src/lib.rs

//! Syn is a parsing library for parsing a stream of Rust tokens into a syntax
//! tree of Rust source code.
//!
//! Currently this library is geared toward use in Rust procedural macros, but
//! contains some APIs that may be useful more generally.
//!
//! - **Data structures** — Syn provides a complete syntax tree that can
//!   represent any valid Rust source code. The syntax tree is rooted at
//!   [`syn::File`] which represents a full source file, but there are other
//!   entry points that may be useful to procedural macros including
//!   [`syn::Item`], [`syn::Expr`] and [`syn::Type`].
//!
//! - **Custom derives** — Of particular interest to custom derives is
//!   [`syn::DeriveInput`] which is any of the three legal input items to a
//!   derive macro. An example below shows using this type in a library that can
//!   derive implementations of a trait of your own.
//!
//! - **Parsing** — Parsing in Syn is built around [parser functions] with the
//!   signature `fn(ParseStream) -> Result<T>`. Every syntax tree node defined
//!   by Syn is individually parsable and may be used as a building block for
//!   custom syntaxes, or you may dream up your own brand new syntax without
//!   involving any of our syntax tree types.
//!
//! - **Location information** — Every token parsed by Syn is associated with a
//!   `Span` that tracks line and column information back to the source of that
//!   token. These spans allow a procedural macro to display detailed error
//!   messages pointing to all the right places in the user's code. There is an
//!   example of this below.
//!
//! - **Feature flags** — Functionality is aggressively feature gated so your
//!   procedural macros enable only what they need, and do not pay in compile
//!   time for all the rest.
//!
//! [`syn::File`]: struct.File.html
//! [`syn::Item`]: enum.Item.html
//! [`syn::Expr`]: enum.Expr.html
//! [`syn::Type`]: enum.Type.html
//! [`syn::DeriveInput`]: struct.DeriveInput.html
//! [parser functions]: parse/index.html
//!
//! *Version requirement: Syn supports any compiler version back to Rust's very
//! first support for procedural macros in Rust 1.15.0. Some features especially
//! around error reporting are only available in newer compilers or on the
//! nightly channel.*
//!
//! ## Example of a custom derive
//!
//! The canonical custom derive using Syn looks like this. We write an ordinary
//! Rust function tagged with a `proc_macro_derive` attribute and the name of
//! the trait we are deriving. Any time that derive appears in the user's code,
//! the Rust compiler passes their data structure as tokens into our macro. We
//! get to execute arbitrary Rust code to figure out what to do with those
//! tokens, then hand some tokens back to the compiler to compile into the
//! user's crate.
//!
//! [`TokenStream`]: https://doc.rust-lang.org/proc_macro/struct.TokenStream.html
//!
//! ```toml
//! [dependencies]
//! syn = "0.15"
//! quote = "0.6"
//!
//! [lib]
//! proc-macro = true
//! ```
//!
//! ```edition2018
//! extern crate proc_macro;
//!
//! use proc_macro::TokenStream;
//! use quote::quote;
//! use syn::{parse_macro_input, DeriveInput};
//!
//! # const IGNORE_TOKENS: &str = stringify! {
//! #[proc_macro_derive(MyMacro)]
//! # };
//! pub fn my_macro(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
//!     // Parse the input tokens into a syntax tree
//!     let input = parse_macro_input!(input as DeriveInput);
//!
//!     // Build the output, possibly using quasi-quotation
//!     let expanded = quote! {
//!         // ...
//!     };
//!
//!     // Hand the output tokens back to the compiler
//!     TokenStream::from(expanded)
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The [`heapsize`] example directory shows a complete working Macros 1.1
//! implementation of a custom derive. It works on any Rust compiler 1.15+.
//! The example derives a `HeapSize` trait which computes an estimate of the
//! amount of heap memory owned by a value.
//!
//! [`heapsize`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/syn/tree/master/examples/heapsize
//!
//! ```edition2018
//! pub trait HeapSize {
//!     /// Total number of bytes of heap memory owned by `self`.
//!     fn heap_size_of_children(&self) -> usize;
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The custom derive allows users to write `#[derive(HeapSize)]` on data
//! structures in their program.
//!
//! ```edition2018
//! # const IGNORE_TOKENS: &str = stringify! {
//! #[derive(HeapSize)]
//! # };
//! struct Demo<'a, T: ?Sized> {
//!     a: Box<T>,
//!     b: u8,
//!     c: &'a str,
//!     d: String,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Spans and error reporting
//!
//! The token-based procedural macro API provides great control over where the
