Visitor for the structure of a CBOR item.

The visit is guided by the visitor in the sense that uninteresting arrays, dicts, or some of their values can be skipped by returning false from the respective methods.

Example:

use std::fmt::{Error, Formatter, Write};
use cbor_data::{Cbor, CborOwned, CborValue, Visitor, Tags};

fn pretty_print(value: Cbor) -> Result<String, Error> {
    struct X<'a>(&'a mut String);
    impl<'a> Visitor<'a, Error> for X<'a> {
        fn visit_simple(&mut self, item: CborValue) -> Result<(), Error> {
            write!(self.0, "{}", item.kind)
        }
        fn visit_array_begin(&mut self, size: Option<u64>, tags: Tags<'a>) -> Result<bool, Error> {
            write!(self.0, "[")?;
            Ok(true)
        }
        fn visit_array_index(&mut self, idx: u64) -> Result<bool, Error> {
            if idx > 0 {
                write!(self.0, ", ")?;
            }
            Ok(true)
        }
        fn visit_array_end(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error> {
            write!(self.0, "]")
        }
        fn visit_dict_begin(&mut self, size: Option<u64>, tags: Tags<'a>) -> Result<bool, Error> {
            write!(self.0, "{{")?;
            Ok(true)
        }
        fn visit_dict_key(&mut self, key: CborValue, is_first: bool) -> Result<bool, Error> {
            if !is_first {
                write!(self.0, ", ")?;
            }
            write!(self.0, "{}: ", key)?;
            Ok(true)
        }
        fn visit_dict_end(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error> {
            write!(self.0, "}}")
        }
    }
    let mut s = String::new();
    value.visit(&mut X(&mut s))?;
    Ok(s)
}

];
let cbor = CborOwned::canonical(bytes).expect("invalid CBOR");

let pretty = pretty_print(cbor.borrow()).expect("should always be able to write to a String …");

Provided methods

fn visit_simple(&mut self, item: CborValue<'a>) -> Result<(), Err>[src]

Visit a simple item, i.e. item.kind will neither be Array nor Dict.

fn visit_array_begin(
    &mut self,
    size: Option<u64>,
    tags: Tags<'a>
) -> Result<bool, Err>
[src]

Visit the beginning of an array. size is None for indefinite size encoding. Return false to skip this array entirely, meaning that visit_array_index and visit_array_end will NOT be called for it.

fn visit_array_index(&mut self, index: u64) -> Result<bool, Err>[src]

Visit an array element at the given index. Return false to skip over the element’s contents, otherwise nested items (simple or otherwise) will be visited before visiting the next element or the array’s end.

fn visit_array_end(&mut self) -> Result<(), Err>[src]

Visit the end of the current array.

fn visit_dict_begin(
    &mut self,
    size: Option<u64>,
    tags: Tags<'a>
) -> Result<bool, Err>
[src]

Visit the beginning of an dict. size is None for indefinite size encoding. Return false to skip this dict entirely, meaning that visit_dict_key and visit_dict_end will NOT be called for it.

fn visit_dict_key(
    &mut self,
    key: CborValue<'a>,
    is_first: bool
) -> Result<bool, Err>
[src]

Visit a dict value at the given key. Return false to skip over the value’s contents, otherwise nested items (simple or otherwise) will be visited before visiting the next key or the dict’s end.

In most cases the key will be a string or an integer. In the rare case where a key is a complex struct, you can visit it manually.

fn visit_dict_end(&mut self) -> Result<(), Err>[src]

Visit the end of the current dict.
