only in a CTFE.

I would like to loop over an array of names passed to a me(I 
don't know their contents beforehand) and get the attributes.

I've tried to use a mixin but I can't get the mixin to work on 
the string name...

e.g., mixin("alias a = __traits(getAttributes, "~type~");");

You need to use a typetuple as well:

import std.typetuple;
enum attribute;

 attribute struct Foo {}

void main ()
{
     alias a = TypeTuple!(__traits(getAttributes, mixin("Foo")));
     pragma(msg, a);
}
