es-fluent-derive

Procedural macros for the es-fluent localization system.

This crate is the engine that transforms your Rust structs and enums into Fluent messages. It is designed to be used via the es-fluent crate, not directly.

All macros provided by this crate are fully independent and composable. You can use them individually or together on the same type depending on your needs.

Features

#[derive(EsFluent)]

Turns an enum or struct into a localizable message.

• Enums: Each variant becomes a message ID (e.g., MyEnum::Variant -> my_enum-Variant).
• Structs: The struct itself becomes the message ID (e.g., MyStruct -> my_struct).
• Fields: Fields are automatically exposed as arguments to the Fluent message.

use es_fluent::EsFluent;

#[derive(EsFluent)]
pub enum LoginError {
    InvalidPassword, // no params
    UserNotFound { username: String }, // exposed as $username in the ftl file
    Something(String, String, String), // exposed as $f1, $f2, $f3 in the ftl file
}

// Usage:
// LoginError::InvalidPassword.to_fluent_string()
// LoginError::UserNotFound { username: "john" }.to_fluent_string()
// LoginError::Something("a", "b", "c").to_fluent_string()

#[derive(EsFluent)]
pub struct UserProfile<'a> {
    pub name: &'a str, // exposed as $name in the ftl file
    pub gender: &'a str, // exposed as $gender in the ftl file
}

// usage: UserProfile { name: "John", gender: "male" }.to_fluent_string()

#[derive(EsFluentChoice)]

Allows an enum to be used inside another message as a selector (e.g., for gender or status).

use es_fluent::{EsFluent, EsFluentChoice};

#[derive(EsFluent, EsFluentChoice)]
#[fluent_choice(serialize_all = "snake_case")]
pub enum Gender {
    Male,
    Female,
    Other,
}

#[derive(EsFluent)]
pub struct UserProfile<'a> {
    pub name: &'a str,
    #[fluent(choice)] // Matches $gender -> [male]...
    pub gender: &'a Gender,
}

// usage: UserProfile { name: "John", gender: &Gender::Male }.to_fluent_string()

#[derive(EsFluentKv)]

Generates key-value pair enums for struct fields. This is perfect for generating UI labels, placeholders, or descriptions for a form object.

use es_fluent::EsFluentKv;

#[derive(EsFluentKv)]
#[fluent_kv(keys = ["label", "description"])]
pub struct LoginForm {
    pub username: String,
    pub password: String,
}

// Generates enums -> keys:
// LoginFormLabelKvFtl::{Variants} -> (login_form_label_kv_ftl-{variant})
// LoginFormDescriptionKvFtl::{Variants} -> (login_form_description_kv_ftl-{variant})

// usage: LoginFormLabelKvFtl::Username.to_fluent_string()

#[derive(EsFluentThis)]

Generates a helper implementation of the ThisFtl trait and registers the type's name as a key. This is similar to EsFluentKv (which registers fields), but for the parent type itself.

• #[fluent_this(origin)]: Generates an implementation where this_ftl() returns the base key for the type.

use es_fluent::EsFluentThis;

#[derive(EsFluentThis)]
#[fluent_this(origin)]
pub enum Gender {
    Male,
    Female,
    Other,
}

// Generates key:
// (gender_this)

// usage: Gender::this_ftl()

• #[fluent_this(members)]: Can be combined with Kv derives to generate keys for members.

#[derive(EsFluentKv, EsFluentThis)]
#[fluent_this(origin, members)]
#[fluent_kv(keys = ["label", "description"])]
pub struct LoginForm {
    pub username: String,
    pub password: String,
}

// Generates keys:
// (login_form_label_kv_ftl_this)
// (login_form_description_kv_ftl_this)

// usage: LoginFormDescriptionKvFtl::this_ftl()
