Module :: variadic_from
The variadic from is designed to provide a way to implement the From-like traits for structs with a variable number of fields, allowing them to be constructed from tuples of different lengths or from individual arguments. This functionality is particularly useful for creating flexible constructors that enable different methods of instantiation for a struct. By automating the implementation of traits crate reduces boilerplate code and enhances code readability and maintainability.
Currently it support up to 3 arguments. If your structure has more than 3 fields derive generates nothing. Also it supports tuple conversion, allowing structs to be instantiated from tuples by leveraging the From
and Into
traits for seamless conversion.
Basic use-case.
This example demonstrates the use of the variadic_from
macro to implement flexible
constructors for a struct, allowing it to be instantiated from different numbers of
arguments or tuples. It also showcases how to derive common traits like Debug
,
PartialEq
, Default
, and VariadicFrom
for the struct.

// Define a struct `MyStruct` with fields `a` and `b`.
// The struct derives common traits like `Debug`, `PartialEq`, `Default`, and `VariadicFrom`.

{
a : i32,
b : i32,
}
// Implement the `From1` trait for `MyStruct`, which allows constructing a `MyStruct` instance
// from a single `i32` value by assigning it to both `a` and `b` fields.
