version documentation license

bimap-rs is a pure Rust library for dealing with bijective maps, aiming to feel like an extension of the standard library's data structures whenever possible. There are no external dependencies by default but Serde and no_std compatibility are available through feature flags.

Quick start

To use the latest version of bimap-rs with the default features, add this to your project's Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
bimap = "0.6.3"

You can now run the bimap-rs Hello World!

fn main() {
    // A bijective map between letters of the English alphabet and their positions.
    let mut alphabet = bimap::BiMap::<char, u8>::new();

    alphabet.insert('A', 1);
    // ...
    alphabet.insert('Z', 26);

    println!("A is at position {}", alphabet.get_by_left(&'A').unwrap());
    println!("{} is at position 26", alphabet.get_by_right(&26).unwrap());
}

Feature flags

Flag name Description Enabled by default?
std Standard library usage (HashMap) yes
serde (De)serialization using Serde no

This Cargo.toml shows how these features can be enabled and disabled.

[dependencies]
# I just want to use `bimap-rs`.
bimap = "0.6.3"

# I want to use `bimap-rs` without the Rust standard library.
bimap = { version = "0.6.3", default-features = false }

# I want to use `bimap-rs` with Serde support.
bimap = { version = "0.6.3", features = ["serde"] }
