inline-xml

Inline XML data directly into your Rust code.

Example

use inline_xml::xml;

fn main() {
    let value = 42;
    let html = xml! {
        <html>
            <head>
                <title>Example</title>
            </head>
            <body>
                <h1>Example</h1>
                <p>Hello World</p>
                <p>Value: {value}</p>
            </body>
        </html>
    };
    
    println!("{html}");
}

Syntax issues

Since Rust will tokenize the input and proc_macro_span is not stabilized, whitespace will be discarded and therefore inline_xml has to guess about where to put whitespace when printing.

TODO

Eliminate usage of Content::Nested completely
More documentation
Mention, in the docs, that struct Xml can take multiple tags
Make struct Tag an instance of trait ToXml
Arg -> Attr, args -> attrs
Fix XML injection for attributes
Fix interpretation of floating point literals
Somehow produce XML & DTD declarations (probably as a format arg)
Namespaces (eg. <a:x>asdf</a:x>)
