Instability

Rust API stability attributes for the rest of us.

Overview

This crate provides attribute macros for specifying API stability of public API items of a crate. It is a fork of the Stability original created by Stephen M. Coakley (@sagebind).

Usage

Add the instability crate to your Cargo.toml file:

cargo add instability

Then, use the #[instability::stable] and #[instability::unstable] attributes to specify the stability of your API items:

/// This function does something really risky!#[instability::unstable(feature = "risky-function")]pubfnrisky_function(){println!("This function is unstable!");}/// This function is safe to use!#[instability::stable(since = "1.0.0")]pubfnstable_function(){println!("This function is stable!");}

A feature flag prefixed with "unstable-" will be created that can be used to enable unstable items. The macro will append an extra documentation comment that describes the stability of the item. The visibility of the item will be changed to pub(crate) when the feature is not enabled (or when the attribute is on an impl block, the entire block will be removed).

Check out the Docs for detailed usage. See instability-example for a complete example.
