devbox

A collection of small build related librarires intended to be used as dev-dependencies

Install

To get started, add the following to Cargo.toml under dev-dependencies: toml [dev-dependencies] devbox = { version = "0.1" }

Test macro

Adds parametrization capabilty to #[test] via #[args] attribute macro.

```rust

[args(

char_a: 'a';
char_b: 'b' ! "unexpected character";

)]

[test]

fn parametrizedtestfor(character:) { asserteq!('a', character, "unexpected character"); } ```

Check [#[args]] attribute for full example and usage specification.

Build srcipt

Small utility library for easier file manipulation and external tool invocation in Rust build sripts (build.rs) that avoids rebuilding up-to-date build artifacts.

```rust

pub fn main() {

let build = Build::new();
let websrc = build.manifest_dir().dir("webapp");
let webwrk = build.out_dir().dir("webapp_build");
let webwrk_pkg = webwrk.file("package.json");
let webwrk_pkl = webwrk.file("package-lock.json");

for unit in websrc.content("*") {
    unit.link_from_inside(&webwrk);
}

let npm = Cmd::new("npm").arg("--prefix").arg(webwrk.path());

webwrk.dir("node_modules").mk_from("Install WebApp node packages", &webwrk_pkg + &webwrk_pkl, ||{
    npm.clone().arg("install").run();
    webwrk.dir("node_modules").touch();
});

webwrk.dir("dist").mk_from("Build WebApp using webpack", &webwrk.content("**"), || {
    npm.clone().arg("run").arg("build").run();
    webwrk.dir("dist").touch();
});

} ```
