Release v0.1.0

error-stack-macros2 v0.1.0

The very first development version of error-stack-macros2 is finally here!

Features

This version (0.1.0) offers a derive macro for the Error trait which encourages the best practices for defining error-stack context types.

Here's an example. This code:

use std::{
    error::Error,
    fmt::{self, Display, Formatter},
};

#[derive(Debug)]
pub enum CreditCardError {
    InvalidInput(String),
    Other,
}

impl Display for CreditCardError {
    fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> fmt::Result {
        let msg = match self {
            Self::InvalidInput(_) => "credit card not found",
            Self::Other => "failed to retrieve credit card",
        };

        f.write_str(msg)
    }
}

impl Error for CreditCardError {}

...can now be reduced to this code:

use error_stack_macros2::Error;

#[derive(Debug, Error)]
pub enum CreditCardError {
    #[display("credit card not found")]
    InvalidInput(String),

    #[display("failed to retrieve credit card")]
    Other,
}

This new release also means that we will now be listening to feedback and accepting new features (macros, obviously). We are also now committed to maintaining this macro going forward and keeping our dependencies up to date.
