Macro validate_index 

validate_index!() { /* proc-macro */ }

Validates an index file and all templates it references at compile time.

This macro parses the index file, extracts all template file names from the Template column, and validates each template during compilation. If the index file is invalid or any referenced template is invalid, a compile error is emitted.

Arguments

• path - A string literal path to the index file, relative to the calling crate’s Cargo.toml directory. The templates are expected to be in the same directory as the index file.

Example

use textfsm_macros::validate_index;

// Validate index and all referenced templates
validate_index!("templates/index");

Compile-time Errors

If the index or any template is invalid, you’ll see a compile error like:

error: Index validation failed for 'templates/index':
       Template 'cisco_show_version.textfsm' (line 3): invalid rule at line 5
