# mattro-rs

`mattro` is a **proc_macro** attribute parser for Rust.

## Usage
Add this to your Cargo.toml:
```
[dependencies]
mattro = "0.1.1"
```

You can parse:
- `Attribute` using `MacroAttribute::new(attribute)`
- `AttributeArgs` using `MacroAttribute::from_attribute_args(path, args, style)`

## Example
Parsing `AttributeArgs`:

`main.rs`
```rust
#[my_attribute(text="some text", number=120, array=1,2,3)]
fn main() {}
```

`lib.rs`
```rust
use mattro::MacroAttribute;
use proc_macro::TokenStream;

#[proc_macro_attribute]
pub fn my_attribute(attribute: TokenStream, item: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
let tokens = attribute.clone();
let attribute_args: syn::AttributeArgs = syn::parse_macro_input!(tokens);

// Creates a `MacroAttribute` from `AttributeArgs`.
let attr = MacroAttribute::from_attribute_args(
// Path of the attribute
"my_attribute",

// The `AttributeArgs`
attribute_args,

// The attribute style `inner` or `outer`
syn::AttrStyle::Outer
);

// Prints all the `MetaItem`s
for meta_item in &attr {
println!("{:#?}", meta_item);
}

// Returns the decorated item
item
}
```

This prints out:
```scala
NameValue(
NameValue {
name: "text",
value: Literal(
Str(
LitStr {
token: "some text",
},
),
),
},
)
NameValue(
NameValue {
name: "number",
value: Literal(
Int(
LitInt {
token: 120,
},
),
),
},
)
NameValue(
NameValue {
name: "array",
value: Array(
[
Int(
LitInt {
token: 1,
},
),
Int(
LitInt {
token: 2,
},
),
Int(
LitInt {
token: 3,
},
),
],
),
},
)
```

### You could convert the attribute into a `name-value` pairs

```rust
// Converts the attribute into a `name-value` attribute
let name_values_attributes = attr.into_name_values().unwrap();

// Iterate over the `name-value` pairs
for (name, value) in &name_values_attributes {
println!("{:7} => {}", name, value);
}
```

This prints out:
```js
text => "some text"
number => 120
array => [1, 2, 3]
```
