// the current way of deserializing a struct in ion is weird since
// a deserializer hasn't been implemented yet.
// but, since ion and json are similar, ion is transpiled to json
// and can then be deserialized correctly.
// a deserializer is in progress

use std::fs::read_to_string;
use ion::ion_to_json;

fn main() {
    let docs = read_to_string("docs.ion").unwrap();
    let docs = ion_to_json(&docs).unwrap();
    println!("ion as json {}", docs);
    let docs: Docs = serde_json::from_str(&docs).unwrap();
    println!("{:#?}", docs);
