Strum is a set of macros and traits for working with enums and strings easier in Rust.
# Compatibility
Strum is compatible with versions of rustc >= 1.31.0. That's the earliest version of stable rust that supports
impl trait. Pull Requests that improve compatibility with older versions are welcome, but new feature work
will focus on the current version of rust with an effort to avoid breaking compatibility with older versions.
# Including Strum in Your Project
Import strum and strum_macros into your project by adding the following lines to your
Cargo.toml. Strum_macros contains the macros needed to derive all the traits in Strum.
```toml
[dependencies]
strum = "0.19"
strum_macros = "0.19"
```
# Strum Macros
Strum has implemented the following macros:
| Macro | Description |
| --- | ----------- |
| [EnumString] | Converts strings to enum variants based on their name |
| [Display] | Converts enum variants to strings |
| [AsRefStr] | Converts enum variants to `&'static str` |
| [IntoStaticStr] | Implements `From<MyEnum> for &'static str` on an enum |
2019-12-20 00:18:17 +01:00
| [EnumVariantNames] | Adds an associated `VARIANTS` constant which is an array of discriminant names |
| [EnumIter] | Creates a new type that iterates of the variants of an enum. |
| [EnumProperty] | Add custom properties to enum variants. |
| [EnumMessage] | Add a verbose message to an enum variant. |
| [EnumDiscriminants] | Generate a new type with only the discriminant names. |
| [EnumCount] | Add a constant `usize` equal to the number of variants. |

# Contributing
Thanks for your interest in contributing. The project is divided into 3 parts, the traits are in the
`/strum` folder. The procedural macros are in the `/strum_macros` folder, and the integration tests are
in `/strum_tests`. If you are adding additional features to `strum` or `strum_macros`, you should make sure

to run the tests and add new integration tests to make sure the features work as expected.

# Debugging
To see the generated code, set the STRUM_DEBUG environment variable before compiling your code.
`STRUM_DEBUG=1` will dump all of the generated code for every type. `STRUM_DEBUG=YourType` will
only dump the code generated on a type named `YourType`.
# Name
Strum is short for STRing enUM because it's a library for augmenting enums with additional
information through strings.
Strumming is also a very whimsical motion, much like writing Rust code.
