//! # SNAFU
//!
//! SNAFU is a library to easily generate errors and add information
//! to underlying errors, especially when the same underlying error
//! type can occur in different contexts.
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! - [Turnkey errors based on strings](Whatever)
//! - [Custom error types](Snafu)
//!   - Including a conversion path from turnkey errors
//! - [Backtraces](Backtrace)
//! - Extension traits for
//!   - [`Results`](ResultExt)
//!   - [`Options`](OptionExt)
#![cfg_attr(feature = "futures", doc = "   - [`Futures`](futures::TryFutureExt)")]
#![cfg_attr(feature = "futures", doc = "   - [`Streams`](futures::TryStreamExt)")]
//! - Suitable for libraries and applications
//! - `no_std` compatibility
//! - Generic types and lifetimes
//!
//! For detailed information, please see the [user's guide](guide).
//!
//! ## Quick start
//!
//! If you want to report errors without hassle, start with the
//! [`Whatever`][] type and the [`whatever!`][] macro:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::{prelude::*, Whatever};
//!
//! fn is_valid_id(id: u16) -> Result<(), Whatever> {
//!     if id < 10 {
//!         whatever!("ID may not be less than 10, but it was {}", id);
//!     }
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! You can also use it to wrap any other error:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::{prelude::*, Whatever};
//!
//! fn read_config_file(path: &str) -> Result<String, Whatever> {
//!     std::fs::read_to_string(path)
//!         .with_whatever_context(|_| format!("Could not read file {}", path))
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! [`Whatever`][] allows for a short message and tracks a
//! [`Backtrace`][] for every error:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::{prelude::*, ErrorCompat, Whatever};
//!
//! fn main() {
//! # fn returns_an_error() -> Result<(), Whatever> { Ok(()) }
//!     if let Err(e) = returns_an_error() {
//!         eprintln!("An error occurred: {}", e);
//!         if let Some(bt) = ErrorCompat::backtrace(&e) {
//! #           #[cfg(not(feature = "backtraces-impl-backtrace-crate"))]
//!             eprintln!("{}", bt);
//!         }
//!     }
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Custom error types
//!
//! Many projects will hit limitations of the `Whatever` type. When
//! that occurs, it's time to create your own error type by deriving
//! [`Snafu`][]!
//!
//! ### Struct style
//!
//! SNAFU will read your error struct definition and create a *context
//! selector* type (called `InvalidIdSnafu` in this example). These
//! context selectors are used with the [`ensure!`][] macro to provide
//! ergonomic error creation:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::prelude::*;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, Snafu)]
//! #[snafu(display("ID may not be less than 10, but it was {id}"))]
//! struct InvalidIdError {
//!     id: u16,
//! }
//!
//! fn is_valid_id(id: u16) -> Result<(), InvalidIdError> {
//!     ensure!(id >= 10, InvalidIdSnafu { id });
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! If you add a `source` field to your error, you can then wrap an
//! underlying error using the [`context`](ResultExt::context)
//! extension method:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::prelude::*;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, Snafu)]
//! #[snafu(display("Could not read file {path}"))]
//! struct ConfigFileError {
//!     source: std::io::Error,
//!     path: String,
//! }
//!
//! fn read_config_file(path: &str) -> Result<String, ConfigFileError> {
//!     std::fs::read_to_string(path).context(ConfigFileSnafu { path })
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! ### Enum style
//!
//! While error structs are good for constrained cases, they don't
//! allow for reporting multiple possible kinds of errors at one
//! time. Error enums solve that problem.
//!
//! SNAFU will read your error enum definition and create a *context
//! selector* type for each variant (called `InvalidIdSnafu` in this
//! example). These context selectors are used with the [`ensure!`][]
//! macro to provide ergonomic error creation:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::prelude::*;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, Snafu)]
//! enum Error {
//!     #[snafu(display("ID may not be less than 10, but it was {id}"))]
//!     InvalidId { id: u16 },
//! }
//!
//! fn is_valid_id(id: u16) -> Result<(), Error> {
//!     ensure!(id >= 10, InvalidIdSnafu { id });
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! If you add a `source` field to a variant, you can then wrap an
//! underlying error using the [`context`](ResultExt::context)
//! extension method:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::prelude::*;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, Snafu)]
//! enum Error {
//!     #[snafu(display("Could not read file {path}"))]
//!     ConfigFile {
//!         source: std::io::Error,
//!         path: String,
//!     },
//! }
//!
//! fn read_config_file(path: &str) -> Result<String, Error> {
//!     std::fs::read_to_string(path).context(ConfigFileSnafu { path })
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! You can combine the power of the [`whatever!`][] macro with an
//! enum error type. This is great if you started out with
//! [`Whatever`][] and are moving to a custom error type:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use snafu::prelude::*;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, Snafu)]
//! enum Error {
//!     #[snafu(display("ID may not be less than 10, but it was {id}"))]
//!     InvalidId { id: u16 },
//!
//!     #[snafu(whatever, display("{message}"))]
//!     Whatever {
//!         message: String,
//!         #[snafu(source(from(Box<dyn std::error::Error>, Some)))]
//!         source: Option<Box<dyn std::error::Error>>,
//!     },
//! }
//!
//! fn is_valid_id(id: u16) -> Result<(), Error> {
//!     ensure!(id >= 10, InvalidIdSnafu { id });
//!     whatever!("Just kidding... this function always fails!");
//!     Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! You may wish to make the type `Send` and/or `Sync`, allowing
//! your error type to be used in multithreaded programs, by changing
//! `dyn std::error::Error` to `dyn std::error::Error + Send + Sync`.

/// A basic error type that you can use as a first step to better
/// error handling.
///
/// You can use this type in your own application as a quick way to
/// create errors or add basic context to another error. This can also
/// be used in a library, but consider wrapping it in an
/// [opaque](guide::opaque) error to avoid putting the SNAFU crate in
/// your public API.
///
/// ## Examples
///
/// ```rust
/// use snafu::prelude::*;
///
/// type Result<T, E = snafu::Whatever> = std::result::Result<T, E>;
///
/// fn subtract_numbers(a: u32, b: u32) -> Result<u32> {
///     if a > b {
///         Ok(a - b)
///     } else {
///         whatever!("Can't subtract {} - {}", a, b)
///     }
/// }
///
/// fn complicated_math(a: u32, b: u32) -> Result<u32> {
///     let val = subtract_numbers(a, b).whatever_context("Can't do the math")?;
///     Ok(val * 2)
/// }
/// ```
///
/// See [`whatever!`][] for detailed usage instructions.
///
/// ## Limitations
///
/// When wrapping errors, only the backtrace from the shallowest
/// function is guaranteed to be available. If you need the deepest
/// possible trace, consider creating a custom error type and [using
/// `#[snafu(backtrace)]` on the `source`
/// field](Snafu#controlling-backtraces). If a best-effort attempt is
/// sufficient, see the [`backtrace`][Self::backtrace] method.
///
/// When the standard library stabilizes backtrace support, this
/// behavior may change.
