Crate entities [−] [src]
Provides the raw data needed to convert to and from HTML entities.
extern crate entities; use entities::ENTITIES; fn main() { let entity = ENTITIES .iter() .find(|e| e.entity == ">") .unwrap(); assert_eq!(entity.characters, ">"); assert_eq!(entity.entity, ">"); }
There isn't a 1-to-1 mapping of entities to "characters" which is why this crate provides a flat array rather than a map—the best way to map the entities depends on the problem you're trying to solve.
If you want to create a mapping structure you can make one using static str
slices to reuse the statically allocated strings from this crate e.g.
fn make_mapping() -> HashMap<&'static str, &'static str> { let mut mapping = HashMap::new(); mapping.insert(ENTITIES[0].entity, ENTITIES[0].characters); mapping }
