Sample Config

crates.io page docs.rs page license: MIT

Automatic generation of sample configs with documentation comments. Just derive the SampleConfig trait on your config types, create an example object and generate a configuration file using that.

Usage

Example:

use sample_config::SampleConfig;

/// Example enum.
#[derive(Debug, Default, SampleConfig)]
enum ExampleEnum {
    /// A.
    #[default]
    VariantA,
}

/// General documentation isn't used.
#[derive(Debug, Default, SampleConfig)]
struct ExampleConfig {
    /// Some optional string.
    string: Option<String>,
    /// Some list of numbers.
    numbers: Vec<usize>,
    /// Enumeration of values.
    value: ExampleEnum,
}

let instance = ExampleConfig::default();
let yaml_file_string = instance.generate_sample_yaml();
std::fs::write("output.yaml", &yaml_file_string).unwrap();
std::fs::remove_file("output.yaml").unwrap()

Please take a look at the tests to see more complicated examples.
