enum-const

Assign constant literals to enum arms in Rust! What fun!

use thisenum::Const;
 
#[derive(Const, Debug)]
#[armtype(&[u8])]
/// https://exiftool.org/TagNames/EXIF.html
enum ExifTag {
    // ...
    #[value = b"\x01\x00"]
    ImageWidth,
    #[value = b"\x01\x01"]
    ImageHeight,
    #[value = b"\x01\x02"]
    BitsPerSamole,
    #[value = b"\x01\x03"]
    Compression,
    #[value = b"\x01\x06"]
    PhotometricInterpretation,
    // ...
}
 
assert_eq!(ExifTag::ImageWidth.value(), b"\x01\x00");
assert_eq!(ExifTag::ImageWidth, b"\x01\x00");

If each arm is a different type, this is still possible using ConstEach:

use thisenum::ConstEach;
 
#[derive(ConstEach, Debug)]
enum CustomEnum {
    #[armtype(&[u8])]
    #[value = b"\x01\x00"]
    A,
    // `armtype` is not required, type is inferred
    #[value = "foo"]
    B,
    #[armtype(f32)]
    #[value = 3.14]
    C,
}
 
assert_eq!(CustomEnum::A.value::<&[u8]>().unwrap(), b"\x01\x00");
assert!(CustomEnum::B.value::<&str>().is_some());
assert_eq!(CustomEnum::B.value::<&str>().unwrap(), &"foo");
assert_eq!(CustomEnum::B.value::<&str>(), Some("foo").as_ref());
assert_eq!(CustomEnum::C.value::<f32>().unwrap(), 3.14);
// or on failure
assert!(CustomEnum::C.value::<i32>().is_none());
