//! Derive macro for [`syn::parse::Parse`]
//!
//! A common pattern when writing custom `syn` parsers is repeating `<name>: input.parse()?` for
//! each field in the output. `#[derive(Parse)]` handles that for you, with some extra helpful
//! customization.
//!
//! ## Usage
//!
//! Using this crate is as simple as adding it to your 'Cargo.toml' and importing the derive macro:
//!
//! ```toml
//! # Cargo.toml
//!
//! [dependencies]
//! derive-syn-parse = "0.2.0"
//! ```
//!
//! ```
//! // your_file.rs
//! use derive_syn_parse::Parse;
//!
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct CustomParsable {
//! // ...
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The derived implementation of `Parse` always parses in the order that the fields are given.
//! **Note that deriving `Parse` is also available on enums.** For more information, see the
//! [dedicated section](#enum-parsing).
//!
//! This crate is intended for users who are already making heavy use of `syn`.
//!
//! ## Motivation
//!
//! When writing rust code that makes heavy use of `syn`'s parsing functionality, we often end up
//! writing things like:
//! ```
//! use syn::parse::{Parse, ParseStream};
//! use syn::{Ident, Token, Type};
//!
//! // A simplified struct field
//! //
//! // x: i32
//! struct MyField {
//! ident: Ident,
//! colon_token: Token![:],
//! ty: Type,
//! }
//!
//! impl Parse for MyField {
//! fn parse(input: ParseStream) -> syn::Result<Self> {
//! Ok(MyField {
//! ident: input.parse()?,
//! colon_token: input.parse()?,
//! ty: input.parse()?,
//! })
//! }
//! }
//! ```
//! This is really repetitive! Ideally, we'd like to just `#[derive(Parse)]` and have it work. And
//! so we can! (for the most part) Adding `#[derive(Parse)]` to the previous struct produces an
//! equivalent implementation of `Parse`:
//! ```
//! use syn::{Ident, Token, Type};
//! use derive_syn_parse::Parse;
//!
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct MyField {
//! ident: Ident,
//! colon_token: Token![:],
//! ty: Type,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Of course, there are more complicated cases. This is mainly covered below in the 'Advanced
//! Usage' section.
//!
//! ## Advanced Usage
//!
//! There are a few different facilities provided here, including:
//! * Enum variant parsing,
//! * Conditional field parsing,
//! * Parsing within token trees (parens, brackets, etc.),
//! * And much more!
//!
//! Each of the below sections can be expanded to view detailed information about how to use a
//! particular component. Be warned - each section assumes a fair amount of knowledge about the relevant
//! `syn` features.
//
//
// ---------- SECTION: Enum Parsing ----------
//
//! <details><summary><b>Enum parsing</b></summary>
//!
//! Parsing enums is a complex feature. When writing manual implementations of
//! `Parse`, it doesn't come up as often, but there are also typically *many* ways to do it:
//! `syn` provides both forking the `ParseBuffer` *and* peeking to handle this, with the suggestion that
//! peeking be preferred.
//!
//! This library does not support forking; it tends to suffer from poor error messages and general
//! inefficiency. That being said, manual implementations of `Parse` can and should be written in the
//! rare cases when this library is insufficient.
//!
//! We support peeking in a couple differnet ways - with the `#[peek]` and `#[peek_with]` attributes.
//! One peeking attribute is required for each `enum` variant. The general syntax tends to look like:
//!
//! ```text
//! #[peek($TYPE, name = $NAME)]
//! ```
//! and
//! ```text
//! #[peek_with($EXPR, name = $NAME)]
//! ```
//! The name is provided in order to construct useful error messages when input doesn't match any of the
//! variants.
//!
//! These essentially translate to:
//! ```
//! if input.peek($TYPE) {
//! // parse variant
//! } else {
//! // parse other variants
//! }
//! ```
//! and
//! ```
//! if ($EXPR)(input) {
//! // parse variant
//! } else {
//! // parse other variants
//! }
//! ```
//! </details>
//
//
// ---------- SECTION: Token Trees ----------
//
//! <details><summary><b>Token Trees (parens, brackets, braces)</b></summary>
//!
