Builder pattern on static functions

[github2023spring]

Java Lombok Builder is able to convert a static method into a BuilderClass.

May I know if it is possible to do the same for Rust lombok?

I haven't heard of it before 🙃
Can you please refer to this functionality in the doc or provide the exact way how it looks and what is solves?
Thanks!

Yes, it looks like something below.

library developer

@Builder(builderMethodName = "builder", builderClassName = "HttpsImmutableClientBuilder")
public static ImmutableClient newHttpsClient(String name) {
     return new ImmutableClient("Https", name);
}

library consumer

HttpsImmutableClientBuilder.builder().name("name").build().

It allows you to write common builder logics into the static method, while the consumer can continue to use builder pattern to generate the object..
