//! `prost-build` compiles `.proto` files into Rust.
//!
//! `prost-build` is designed to be used for build-time code generation as part of a Cargo
//! build-script.
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! Let's create a small crate, `snazzy`, that defines a collection of
//! snazzy new items in a protobuf file.
//!
//! ```bash
//! $ cargo new snazzy && cd snazzy
//! ```
//!
//! First, add `prost-build`, `prost` and its public dependencies to `Cargo.toml`
//! (see [crates.io](https://crates.io/crates/prost) for the current versions):
//!
//! ```toml
//! [dependencies]
//! bytes =
//! prost =
//!
//! [build-dependencies]
//! prost-build = { version = }
//! ```
//!
//! Next, add `src/items.proto` to the project:
//!
//! ```proto
//! syntax = "proto3";
//!
//! package snazzy.items;
//!
//! // A snazzy new shirt!
//! message Shirt {
//! enum Size {
//! SMALL = 0;
//! MEDIUM = 1;
//! LARGE = 2;
//! }
//!
//! string color = 1;
//! Size size = 2;
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! To generate Rust code from `items.proto`, we use `prost-build` in the crate's
//! `build.rs` build-script:
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! use std::io::Result;
//! fn main() -> Result<()> {
//! prost_build::compile_protos(&["src/items.proto"], &["src/"])?;
//! Ok(())
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! And finally, in `lib.rs`, include the generated code:
//!
//! ```rust,ignore
//! // Include the `items` module, which is generated from items.proto.
//! // It is important to maintain the same structure as in the proto.
//! pub mod snazzy {
//! pub mod items {
//! include!(concat!(env!("OUT_DIR"), "/snazzy.items.rs"));
//! }
//! }
//!
//! use snazzy::items;
//!
//! pub fn create_large_shirt(color: String) -> items::Shirt {
//! let mut shirt = items::Shirt::default();
//! shirt.color = color;
//! shirt.set_size(items::shirt::Size::Large);
//! shirt
//! }
//! ```
//!
//! That's it! Run `cargo doc` to see documentation for the generated code. The full
//! example project can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/danburkert/snazzy).
//!
//! ## Feature Flags
//! - `format`: Format the generated output. This feature is enabled by default.
//! - `cleanup-markdown`: Clean up Markdown in protobuf docs. Enable this to clean up protobuf files from third parties.
//!
//! ### Cleaning up Markdown in code docs
//!
//! If you are using protobuf files from third parties, where the author of the protobuf
//! is not treating comments as Markdown, or is, but has codeblocks in their docs,
//! then you may need to clean up the documentation in order that `cargo test --doc`
//! will not fail spuriously, and that `cargo doc` doesn't attempt to render the
//! codeblocks as Rust code.
//!
//! To do this, in your `Cargo.toml`, add `features = ["cleanup-markdown"]` to the inclusion
//! of the `prost-build` crate and when your code is generated, the code docs will automatically
//! be cleaned up a bit.
//!
//! ## Sourcing `protoc`
//!
//! `prost-build` depends on the Protocol Buffers compiler, `protoc`, to parse `.proto` files into
//! a representation that can be transformed into Rust. If set, `prost-build` uses the `PROTOC`
//! for locating `protoc`. For example, on a macOS system where Protobuf is installed
//! with Homebrew, set the environment variables to:
//!
//! ```bash
//! PROTOC=/usr/local/bin/protoc
//! ```
//!
//! and in a typical Linux installation:
//!
//! ```bash
//! PROTOC=/usr/bin/protoc
//! ```
//!
//! If no `PROTOC` environment variable is set then `prost-build` will search the
//! current path for `protoc` or `protoc.exe`. If `prost-build` can not find `protoc`
//! via these methods the `compile_protos` method will fail.
//!
//! ### Compiling `protoc` from source
//!
//! To compile `protoc` from source you can use the `protobuf-src` crate and
//! set the correct environment variables.
//! ```no_run,ignore, rust
//! std::env::set_var("PROTOC", protobuf_src::protoc());
//!
//! // Now compile your proto files via prost-build
//! ```
//!

/// `ServiceGenerator` can be used to generate application-specific interfaces

///
/// Service generators are registered with a code generator using the

///
/// A viable scenario is that an RPC framework provides a service generator. It generates a trait
/// describing methods of the service and some glue code to call the methods of the trait, defining
/// details like how errors are handled or if it is asynchronous. Then the user provides an
/// implementation of the generated trait in the application code and plugs it into the framework.

///
/// In case there's something that needs to be output at the end of the generation process, it
/// goes here. Similar to [`generate`](#method.generate), the output should be appended to
/// `buf`.
///
/// An example can be a module or other thing that needs to appear just once, not for each
/// service generated.

/// is called once per `.proto` file.

///
/// This differs from [`finalize`](#method.finalize) by where (and how often) it is called
/// during the service generator life cycle. This method is called once per protobuf package,
/// making it ideal for grouping services within a single package spread across multiple
/// `.proto` files.

/// **`includes`** - Paths to directories in which to search for imports. Directories are searched
/// in order. The `.proto` files passed in **`protos`** must be found in one of the provided
/// include directories.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// This function can fail for a number of reasons:
///
/// - Failure to locate or download `protoc`.
/// - Failure to parse the `.proto`s.
/// - Failure to locate an imported `.proto`.
/// - Failure to compile a `.proto` without a [package specifier][4].
