This is a simple project that aims to be a runner for the Advent of Code.

Implement your solution. Let us do the rest.

• Input downloading
• Running your solution
• Benchmarking of your solution (WIP)

• Create a lib project cargo new advent-of-code-2018 --lib
• Add deps to your Cargo.toml:

aoc-runner = "0.1.0"
aoc-runner-derive = "0.1.0"

• Include libs in your lib.rs

extern crate aoc_runner;

#[macro_use]
extern crate aoc_runner_derive;

• Add aoc_lib!{ year = 2018 } at the end of your lib.rs
• Start coding !

just add a #[aoc(day1, part1)] before your function !

#[aoc(day1, part1)]
fn part1(input: &str) -> i32 {
    ...
}

Supported signatures : &str or &[u8] as input, any type implementing display as output. For custom input, see below.

You need to pre-process input in a separated function ? generators are for you !

#[aoc_generator(day2)]
fn input_generator(input: &str) -> Vec<Gift> {
    ...
}

#[aoc(day2, part1)]
fn part1(input: &[Gift]) -> u32 {
    ...
}
