3 | //! ## Attributes on Enums |
4 | //! |
5 | //! Strum supports several custom attributes to modify the generated code. At the enum level, the following attributes are supported: |
6 | //! |
7 | //! - `#[strum(serialize_all = "case_style")]` attribute can be used to change the case used when serializing to and deserializing |
8 | //! from strings. This feature is enabled by [withoutboats/heck](https://github.com/withoutboats/heck) and supported case styles are: |
9 | //! |
10 | //! - `camelCase` |
11 | //! - `PascalCase` |
12 | //! - `kebab-case` |
13 | //! - `snake_case` |
14 | //! - `SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE` |
15 | //! - `SCREAMING-KEBAB-CASE` |
16 | //! - `lowercase` |
17 | //! - `UPPERCASE` |
18 | //! - `title_case` |
19 | //! - `mixed_case` |
20 | //! - `Train-Case` |
21 | //! |
22 | //! ```rust |
23 | //! use strum_macros; |
24 | //! |
25 | //! #[derive(Debug, Eq, PartialEq, strum_macros::Display)] |
26 | //! #[strum(serialize_all = "snake_case" )] |
27 | //! enum Brightness { |
28 | //! DarkBlack, |
29 | //! Dim { |
30 | //! glow: usize, |
31 | //! }, |
32 | //! #[strum(serialize = "bright" )] |
33 | //! BrightWhite, |
34 | //! } |
35 | //! |
36 | //! assert_eq!( |
37 | //! String::from("dark_black" ), |
38 | //! Brightness::DarkBlack.to_string().as_ref() |
39 | //! ); |
40 | //! assert_eq!( |
41 | //! String::from("dim" ), |
42 | //! Brightness::Dim { glow: 0 }.to_string().as_ref() |
43 | //! ); |
44 | //! assert_eq!( |
45 | //! String::from("bright" ), |
46 | //! Brightness::BrightWhite.to_string().as_ref() |
47 | //! ); |
48 | //! ``` |
49 | //! |
50 | //! - You can also apply the `#[strum(ascii_case_insensitive)]` attribute to the enum, |
51 | //! and this has the same effect of applying it to every variant. |
52 | //! |
53 | //! ## Attributes on Variants |
54 | //! |
55 | //! Custom attributes are applied to a variant by adding `#[strum(parameter="value")]` to the variant. |
56 | //! |
57 | //! - `serialize="..."`: Changes the text that `FromStr()` looks for when parsing a string. This attribute can |
58 | //! be applied multiple times to an element and the enum variant will be parsed if any of them match. |
59 | //! |
60 | //! - `to_string="..."`: Similar to `serialize`. This value will be included when using `FromStr()`. More importantly, |
61 | //! this specifies what text to use when calling `variant.to_string()` with the `Display` derivation, or when calling `variant.as_ref()` with `AsRefStr`. |
62 | //! |
63 | //! - `default`: Applied to a single variant of an enum. The variant must be a Tuple-like |
64 | //! variant with a single piece of data that can be create from a `&str` i.e. `T: From<&str>`. |
65 | //! The generated code will now return the variant with the input string captured as shown below |
66 | //! instead of failing. |
67 | //! |
68 | //! ```text |
69 | //! // Replaces this: |
70 | //! _ => Err(strum::ParseError::VariantNotFound) |
71 | //! // With this in generated code: |
72 | //! default => Ok(Variant(default.into())) |
73 | //! ``` |
74 | //! The plugin will fail if the data doesn't implement From<&str>. You can only have one `default` |
75 | //! on your enum. |
76 | //! |
77 | //! - `disabled`: removes variant from generated code. |
78 | //! |
79 | //! - `ascii_case_insensitive`: makes the comparison to this variant case insensitive (ASCII only). |
80 | //! If the whole enum is marked `ascii_case_insensitive`, you can specify `ascii_case_insensitive = false` |
81 | //! to disable case insensitivity on this v ariant. |
82 | //! |
83 | //! - `message=".."`: Adds a message to enum variant. This is used in conjunction with the `EnumMessage` |
84 | //! trait to associate a message with a variant. If `detailed_message` is not provided, |
85 | //! then `message` will also be returned when `get_detailed_message` is called. |
86 | //! |
87 | //! - `detailed_message=".."`: Adds a more detailed message to a variant. If this value is omitted, then |
88 | //! `message` will be used in it's place. |
89 | //! |
90 | //! - Structured documentation, as in `/// ...`: If using `EnumMessage`, is accessible via get_documentation(). |
91 | //! |
92 | //! - `props(key="value")`: Enables associating additional information with a given variant. |
