;;; Commentary:
|
||
|
||
;; This package offers a single macro, `let-alist'. This macro takes a
|
||
;; first argument (whose value must be an alist) and a body.
|
||
;;
|
||
;; The macro expands to a let form containing body, where each dotted
|
||
;; symbol inside body is let-bound to their cdrs in the alist. Dotted
|
||
;; symbol is any symbol starting with a `.'. Only those present in
|
||
;; the body are let-bound and this search is done at compile time.
|
||
;;
|
||
;; For instance, the following code
|
||
;;
|
||
;; (let-alist alist
|
||
;; (if (and .title .body)
|
||
;; .body
|
||
;; .site
|
||
;; .site.contents))
|
||
;;
|
||
;; essentially expands to
|
||
;;
|
||
;; (let ((.title (cdr (assq 'title alist)))
|
||
;; (.body (cdr (assq 'body alist)))
|
||
;; (.site (cdr (assq 'site alist)))
|
||
;; (.site.contents (cdr (assq 'contents (cdr (assq 'site alist))))))
|
||
;; (if (and .title .body)
|
||
;; .body
|
||
;; .site
|
||
;; .site.contents))
|
||
;;
|
||
;; If you nest `let-alist' invocations, the inner one can't access
|
||
;; the variables of the outer one. You can, however, access alists
|
||
;; inside the original alist by using dots inside the symbol, as
|
||
;; displayed in the example above by the `.site.contents'.
