[Help Wanted] Please Make lib.rs/build_template public

[thegenius]

I'am the author of TaiTan-Orm ,
And template support is the most important feature.
I formally use rinja template engine, and now use askama instead.

now I can implement a Template Query like this:

#[derive(askama::Template, Template, Debug)]
#[template(source="SELECT * FROM users WHERE name= :{name} {% if age.is_some() %}  AND age = :{age} {% endif %}", ext="txt")]
pub struct Query {
   name: String,
   age: Option<i64>
}

But it is ugly to write both askama::Template and Template,
And it wll be appreciate if there is any possible to make lib.rs/build_template public.

Hm, that is not possible. A proc-macro crate can only export proc-macros. You would need access to askama_derive_standalone. I wonder if there would be other possible users for our code generator.

Yes, what we actually needed is the code generator, and it will be a great improve if the code generator would be open and used by other library, like Taitan-ORM.
