fake_serialize

A rust macro for implementing dummy implementations of the traits serde::Serialize and serde::Deserialize

Sometimes, you run in the problem to use some trait or function from an external crate, that is constraint to types that implement the traits serde::Serialize or/and serde::Deserialize, even if this is not an requirement for all use cases. Here, using a dummy implementation that just returns an error if serialize or deserialize is calls comes handy.

This crate provides a derive macro that just provides these dummy implementations, e.g.

use fake_serialize::{FakeSerialize,FakeDeserialize};

#[derive(FakeSerialize,FakeDeserialize)]
struct SomeStruct {
    ...
}