//! If derive macros had access to type information, we could auto-detect when a field contains any
//! of `syn::token::{Paren, Bracket, Brace}`. Unfortunately, we can't - and these don't implement
//! `Parse`, so they each have their own special attribute to mark them: `#[paren]`, `#[bracket]`,
//! and `#[brace]`, respectively.
//!
//! These are typically used with the `#[inside]` attribute, which indicates that a field should be
//! parsed inside a particular named token tree. This might look like:
//!
//! ```
//! use derive_syn_parse::Parse;
//! use syn::{Ident, token, Expr};
//!
//! // Parses a simple function call - something like
//! //
//! // so_long(and_thanks + for_all * the_fish)
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct SingleArgFn {
//! name: Ident,
//! #[paren]
//! arg_paren: token::Paren,
//! #[inside(arg_paren)]
//! arg: Expr,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! The `#[inside]` attribute can - of course - be repeated with multiple token trees, though this
//! may not necessarily produce the most readable type definitions.
//!
//! For reference, the above code produces an implementation equivalent to:
//! ```
//! # use syn::{Ident, token, Expr};
//! # struct SingleArgFn { name: Ident, arg_paren: token::Paren, arg: Expr }
//!
//! use syn::parse::{Parse, ParseStream};
//!
//! impl Parse for SingleArgFn {
//! fn parse(input: ParseStream) -> syn::Result<Self> {
//! let paren;
//! Ok(SingleArgFn {
//! name: input.parse()?,
//! arg_paren: syn::parenthesized!(paren in input),
//! arg: paren.parse()?,
//! })
//! }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! </details>
//
//
// ---------- SECTION: Custom parsing (call, parse_terminated) ----------
//
//! <details><summary><b>Custom parse functions (<code>#[call]</code>, <code>#[parse_terminated]</code>)</b></summary>
//!
//! Not every type worth parsing implements `Parse`, but we still might want to parse them - things
//! like [`Vec<Attribute>`] or any [`Punctuated<_, _>`] type. In these cases, the available
//! attributes mirror the methods on [`ParseBuffer`].
//!
//! [`ParseBuffer`]: syn::parse::ParseBuffer
//!
//! For `#[parse_terminated]`, there aren't any parameters that can be specified - it's common
//! enough that it's provided for those `Punctuated` fields.
//!
//! Alternatively, `#[call]` has the syntax `#[call( EXPR )]`, where `EXPR` is *any expression*
//! implementing `FnOnce(ParseBuffer) -> syn::Result<T>`. Typically, this might be something like:
//! ```
//! use syn::{Attribute, Ident, Token};
//!
//! // Parses a unit struct with attributes.
//! //
//! // #[derive(Copy, Clone)]
//! // struct S;
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct UnitStruct {
//! #[call(Attribute::parse_outer)]
//! attrs: Vec<Attribute>,
//! struct_token: Token![struct],
//! name: Ident,
//! semi_token: Token![;],
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Unlike with [`ParseBuffer::call`], which only accepts functions that are
//! `fn(ParseStream) -> syn::Result<T>`, `#[call]` allows any expression that we can call with the
//! `ParseBuffer`. So one could - hypothetically - implement `#[parse_if]` with this:
//! ```
//! struct Foo {
//! a: Option<Token![=>]>,
//! #[call(|inp| match &a { Some(_) => Ok(Some(inp.parse()?)), None => Ok(None) })]
//! b: Option<Bar>,
//! }
//! ```
//! Though it's probably best to just use `#[parse_if]` :)
//!
//! [`Vec<Attribute>`]: syn::Attribute
//! [`Punctuated<_, _>`]: syn::punctuated::Punctuated
//! [`ParseBuffer::call`]: syn::parse::ParseBuffer
//!
//! </details>
//
//
// ---------- SECTION: Conditional field parsing ----------
//
//! <details><summary><b>Conditional field parsing (<code>#[parse_if]</code>, <code>#[peek]</code>)</b></summary>
//!
//! When implementing `Parse` for structs, it is occasionally the case that certain fields are
//! optional - or should only be parsed under certain circumstances. There are attributes for that!
