yayagram VS strum

Two crates: - parse-size is criminally underrated. It allows you to parse input like "100 MB", "50 kb", "25b" into an integer of bytes. It parses input so intuitively and it works exactly the way I expected. I use it in https://github.com/r00ster91/splitter. - line_drawing is in my opinion the best line algorithm library there is. Extremely clean and nice to use. Exactly what I need for my project https://github.com/r00ster91/yayagram.

Still working on this puzzle game playable in the terminal with the mouse: https://github.com/r00ster91/yayagram In version 0.5.0 I've added a feature to darken all cells in a specific direction from the pointer but now I've figured out that a much better way is to constantly darken all cells in the four directions of the mouse pointer.

This is the repository with much more information in the README.md: https://github.com/r00ster91/yayagram, including an example at the bottom that might help you understand the game better if you are new to this kind of puzzle game. See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonogram.

Hello Rustaceans. This is a clone of the puzzle game picross (also known as nonograms, griddlers and some other names) but with some additions and novelty, like a blue grid cell (wasn't used in this video) and an editor. If you want to try it, you can install the game with cargo install yayagram. Here is the repository with much more information in the README.md: https://github.com/r00ster91/yayagram, including an example that might help you understand the game better if you are new to this puzzle game.

Today I released the puzzle game yayagram which is picross/nonograms but for the terminal. I've been working on it for what feels like months now and it has really come a long way.

Take a look at the strum crate. https://crates.io/crates/strum

I would be use something like https://github.com/Peternator7/strum if I need map string to enum and serde is not the option.

Looks like proper support for this in strum has been proposed.

This crate can generate an iterator for you using a macro https://github.com/Peternator7/strum

The strum crate is also good for removing this kind of boilerplate, and worth checking out!

strum is among my favorite crates to recommend. Favorites of this crate include EnumProperty and EnumIter

I released my first crate that provides a derive macro to easily obtain a name of a current variant in an enum as a string. I did it mostly to learn about procedural macros and the process of releasing a crate. I then found out there is strum which does this and much more. Nonetheless, I learned a lot and I found couple of nice tools like ```cargo-release and git-cliff.

I used https://crates.io/crates/strum to iterate over the enum variants, otherwise you'd have to hardcode the list of variants and wouldn't gain anything.

If you chose to go with the "derive a trait" route the strum crate might be what you're looking for. It lets you use derive to add information about variant count, discriminants or even iterators over variants to an enum.
