# custom-format

![Minimum supported Rust version](https://img.shields.io/badge/rustc-1.56+-important?logo=rust "Minimum Supported Rust Version")
[![Documentation](https://docs.rs/custom-format/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/custom-format)

This crate extends the standard formatting syntax with custom format specifiers, by providing custom formatting macros.

It uses ` :` (a space and a colon) as a separator before the format specifier, which is not a syntax currently accepted and allows supporting standard specifiers in addition to custom specifiers. It also supports [format args capture](https://blog.rust-lang.org/2022/01/13/Rust-1.58.0.html#captured-identifiers-in-format-strings) even on older versions of Rust, since it manually adds the named parameter if missing.

This library comes in two flavors, corresponding to the following features:

- `compile-time` (*enabled by default*)

The set of possible custom format specifiers is defined at compilation, so invalid specifiers can be checked at compile-time.
This allows the library to have the same performance as when using the standard library formatting traits.

- `runtime` (*enabled by default*)

The formatting method dynamically checks the format specifier at runtime for each invocation.
This is a slower version, but it has additional flexibility.

## Documentation

Documentation is hosted on [docs.rs](https://docs.rs/custom-format/latest/).

## Example

Code

```rust
use custom_format as cfmt;

use core::fmt;

pub struct DateTime {
year: i32,
month: u8,
month_day: u8,
hour: u8,
minute: u8,
second: u8,
nanoseconds: u32,
}

macro_rules! impl_custom_format_for_datetime {
(match spec { $($spec:literal => $func:expr $(,)?)* }) => {
use cfmt::compile_time::{spec, CustomFormat};
$(
impl CustomFormat<{ spec($spec) }> for DateTime {
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result {
($func as fn(&Self, &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result)(self, f)
}
}
)*
};
}

// Static format specifiers, checked at compile-time
impl_custom_format_for_datetime!(match spec {
// Year with pad for at least 4 digits
"%Y" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:04}", this.year),
// Year % 100 (00..99)
"%y" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:02}", (this.year % 100).abs()),
// Month of the year, zero-padded (01..12)
"%m" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:02}", this.month),
// Day of the month, zero-padded (01..31)
"%d" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:02}", this.month_day),
// Hour of the day, 24-hour clock, zero-padded (00..23)
"%H" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:02}", this.hour),
// Minute of the hour (00..59)
"%M" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:02}", this.minute),
// Second of the minute (00..60)
"%S" => |this, f| write!(f, "{:02}", this.second),
// Date (%m/%d/%y)
"%D" => {
|this, f| {
let month = cfmt::custom_formatter!("%m", this);
let day = cfmt::custom_formatter!("%d", this);
let year = cfmt::custom_formatter!("%y", this);
write!(f, "{}/{}/{}", month, day, year)
}
}
});

// Dynamic format specifiers, checked at runtime
impl cfmt::runtime::CustomFormat for DateTime {
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut fmt::Formatter, spec: &str) -> fmt::Result {
let mut chars = spec.chars();
match (chars.next(), chars.next_back()) {
// Nanoseconds with n digits (%nN)
(Some('%'), Some('N')) => match chars.as_str().parse() {
Ok(n) if n > 0 => {
if n <= 9 {
write!(f, "{:0width$}", self.nanoseconds / 10u32.pow(9 - n as u32), width = n)
} else {
write!(f, "{:09}{:0width$}", self.nanoseconds, 0, width = n - 9)
}
}
_ => Err(fmt::Error),
},
_ => Err(fmt::Error),
}
}
}

let dt = DateTime {
year: 1836,
month: 5,
month_day: 18,
hour: 23,
minute: 45,
second: 54,
nanoseconds: 123456789,
};

// Expands to:
//
// match (&("DateTime"), &dt) {
// (arg0, arg1) => ::std::println!(
// "The {0:?} is: {1}-{2}-{3} {4}:{5}:{6}.{7}",
// arg0,
// ::custom_format::custom_formatter!("%Y", arg1),
// ::custom_format::custom_formatter!("%m", arg1),
// ::custom_format::custom_formatter!("%d", arg1),
// ::custom_format::custom_formatter!("%H", arg1),
// ::custom_format::custom_formatter!("%M", arg1),
// ::custom_format::custom_formatter!("%S", arg1),
// ::custom_format::runtime::CustomFormatter::new("%6N", arg1)
// ),
// }
//
// Output: `The "DateTime" is: 1836-05-18 23:45:54.123456`
//
// The custom format specifier is interpreted as a compile-time specifier by default,
// or as a runtime specifier if it is inside "<>".
cfmt::println!(
"The {ty:?} is: {dt :%Y}-{dt :%m}-{dt :%d} {dt :%H}:{dt :%M}:{dt :%S}.{dt :<%6N>}",
ty = "DateTime",
);

// Compile-time error since "%h" is not a valid format specifier
// cfmt::println!("{0 :%h}", dt);

// Panic at runtime since "%h" is not a valid format specifier
// cfmt::println!("{0 :<%h>}", dt);
```