//!
//! Say we want to parse enums with the following, different syntax:
//!
//! ```
//! enum Foo {
//! Bar: Baz,
//! Qux,
//! }
//! ```
//! where the equivalent Rust code would be:
//!
//! ```
//! enum Foo {
//! Bar(Baz),
//! Qux,
//! }
//! ```
//! There’s two ways we could parse the variants here – either with a colon and following type or
//! with no colon or type. To handle this, we can write:
//!
//! ```
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct Variant {
//! name: Ident,
//! // `syn` already supports optional parsing of simple tokens
//! colon: Option<Token![:]>,
//! // We only want to parse the trailing type if there's a colon:
//! #[parse_if(colon.is_some())]
//! ty: Option<Type>,
//! }
//! ```
//! Note that in this case, `ty` must be an `Option`. In addition to conditional parsing based on
//! the values of what’s already been parsed, we can also peek - just as described above in the
//! section on parsing enums. The only difference here is that we do not need to provide a name for
//! the optional field. We could have equally implemented the above as:
//!
//! ```
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct Variant {
//! name: Ident,
//! #[peek(Token![:])]
//! ty: Option<VariantType>,
//! }
//!
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct VariantType {
//! colon: Token![:],
//! ty: Type,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! </details>
//
//
// ---------- SECTION: Prefix & postfix ----------
//
//! <details> <summary><b>Temporary parses: Prefix & postfix </b></summary>
//!
//! A common pattern that sometimes occurs when deriving `Parse` implementations is to have many
//! unused punctuation fields - imagine a hypothetical implementation of field parsing with default
//! values:
//!
//! ```
//! // A field with default values, parsing something like:
//! //
//! // foo: Bar = Bar::new()
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct Field {
//! ident: Ident,
//! colon: Token![:],
//! ty: Type,
//! eq: Option<Token![=]>,
//! #[parse_if(eq.is_some())]
//! expr: Option<Expr>,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Here, there's a couple fields that probably won't be used later - both `colon` and `eq`. We can
//! elimitate both of these with the `#[prefix]` attribute:
//!
//! ```
//! // A field with default values, parsing something like:
//! //
//! // foo: Bar = Bar::new()
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct Field {
//! ident: Ident,
//! #[prefix(Token![:])]
//! ty: Type,
//! #[prefix(Option<Token![=]> as eq)]
//! #[parse_if(eq.is_some())]
//! expr: Option<Expr>,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! We can use `"as <Ident>"` to give a temporary name to the value - including it as a parsed
//! value that can be referenced in other parsing clauses, but without adding it as a struct field.
//!
//! There's *also* a `#[postfix]` attribute, which operates very similarly to `#[prefix]`, but
//! exists to allow unused fields at the end of the struct. In general, `#[postfix]` tends to be
//! pretty tricky to read, so it's generally preferable to use `#[prefix]` to keep the field
//! ordering the same as the parse order.
//!
//! In some cases, we might want to have both a field and its prefix parsed inside some other token
//! tree. Like the following contrived example:
//!
//! ```
//! use syn::*;
//!
//! // Parses.... something. Who knows if this is useful... :P
//! //
//! // (=> x + 2)
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct Funky {
//! #[paren]
//! paren: token::Paren,
//! #[inside(paren)]
//! r_arrow: Token![=>],
//! #[inside(paren)]
//! expr: Expr,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! To remove the unused `r_arrow` field here, we have an other extra piece we can add:
//! `"in" <Ident>"`.
//!
//! ```
//! #[derive(Parse)]
//! struct Funky {
//! #[paren]
//! paren: token::Paren,
//! #[prefix(Token![=>] in paren)]
//! #[inside(paren)]
//! expr: Expr,
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! Note that attempting to write the `#[inside]` before `#[prefix]` is forbidden; it's less clear
//! what the expected behavior there should be.
//!
//! Finally, when combining both `"as" <ident>` and `"in" <ident>`, they should come in that
//! order - e.g. `#[prefix(Foo as bar in baz)]`.
//!
