Provides a new type called Named Tups that can be called using the [tup!
] macro. Named Tups are structs that can
contain a set of named arguments, effectively they work like normal tuples that can be accessed and created using an
actual name.
The idea of named tuples is to provide a way to quickly iterate on ideas without having to create a builder struct or losing the ability to type check at compile time. Named tuples also allow the creation of default values that can replace nonexistent arguments.
```toml [dependencies] named-tup = "0.1.0"
[package.metadata.inwelling] named-tup-derive = true ```
```rust use named_tup::tup; let count = 5;
// This will have the type of tup!(count: i32, ingredients: [&str; 3], eggs: bool) let cakes = tup!(count, ingredients: ["milk", "flower", "sugar"], eggs: true);
// We can just add a price afterwards let mut cakes = cakes + tup!(price: 3); // And now it has the type of tup!(eggs: bool, ingredients: [&str; 3], count: i32, price: i32)
// Once the price is in the tup we can just update it! cakes.price = 4;
// Will print tup { count: 5, eggs: true, ingredients: ["milk", "flower", "sugar"], price: 4 } println!("{cakes:?}"); ```
To use defaults just annotate the item where you set a field
with #[tup_default]
. Additionally since the
defaulted [tup!
] is a type you need to convert into it by calling [.into_tup()
] which can be accessed through
the [TupInto
] trait.
```rust use namedtup::{tup, tupdefault, TupInto};
let options = tup!(read: false, write: true);
// Converts to tup!(read: false, write: true, create: false, timeout: 5) openfile("main.rs", options.intotup());
fn open_file( path: &str, options: tup!( read: bool = true, write: bool = false, create: bool = false, timeout: i32 = 5 )) { // Open the file } ```