//! compiler's error messages are displayed in user code. Consider the error the
//! user sees if one of their field types does not implement `HeapSize`.
//!
//! ```edition2018
//! # const IGNORE_TOKENS: &str = stringify! {
//! #[derive(HeapSize)]
//! # };
//! struct Broken {
//!     ok: String,
//!     bad: std::thread::Thread,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! By tracking span information all the way through the expansion of a
//! procedural macro as shown in the `heapsize` example, token-based macros in
//! Syn are able to trigger errors that directly pinpoint the source of the
//! problem.
//!
//! ```text
//! error[E0277]: the trait bound `std::thread::Thread: HeapSize` is not satisfied
//!  --> src/main.rs:7:5
//!   |
//! 7 |     bad: std::thread::Thread,
//!   |     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the trait `HeapSize` is not implemented for `Thread`
//! ```
//!
//! ## Parsing a custom syntax
//!
//! The [`lazy-static`] example directory shows the implementation of a
//! `functionlike!(...)` procedural macro in which the input tokens are parsed
//! using Syn's parsing API.
//!
//! [`lazy-static`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/syn/tree/master/examples/lazy-static
//!
//! The example reimplements the popular `lazy_static` crate from crates.io as a
//! procedural macro.
//!
//! ```edition2018
//! # macro_rules! lazy_static {
//! #     ($($tt:tt)*) => {}
//! # }
//! #
//! lazy_static! {
//!     static ref USERNAME: Regex = Regex::new("^[a-z0-9_-]{3,16}$").unwrap();
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The implementation shows how to trigger custom warnings and error messages
//! on the macro input.
//!
//! ```text
//! warning: come on, pick a more creative name
//!   --> src/main.rs:10:16
//!    |
//! 10 |     static ref FOO: String = "lazy_static".to_owned();
//!    |                ^^^
//! ```
//!
//! ## Testing
//!
//! When testing macros, we often care not just that the macro can be used
//! successfully but also that when the macro is provided with invalid input it
//! produces maximally helpful error messages. Consider using the [`trybuild`]
//! crate to write tests for errors that are emitted by your macro or errors
//! detected by the Rust compiler in the expanded code following misuse of the
//! macro. Such tests help avoid regressions from later refactors that
//! mistakenly make an error no longer trigger or be less helpful than it used
//! to be.
//!
//! [`trybuild`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/trybuild
//!
//! ## Debugging
//!
//! When developing a procedural macro it can be helpful to look at what the
//! generated code looks like. Use `cargo rustc -- -Zunstable-options
//! --pretty=expanded` or the [`cargo expand`] subcommand.
//!
//! [`cargo expand`]: https://github.com/dtolnay/cargo-expand
//!
//! To show the expanded code for some crate that uses your procedural macro,
//! run `cargo expand` from that crate. To show the expanded code for one of
//! your own test cases, run `cargo expand --test the_test_case` where the last
//! argument is the name of the test file without the `.rs` extension.
//!
//! This write-up by Brandon W Maister discusses debugging in more detail:
//! [Debugging Rust's new Custom Derive system][debugging].
//!
//! [debugging]: https://quodlibetor.github.io/posts/debugging-rusts-new-custom-derive-system/
//!
//! ## Optional features
//!
//! Syn puts a lot of functionality behind optional features in order to
//! optimize compile time for the most common use cases. The following features
//! are available.
//!
//! - **`derive`** *(enabled by default)* — Data structures for representing the
//!   possible input to a custom derive, including structs and enums and types.
//! - **`full`** — Data structures for representing the syntax tree of all valid
//!   Rust source code, including items and expressions.
//! - **`parsing`** *(enabled by default)* — Ability to parse input tokens into
//!   a syntax tree node of a chosen type.
//! - **`printing`** *(enabled by default)* — Ability to print a syntax tree
//!   node as tokens of Rust source code.
//! - **`visit`** — Trait for traversing a syntax tree.
//! - **`visit-mut`** — Trait for traversing and mutating in place a syntax
//!   tree.
//! - **`fold`** — Trait for transforming an owned syntax tree.
//! - **`clone-impls`** *(enabled by default)* — Clone impls for all syntax tree
//!   types.
//! - **`extra-traits`** — Debug, Eq, PartialEq, Hash impls for all syntax tree
//!   types.
//! - **`proc-macro`** *(enabled by default)* — Runtime dependency on the
//!   dynamic library libproc_macro from rustc toolchain.

// Syn types in rustdoc of other crates get linked to here.

///
/// - It discards a leading byte order mark `\u{FEFF}` if the file has one.
