Macros for creating pseudo-dsls that constructs structs through default construction and field conversion.

This crates is primary designed for bevy where constructing large bundles with ..Default::default() is common.

Take construct! that uses Into.

construct! {
    Student {
        name: "Timmy",
        age: 10,
        father: Parent {
            name: "Tommy",
            age: 42
        }
    }
}

This expands to

Student {
    name: Into::into("Timmy"),
    age: Into::into(10),
    father: construct! {
        Parent {
            name: "Tommy",
            age: 42
        }
    }
    ..Default::default()
}

The macro is recursive on nested struct declarations, if the behavior is not desired, wrap nested structs in brackets.

construct! {
    Student {
        name: "Timmy",
        age: 10,
        father: { Parent {
            name: "Tommy",
            age: 42
        }}
    }
}

The meta constructor macro allows you to define your own macro with custom configurations.

See documentation on meta_default_constructor! for details.

InferInto allows the user to bypass the orphan rule to create conversions.

By default we provide i32 (integer literal) to all numeric types and i64 -> f64 in addition to the standard From and Into.

If multiple conversion paths are found, the conversion will fail, thus failing the infer_construct macro.

• Allow paths as type names.
• Generics parsing.
• Generics parsing in nested constructors.
• Tuple struct support.
