91//! pub fn my_macro(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
92//!     // Parse the input tokens into a syntax tree
93//!     let input: DeriveInput = syn::parse(input).unwrap();
94//!
95//!     // Build the output, possibly using quasi-quotation
96//!     let expanded = quote! {
97//!         // ...
98//!     };
99//!
100//!     // Hand the output tokens back to the compiler
101//!     expanded.into()
102//! }
103//! #
104//! # fn main() {}
105//! ```
106//!
107//! The [`heapsize`] example directory shows a complete working Macros 1.1
108//! implementation of a custom derive. It works on any Rust compiler \>=1.15.0.
109//! The example derives a `HeapSize` trait which computes an estimate of the
110//! amount of heap memory owned by a value.
111//!
112//! [`heapsize`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/syn/tree/master/examples/heapsize
113//!
114//! ```rust
115//! pub trait HeapSize {
116//!     /// Total number of bytes of heap memory owned by `self`.
117//!     fn heap_size_of_children(&self) -> usize;
118//! }
119//! ```
120//!
121//! The custom derive allows users to write `#[derive(HeapSize)]` on data
122//! structures in their program.
123//!
124//! ```rust
125//! # const IGNORE_TOKENS: &str = stringify! {
126//! #[derive(HeapSize)]
127//! # };
128//! struct Demo<'a, T: ?Sized> {
129//!     a: Box<T>,
130//!     b: u8,
131//!     c: &'a str,
132//!     d: String,
133//! }
134//! ```
135//!
136//! ## Spans and error reporting
137//!
138//! The [`heapsize2`] example directory is an extension of the `heapsize`
139//! example that demonstrates some of the hygiene and error reporting properties
140//! of Macros 2.0. This example currently requires a nightly Rust compiler
141//! \>=1.24.0-nightly but we are working to stabilize all of the APIs involved.
142//!
143//! [`heapsize2`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/syn/tree/master/examples/heapsize2
144//!
145//! The token-based procedural macro API provides great control over where the
146//! compiler's error messages are displayed in user code. Consider the error the
147//! user sees if one of their field types does not implement `HeapSize`.
148//!
149//! ```rust
150//! # const IGNORE_TOKENS: &str = stringify! {
151//! #[derive(HeapSize)]
152//! # };
153//! struct Broken {
154//!     ok: String,
155//!     bad: std::thread::Thread,
156//! }
157//! ```
158//!
159//! In the Macros 1.1 string-based procedural macro world, the resulting error
160//! would point unhelpfully to the invocation of the derive macro and not to the
161//! actual problematic field.
162//!
163//! ```text
164//! error[E0599]: no method named `heap_size_of_children` found for type `std::thread::Thread` in the current scope
165//!  --> src/main.rs:4:10
166//!   |
167//! 4 | #[derive(HeapSize)]
168//!   |          ^^^^^^^^
169//! ```
170//!
171//! By tracking span information all the way through the expansion of a
172//! procedural macro as shown in the `heapsize2` example, token-based macros in
173//! Syn are able to trigger errors that directly pinpoint the source of the
174//! problem.
175//!
176//! ```text
177//! error[E0277]: the trait bound `std::thread::Thread: HeapSize` is not satisfied
178//!  --> src/main.rs:7:5
179//!   |
180//! 7 |     bad: std::thread::Thread,
181//!   |     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the trait `HeapSize` is not implemented for `Thread`
182//! ```
183//!
184//! ## Parsing a custom syntax using combinators
185//!
186//! The [`lazy-static`] example directory shows the implementation of a
187//! `functionlike!(...)` procedural macro in which the input tokens are parsed
188//! using [`nom`]-style parser combinators.
189//!
190//! [`lazy-static`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/syn/tree/master/examples/lazy-static
191//! [`nom`]: https://github.com/Geal/nom
192//!
193//! The example reimplements the popular `lazy_static` crate from crates.io as a
194//! procedural macro.
195//!
196//! ```
197//! # macro_rules! lazy_static {
198//! #     ($($tt:tt)*) => {}
199//! # }
200//! #
201//! lazy_static! {
202//!     static ref USERNAME: Regex = Regex::new("^[a-z0-9_-]{3,16}$").unwrap();
203//! }
204//! ```
205//!
206//! The implementation shows how to trigger custom warnings and error messages
207//! on the macro input.
208//!
209//! ```text
210//! warning: come on, pick a more creative name
211//!   --> src/main.rs:10:16
212//!    |
213//! 10 |     static ref FOO: String = "lazy_static".to_owned();
214//!    |                ^^^
215//! ```
216//!
217//! ## Debugging
218//!
219//! When developing a procedural macro it can be helpful to look at what the
220//! generated code looks like. Use `cargo rustc -- -Zunstable-options
221//! --pretty=expanded` or the [`cargo expand`] subcommand.
222//!
223//! [`cargo expand`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/cargo-expand
224//!
225//! To show the expanded code for some crate that uses your procedural macro,
226//! run `cargo expand` from that crate. To show the expanded code for one of
227//! your own test cases, run `cargo expand --test the_test_case` where the last
228//! argument is the name of the test file without the `.rs` extension.
229//!
230//! This write-up by Brandon W Maister discusses debugging in more detail:
231//! [Debugging Rust's new Custom Derive system][debugging].
232//!

234//!
235//! ## Optional features
236//!
237//! Syn puts a lot of functionality behind optional features in order to
238//! optimize compile time for the most common use cases. The following features
239//! are available.
240//!
241//! - **`derive`** *(enabled by default)* — Data structures for representing the
242//!   possible input to a custom derive, including structs and enums and types.
243//! - **`full`** — Data structures for representing the syntax tree of all valid
244//!   Rust source code, including items and expressions.
245//! - **`parsing`** *(enabled by default)* — Ability to parse input tokens into
246//!   a syntax tree node of a chosen type.
247//! - **`printing`** *(enabled by default)* — Ability to print a syntax tree
248//!   node as tokens of Rust source code.
249//! - **`visit`** — Trait for traversing a syntax tree.
250//! - **`visit-mut`** — Trait for traversing and mutating in place a syntax
251//!   tree.
252//! - **`fold`** — Trait for transforming an owned syntax tree.
253//! - **`clone-impls`** *(enabled by default)* — Clone impls for all syntax tree
254//!   types.
255//! - **`extra-traits`** — Debug, Eq, PartialEq, Hash impls for all syntax tree
256//!   types.
