Quick Error 2

This is https://github.com/tailhook/quick-error but upgraded to Rust 2018 and support for Error::source(). It has been published as quick-error2. You can upgrade by updating your Cargo.toml to

[dependencies]
quick-error = { package = "quick-error2", version = "2" }

Why?

Because there hasn't been a release yet of quick-error version 2.* 🤷‍♂️.

Quick Error

Status:production-ready
Documentation:https://docs.rs/quick-error/

A macro which makes error types pleasant to write.

Features:

  • Define enum type with arbitrary parameters
  • Concise notation of Display and Error traits
  • Full control of Display and Error trait implementation
  • Any number of From traits
  • Support for all enum-variants Unit, Tuple and Struct

Here is the comprehensive example:

quick_error! {
    #[derive(Debug)]
    pub enum IoWrapper {
        Io(err: io::Error) {
            from()
            display("I/O error: {}", err)
            cause(err)
        }
        Other(descr: &'static str) {
            display("Error {}", descr)
        }
        IoAt { place: &'static str, err: io::Error } {
            cause(err)
            display(me) -> ("io error at {}: {}", place, err)
            from(s: String) -> {
                place: "some string",
                err: io::Error::new(io::ErrorKind::Other, s)
            }
        }
        Discard {
            from(&'static str)
        }
    }
}
