Macro for typesafe GSettings key access

gsettings-macro's Issues

Add support for child schemas

Please add support for child schemas :)

`connect_#key_changed` ergonomics could be improved

Currently the closure passed in to connect_#key_changed functions must be a Fn(&gio::Settings) closure, however this isn't nice as you lose all the benefits of this macro once you're inside that closure.

This is a snippet from my project where I use your macro

            settings.connect_is_history_enabled_changed(clone!(@strong stack => move |settings| {
                    let is_history_enabled = settings.boolean("is-history-enabled");
                    if is_history_enabled {
                        stack.set_visible_child_name("image-grid");
                    } else {
                        stack.set_visible_child_name("message");
                    }
            }));

and I don't really like it.

I think making it be Fn(&GeneratedSettingsStruct), or Fn(&GeneratedSettingsStruct, TypeOf#key) would improve its ergonomics.

Automatically convert dbus types into rust types

Currently, we do them manually as seen in the link. It would be great to automatically map them and create exceptions for cases like &[&str].
