A procedural macro helper for easily writing [derives macros][proc-macro-derive] for enums.

## Usage

Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
derive_utils = "0.15"
```

## Examples

[`quick_derive!`] macro make easy to write [`proc_macro_derive`][proc-macro-derive]
like deriving trait to enum so long as all variants are implemented that trait.

```rust
use derive_utils::quick_derive;
use proc_macro::TokenStream;

#[proc_macro_derive(Iterator)]
pub fn derive_iterator(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
quick_derive! {
input,
// trait path
std::iter::Iterator,
// trait definition
trait Iterator {
type Item;
fn next(&mut self) -> Option;
fn size_hint(&self) -> (usize, Option);
}
}
}

#[proc_macro_derive(ExactSizeIterator)]
pub fn derive_exact_size_iterator(input: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
quick_derive! {
input,
// trait path
std::iter::ExactSizeIterator,
// super trait's associated types
,
// trait definition
trait ExactSizeIterator: Iterator {
fn len(&self) -> usize;
}
}
}
```

### Generated code

When deriving for enum like the following:

```rust
#[derive(Iterator, ExactSizeIterator, Future)]
enum Enum {
A(A),
B(B),
}
```

Code like this will be generated:

```rust
enum Enum
{
A(A),
B(B),
}

#[automatically_derived]
impl
std::iter::Iterator for Enum
where
A: std::iter::Iterator,
B: std::iter::Iterator::Item>,
{
type Item =
::Item;
fn next(&mut self) -> Option {
match self {
Enum::A(x) => x.next(),
Enum::B(x) => x.next(),
}
}
fn size_hint(&self) -> (usize, Option) {
match self {
Enum::A(x) => x.size_hint(),
Enum::B(x) => x.size_hint(),
}
}
}

#[automatically_derived]
impl
std::iter::ExactSizeIterator for Enum
where
A: std::iter::ExactSizeIterator,
B: std::iter::ExactSizeIterator::Item>,
{
fn len(&self) -> usize {
match self {
Enum::A(x) => x.len(),
Enum::B(x) => x.len(),
}
}
}
```
