Module rune::macros

Expand description

The macro system of Rune.

Macros are registered with Module::macro_ and are function-like items that are expanded at compile time.

Macros take token streams as arguments and are responsible for translating them into another token stream that will be embedded into the source location where the macro was invoked.

The attribute macros rune::macro_ for function macros (some_macro!( ... )) and rune::attribute_macro for attribute macros (#[some_macro ...]).

Macros§

quote
Macro helper function for quoting the token stream as macro output.

Structs§

FormatArgs
A format specification: A format string followed by arguments to be formatted in accordance with that string.
MacroContext
Context for a running macro.
Quote
ToTokens implementation generated by quote_fn.
SyntheticId
A synthetic identifier which can be used to reference something in storage.
TokenStream
A token stream.
TokenStreamIter
A token stream iterator.

Enums§

SyntheticKind
The kind of a synthetic token.

Traits§

IntoLit
Helper trait used for things that can be converted into tokens.
ToTokens
Trait for things that can be turned into tokens.
