kozo provides some syntax sugars to use Rust's struct easily.
Current kozo provides following 2 proc macros:

  • define!
  • retrieve!


define!

define! macro enables to define nested structs in a way easy to see.

use kozo::define;

define!(struct NestedStruct {
    a: Vec<u8>,
    b: struct B {
        c: struct C {
            d: u8,
            e: u8,
        },
        f: enum F {
            X,
            Y,
            Other {
                name: String,
                id: usize
            },
        },
    },
});

fn main() {
    let sample = NestedStruct {
        a: vec![1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1],
        b: B {
            c: C {
                d: 0,
                e: 1,
            },
            f: F::X,
        },
    };

    println!("{}", sample.b.c.d);  // 0
}

( examples/define_sample.rs )


Then, define! is just a syntax sugar of defining each named structs separately like

struct DeepNestedStruct {
    a: Vec<u8>,
    b: B,
}
struct B {
    c: C,
    f: F,
}
struct C {
    d: u8,
    e: u8,
}
enum F {
    X,
    Y,
    Other {
        name: String,
        id: usize,
    },
}

So please pay attension to that all structs declared in define!(); are visible in its scope.



retrieve!

retrieve! enables to simply get more than 1 value from a struct:

use kozo::{define, retrieve};

define!(struct Sample {
    a: u8,
    b: struct B {
        c: String,
        d: Vec<u8>,
    },
});

fn main() {
    let s = Sample {
        a: 0,
        b: B {
            c: "I have an apple?".into(),
            d: vec![1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1],
        },
    };
    retrieve!(a, b from s);

    println!("{a}");  // 0,
    println!("{}", b.c);
}

( examples/retrieve_sample.rs )



NOTICEs

In next version (v0.2),

  • define! will be able to accept derives.
#[derive(Clone)]
define!(struct S {
    // ...
})
  • retrieve! will be able to get nested values directly like
let s = Sample {
    a: 0,
    b: B {
        c: "You have an apple!".into(),
        d: vec![1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1,],
    },
};
retrieve!(a, c(b), from s);

In future, retrieve! will support named retrieving:

let s = Sample {
    a: 0,
    b: B {
        c: "Is this an apple?".into(),
        d: vec![1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1,],
    },
};
retrieve!(var1 @ a, crazy_apple_man @ c(b), from s);

println!("{var1}");  // 0

for Japanese speakers...
"kozo" は「小僧」の発音で読んでください。struct「構造」と掛けたネーミングで、構造体に関する小さく便利な機能を提供するクレートという意味を込めています。
