html-node

HTML nodes in Rust. [powered by rstml].

Note

If you want to use this purely for building websites in rust, consider using my other library, hypertext. It puts performance and type-checking first, and supports this crate's syntax as well as maud's syntax, which is much cleaner.

Features

  • Text escaping
  • Pretty-printing
  • Customizable compile-time type-checked elements and attributes (docs)
    • completely optional, and can be mixed with untyped elements when needed!

Example

let shopping_list = vec!["milk", "eggs", "bread"];

let shopping_list_html = html! {
    <div>
        <h1>Shopping List</h1>
        <ul>
            { shopping_list.into_iter().zip(1..).map(|(item, i)| html! {
                <li class="item">
                    <input type="checkbox" id={format!("item-{i}")}>
                    <label for={format!("item-{i}")}>{text!("{item}")}</label>
                </li>
            }) }
        </ul>
    </div>
};
HTML Output
// the `#` flag enables pretty-printing
println!("{shopping_list_html:#}");
<div>
    <h1>
        Shopping List
    </h1>
    <ul>
        <li class="item">
            <input type="checkbox" id="item-1">
            <label for="item-1">
                milk
            </label>
        </li>
        <li class="item">
            <input type="checkbox" id="item-2">
            <label for="item-2">
                eggs
            </label>
        </li>
        <li class="item">
            <input type="checkbox" id="item-3">
            <label for="item-3">
                bread
            </label>
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>
Rust Output
println!("{shopping_list_html:#?}");
