[Unreleased]

[0.22.2] - 2021-10-07

Fixed

  • Fixed a regression introduced with #386: Rustler.Compiler.Config called into cargo when skip_compilation? was set, breaking setups where cargo is not installed. Fixed with #389, thanks @karolsluszniak

[0.22.1] - 2021-10-05

Fixed

  • [Breaking change] codegen-generated decoders always raise an error instead of causing the calling NIF to return an atom in some cases
  • Fix codegen problem for untagged enums (#370)
  • Fix handling local dependencies with @external_resources (#381)

[0.22.0] - 2021-06-22

Added

  • Simple Debug impl for rustler::Error
  • Support newtype and tuple structs for NifTuple and NifRecord
  • rustler::Error::Term encoding an arbitrary boxed encoder, returning {:error, term}
  • Generic encoder/decoder for HashMap<T, U>, where T: Decoder and U: Decoder

Fixed

  • Compilation time of generated decoders has been reduced significantly.
  • Fixed a segfault caused by OwnedEnv::send_and_clear

Changes

  • Renamed Pid to LocalPid to clarify that it can't point to a remote process
  • Dependencies have been updated.
  • Derive macros have been refactored.
  • Macros have been renamed and old ones have been deprecated:
    • rustler_export_nifs! is now rustler::init!
    • rustler_atoms! is now rustler::atoms!
    • resource_struct_init! is now rustler::resource!
  • New rustler::atoms! macro removed the atom prefix from the name:
//
// Before
//
rustler::rustler_atoms! {
    atom ok;
    atom error;
    atom renamed_atom = "Renamed";
}

//
// After
//
rustler::atoms! {
    ok,
    error,
    renamed_atom = "Renamed",
}
  • NIF functions can be initialized with a simplified syntax:
//
// Before
//
rustler::rustler_export_nifs! {
    "Elixir.Math",
    [
        ("add", 2, add)
    ],
    None
}

//
// After
//
rustler::init!("Elixir.Math", [add]);
  • NIFs can be derived from regular functions, if the arguments implement Decoder and the return type implements Encoder:
//
// Before
//
fn add<'a>(env: Env<'a>, args: &[Term<'a>]) -> Result<Term<'a>, Error> {
    let num1: i64 = args[0].decode()?;
    let num2: i64 = args[1].decode()?;

    Ok((atoms::ok(), num1 + num2).encode(env))
}

//
// After
//
#[rustler::nif]
fn add(a: i64, b: i64) -> i64 {
  a + b
}
  • rustler::nif exposes more options to configure a NIF were the NIF is defined:
#[rustler::nif(schedule = "DirtyCpu")]
pub fn dirty_cpu() -> Atom {
    let duration = Duration::from_millis(100);
    std::thread::sleep(duration);

    atoms::ok()
}

#[rustler::nif(name = "my_add")]
fn add(a: i64, b: i64) -> i64 {
  a + b
}

Deprecations

The rustler compiler has been deprecated and will be removed with v1.0. NIFs are no longer defined in mix.exs, but are configured with use Rustler. See the documentation for the Rustler module. To migrate to the new configuration:

  • Drop :rustler from the :compilers key in your mix.exs project/0 function

  • Drop :rustler_crates from project/0 and move the configurations into the use Rustler of your NIF module or application config:

    # config/dev.exs
config :my_app, MyApp.Native,
  mode: :debug

For more information, see the documentation.

[0.21.0] - 2019-09-07

Added

  • Support for OTP22.
  • Rust linting with clippy.
  • Support for decoding IOLists as binaries, Term::decode_as_binary.

Changes

  • rustler_codegen is now reexported by the rustler crate. Depending on the rustler_codegen crate is deprecated.
  • erlang_nif-sys has been renamed to rustler_sys and vendored into the rustler repo.
  • Replaced the hand-rolled TOML parser in rustler_mix with the toml-elixir package.
  • Improve error messages for derived encoders/decoders.
  • Rust bool now corresponds only to booleans (false, true) in Elixir. Previously, nil and false were both decodable to bool. To use the previous behaviour, a Truthy newtype was introduced.
