Boot-Banner

Boot-Banner is a Rust library that provides a simple way to display a banner when your application starts. It uses a procedural macro to inject banner-displaying code into your main function.

Features

• Easy to use: Just add a single attribute to your main function
• Customizable: Use your own banner text file
• Error-tolerant: Continues execution even if the banner file is not found

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
Boot-Banner = "0.1.0"

Usage

Create a banner.txt file in your project's root directory with your desired banner content. In your main.rs file, use the #[init] attribute on your main function:

use Boot_Banner::init;

#[init]
fn main() {
    // Your code here
    println!("Hello, world!");
}

How it works

The init attribute macro does the following:

• Attempts to read the banner.txt file from the current directory
• If successful, prints the banner content to the console
• If unsuccessful (e.g., file not found), prints an error message
• Executes the original function body

Error Handling

If the banner file cannot be read or doesn't exist, the library will print an error message but allow your application to continue running.
