# Bit Roles

[![Latest Version](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/bit_roles.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/bit_roles)
[![Rust Documentation](https://docs.rs/bit_roles/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/bit_roles)

This crate enables you to implement granular role and permission management based on bit flags.


Using discrete fields
Using bit roles

```rust
#[derive(Debug)]
struct User {
can_send_message: bool,
can_edit_message: bool
}

fn main() {
let user = User {
can_send_message: true,
can_edit_message: false
};
}
```

```rust
use bit_roles::BitRole;

#[derive(Debug)]
struct User {
permissions: usize
}

#[derive(Debug, BitRole, Copy, Clone)]
enum Permission {
None = 0,
SendMessage = 1,
EditMessage = 2,
}

fn main() {
let mut permissions = Permission::empty();
permissions.add_one(Permission::SendMessage);

let user = User {
permissions: permissions.get_value()
};
}
```

## Getting started

Add `bit_roles` to your project:

```shell
cargo add bit_roles
```

## Usage

You can derive the `BitRole` trait for your role enum. It ensures compile-time validation for enum discriminants. Ensure
you specify a discriminant for every enum variant; it must be either zero or a power of two. Also, remember to derive
the `Copy` and `Clone` traits for your enum.

If you need a manager without compile-time checks, it's also exported as `BitRoleUnchecked` trait. This is useful if you
want to use raw integer values for roles or have a complex role enum definition. You will need to implement
the `Into` trait for your role enum, along with deriving the `Copy` and `Clone` traits for it.
