[](https://github.com/dtolnay/readonly/actions?query=branch%3Amaster)This crate provides an attribute macro to expose struct fields that are readable
and writable from within the same module but readable only outside the module.```toml
[dependencies]
readonly = "0.2"
```## Syntax
Place `#[readonly::make]` on a braced struct or tuple struct. This will make all
fields of the struct publicly readable according to their individual visibility
specifiers, but not writable from other modules.```rust
mod m {
#[readonly::make]
pub struct S {
pub n: i32,
}impl S {
pub fn demo(&mut self) {
// Can read and write from inside the same module.
println!("{}", self.n);
self.n += 1;
}
}
}fn demo(s: &mut m::S) {
// From outside the module, can only read.
println!("{}", s.n);// Does not compile:
//s.n += 1;
}
```The error appears as follows.
```console
error[E0594]: cannot assign to data in a dereference of `m::S`
--> readme.rs:21:5
|
21 | s.n += 1;
| ^^^^^^^^ cannot assign
```Optionally, place `#[readonly]` on individual struct fields to make just those
fields publicly readable, without affecting other fields of the struct.```rust
#[readonly::make]
pub struct S {
// This field can be read (but not written) by super.
#[readonly]
pub(super) readable: i32,// This field can be neither read nor written by other modules.
private: i32,
}
