Usage

Create folder with static resources in your project (for example static):

bash cd project_dir mkdir static echo "Hello, world" > static/hello

Add to Cargo.toml dependency to static-files:

```toml [dependencies] static-files = "0.1"

[build-dependencies] static-files = "0.1" ```

Add build.rs with call to bundle resources:

```rust#ignore use staticfiles::resourcedir;

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { resource_dir("./static").build()?; } ```

Include generated code in main.rs:

```rust#ignore include!(concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/generated.rs"));

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { let generated = generate(); // <-- this function is defined in generated.rs ... } ```
