Macro name

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

Generate a new type for a string

The name! macro generates a new type that is backed by a String. The new type implements common traits like Display and From<&str> and From<String>. The inner value can be accessed using the get method.

Example

use typed_fields::name;

// Define a new type that is backed by a `String`
name!(Login);

// Create a new `UserId` from a `&str`
let id = Login::new("jdno");

// Common traits like `Display` are automatically implemented for the type
println!("Login: {}", id);
