Macro turbobail 

turbobail!() { /* proc-macro */ }

Async bail macro. Resolves arguments then calls anyhow::bail!().

turbobail!("asset {} is not in path {}", asset.ident(), base_path);

Async Formatting

Standard Rust formatting (format!, Display) is synchronous. In turbo-tasks, many values live behind Vc<T> or ResolvedVc<T>, which require .await to read. These macros handle that automatically.

turbofmt! — async format!

Returns Result<RcStr> after resolving all arguments asynchronously.

// Positional arguments
let msg = turbofmt!("asset {} in path {}", asset.ident(), base_path).await?;

// Captured variables
let name = some_vc;
let msg = turbofmt!("hello {name}").await?;

Arguments can be Vc<T>, ResolvedVc<T>, ReadRef<T>, or any type implementing Display — they are all resolved automatically.

Arguments with format specifiers (e.g., {x:?}) use standard Debug/Display formatting directly and are not resolved asynchronously.

turbobail! — async bail!

Same as turbofmt!, but calls anyhow::bail!() with the formatted message. Has implicit .await and return flow.

turbobail!("asset {} is not in path {}", asset.ident(), base_path);

#[derive(ValueToString)]

Generates both ValueToStringRef (returning RcStr) and ValueToString (returning Vc<RcStr>) impls. Fields are resolved asynchronously, so Vc<T> and ResolvedVc<T> fields work directly in format strings.

No attribute — delegates to Display::to_string():

#[derive(ValueToString)]
struct Foo { ... } // requires Display impl

Format string with field references — fields are resolved async:

#[derive(ValueToString)]
#[value_to_string("[{fs}]/{path}")]
struct FileSystemPath { fs: ResolvedVc<...>, path: RcStr }

Format string with explicit expressions:

#[derive(ValueToString)]
#[value_to_string("{}", self.name())]
struct Bar { ... }

Direct expression:

#[derive(ValueToString)]
#[value_to_string(self.inner)]
struct Wrapper { inner: RcStr }

Enums — variants without an attribute default to their name:

#[derive(ValueToString)]
enum Kind {
    Foo,                                    // → "Foo"
    #[value_to_string("custom")]
    Bar,                                    // → "custom"
    #[value_to_string("value is {0}")]
    Baz(ResolvedVc<RcStr>),                 // → "value is ..."
}

ValueToString trait

The underlying async trait. You rarely need to implement this manually — prefer #[derive(ValueToString)] instead.

#[turbo_tasks::value_trait]
pub trait ValueToString {
    fn to_string(self: Vc<Self>) -> Vc<RcStr>;
}

Resolution Priority

When a value is used in turbofmt! or turbobail!, it is resolved using the first matching rule (highest priority first):

Priority	Type	Resolution
1	ValueToStringRef impl	Awaits ValueToStringRef::to_string_ref()
2	Vc<T> / ResolvedVc<T>	Awaits ValueToString::to_string()
3	Display impl	Synchronous Display::to_string()

#[derive(ValueToString)] generates both ValueToStringRef and ValueToString impls, so derived types resolve at priority 1 when used as owned values and at priority 2 when used behind Vc/ResolvedVc.

A type may implement Display for a short synchronous representation while ValueToStringRef provides a richer async format, but this is strongly discouraged and causes confusion. In general, only the sync XOR async formatting functions should be implemented.
