Crate varlink_derive 

Macros for generating modules from a varlink interface definition

This crate provides two procedural macros for generating a Rust module out of an interface definition:

• The varlink! macro takes as argument the interface as a string literal.
• The varlink_file! macro takes as argument the path to the varlink interface definition relative to the directory containing the manifest of your package.

They have the drawback that most IDEs don’t execute this and thus offer no code completion.

Examples

use varlink_derive;
extern crate serde_derive;

varlink_derive::varlink!(org_example_ping, r#"
# Example service
interface org.example.ping

# Returns the same string
method Ping(ping: string) -> (pong: string)
"#);

use org_example_ping::VarlinkClientInterface;
/* ... */

use varlink_derive;
extern crate serde_derive;

varlink_derive::varlink_file!(
   org_example_network,
   "../examples/example/src/org.example.network.varlink"
);

use org_example_network::VarlinkClientInterface;
/* ... */
