Seems that non-Rust BEAM users wouldn't be using it directly right? It would be NIF devs that would configure their lib to use the rebar3 plugin?

@bitwalker one thing that we've been thinking about is allowing NIF libraries to ship precompiled binaries in the hex package. I suppose some other options would be to fetch a...

@hansihe do you have anything in mind for this?

I think it might be time to pull in the `failure` crate and provide errors as structs. All `Result`s become: `Result`.

What about something more similar to `serde`'s `rename`? ```rust #[derive(NifUnitEnum)] pub struct KeepCase { #[rustler(rename = "UPPERCASE")] uppercase, lowercase } ``` I imagine that if we end up adding `serde`...

I started working on integrating this into rustler over the weekend 👍

Can you paste some example code that produces this scenario?

hmm...but this isn't real world use case, is it? Seems only useful for debugging purposes.
