Struct ProcessingContextId 

pub struct ProcessingContextId(/* private fields */);

Processing context identifier value object for type-safe context management

This value object provides type-safe processing context identification with request tracing, processing lifecycle management, and comprehensive validation capabilities. It implements Domain-Driven Design (DDD) value object patterns with immutable semantics.

Key Features

• Type Safety: Strongly-typed processing context identifiers that cannot be confused with other IDs
• Request Tracing: ULID-based time-ordered creation sequence for request flow tracking
• Processing Lifecycle: Natural chronological ordering for audit trails and debugging
• Cross-Platform: Consistent representation across languages and storage systems
• Validation: Comprehensive context-specific validation and business rules
• Serialization: Full serialization support for storage and API integration

Benefits Over Raw ULIDs

• Type Safety: ProcessingContextId cannot be confused with PipelineId or other entity IDs
• Domain Semantics: Clear intent in function signatures and business logic
• Validation: Context-specific validation rules and constraints
• Future Evolution: Extensible for context-specific methods and features

Processing Context Benefits

• Request Tracing: Natural time ordering for request flows and processing sequences
• Type Safety: Cannot be confused with other entity IDs in complex processing workflows
• Audit Trails: Easy tracking of processing context lifecycles and state changes
• Debugging: Clear identification of context creation times for troubleshooting

Usage Examples

Cross-Language Mapping

• Rust: ProcessingContextId newtype wrapper with full validation
• Go: ProcessingContextID struct with equivalent interface
• JSON: String representation of ULID for API compatibility
• Database: TEXT column with ULID string storage

fn deserialize<D>(deserializer: D) -> Result<Self, D::Error>

where D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Display for ProcessingContextId

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl From<ProcessingContextId> for Ulid

fn from(id: ProcessingContextId) -> Self

impl From<Ulid> for ProcessingContextId

fn from(ulid: Ulid) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl FromStr for ProcessingContextId

type Err = PipelineError

The associated error which can be returned from parsing.

fn from_str(s: &str) -> Result<Self, Self::Err>

Parses a string s to return a value of this type.

impl Hash for ProcessingContextId

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl Ord for ProcessingContextId

fn cmp(&self, other: &ProcessingContextId) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.
