This is the header only library to work with aggregate types and tuple-like objects (std::tuple, std::pair and std::array).

Features:

1. Get struct from tuple-like object

   struct Person {
       std::string name;
       int age;
       double weight;
   };
   
   ...
   
   std::tuple<std::string, int, double> tuple {"Peter", 10, 20};
   Person person = flow::tul::from_tuple<Person>(tuple);

   person will contain values Peter, 10, 20

2. Write tuple-like objects to ostream

   std::tuple<std::string, int, double> tuple {"Peter", 10, 20};
   std::cout << flow::tul::io(tuple);

   Output

   ("Peter", 10, 20)
   

3. Write tuple-like object to ostream using custom separator

   std::tuple<std::string, char> tuple {"Peter", 'k'};
   std::cout << flow::tul::io(tuple, " * ");

   Output

   "Peter" * 'k'
   

4. Put values from istream to tuple-like object (also supports custom separator)

   std::tuple<std::string, int> tuple;
   std::cin >> flow::tul::io(tuple);
   std::cout << flow::tul::io(tuple);

   Input

   ("Hello", 5)
   

   Output

   ("Hello", 5)
   

5. For each cycle for tuple-like object elements

   void mult_by_3(int& n) {
        n *= 3;
   } 
   
   ...
   
   std::tuple<int, int, int> tuple {1, 2, 3};
   flow::tul::for_each(tuple, mult_by_3);
   std::cout << flow::tul::io(tuple);

   Output

   (3, 6, 9)
   

6. Get aggregate type fields count (since C++20)

   std::cout << flow::tul::aggregate_size_v<Person>;

   or

   std::cout << flow::tul::aggregate_size<Person>::value;

   Output

   3
   

Put directory flow to your project and include tul.hpp header. Nothing to build

googletest is required for run tests.

To run tests follow this steps:

1. If you already have googletest downloaded and built, then you can just put it to the tests directory and go to the next step.

   If you don't have googletest, then clone repository using this command

   git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/RifeX-LA/tul.git
   

   or if you already cloned this repository you need to clone googletest repository to the tests directory using this command

   git clone https://github.com/google/googletest.git
   

2. To build tests in the tests directory:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake ..
   

   On *nix system run

   make
   

   On Windows system you can build project using Visual Studio

3. Run Google_Tests_run file to start the tests

1. C++17 (C++20 for flow::tul::aggregate_size)
2. boost library
3. googletest for run tests
