From<docs>
This library provides a convenient derive macro for the standard library's
[core::fmt::Display
] trait.

[dependencies]
displaydoc = "0.2"
Compiler support: requires rustc 1.31+
```rust use std::io; use displaydoc::Display; use thiserror::Error;
pub enum DataStoreError {
/// data store disconnected
Disconnect(#[source] io::Error),
/// the data for key {0}
is not available
Redaction(String),
/// invalid header (expected {expected:?}, found {found:?})
InvalidHeader {
expected: String,
found: String,
},
/// unknown data store error
Unknown,
}
```
A Display
impl is generated for your type if you provide doc comment
messages on the struct or each variant of your enum, as shown above in the
example.
The messages support a shorthand for interpolating fields from the error.
/// {var}
⟶ write!("{}", self.var)
/// {0}
⟶ write!("{}", self.0)
/// {var:?}
⟶ write!("{:?}", self.var)
/// {0:?}
⟶ write!("{:?}", self.0)
Two optional attributes can be added to your types next to the derive:
#[ignore_extra_doc_attributes]
makes the macro ignore any doc
comment attributes (or ///
lines) after the first. Multi-line
comments using ///
are otherwise treated as an error, so use this
attribute or consider switching to block doc comments (/** */
).
#[prefix_enum_doc_attributes]
combines the doc comment message on
your enum itself with the messages for each variant, in the format
“enum: variant”. When added to an enum, the doc comment on the enum
becomes mandatory. When added to any other type, it has no effect.
In case you want to have an independent doc comment, the
#[displaydoc("...")
atrribute may be used on the variant or struct to
override it.
Is this crate no_std
compatible?
core::fmt::Display
trait not the std::fmt::Display
trait so it should work in std
and no_std
environments. Just add default-features = false
.Does this crate work with Path
and PathBuf
via the Display
trait?
Path
and PathBuf
and when either of these types are found it calls self.display()
to get a std::path::Display<'_>
type which can be used with the Display format specifier!Licensed under either of Apache License, Version 2.0 or MIT license at your option.
