were a keyword.</p>
<h2 id="usage"><a href="#usage">Usage</a></h2>
<p>As a convention, it is recommended that this macro be invoked within a
module called <code>kw</code> or <code>keyword</code> and that the resulting parser be invoked
with a <code>kw::</code> or <code>keyword::</code> prefix.</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">mod </span>kw {
<span class="macro">syn::custom_keyword!</span>(whatever);
}</code></pre></div>
<p>The generated syntax tree node supports the following operations just like
any built-in keyword token.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><a href="parse/struct.ParseBuffer.html#method.peek">Peeking</a><code>input.peek(kw::whatever)</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="parse/struct.ParseBuffer.html#method.parse">Parsing</a><code>input.parse::&lt;kw::whatever&gt;()?</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="../quote/to_tokens/trait.ToTokens.html">Printing</a><code>quote!( ... #whatever_token ... )</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Construction from a <a href="../proc_macro2/struct.Span.html"><code>Span</code></a><code>let whatever_token = kw::whatever(sp)</code></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Field access to its span — <code>let sp = whatever_token.span</code></p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="example"><a href="#example">Example</a></h2>
<p>This example parses input that looks like <code>bool = true</code> or <code>str = &quot;value&quot;</code>.
The key must be either the identifier <code>bool</code> or the identifier <code>str</code>. If
<code>bool</code>, the value may be either <code>true</code> or <code>false</code>. If <code>str</code>, the value may
be any string literal.</p>
<p>The symbols <code>bool</code> and <code>str</code> are not reserved keywords in Rust so these are
not considered keywords in the <code>syn::token</code> module. Like any other
identifier that is not a keyword, these can be declared as custom keywords
by crates that need to use them as such.</p>
