iri-string 0.5.6

//! URI and IRI types.
//!
//! # URI and IRI
//!
//! IRIs (Internationalized Resource Identifiers) are defined in [RFC 3987],
//! and URIs (Uniform Resource Identifiers) are defined in [RFC 3986].
//!
//! URI consists of only ASCII characters, and is a subset of IRI.
//!
//! IRIs are defined as below:
//!
//! ```text
//! IRI           = scheme ":" ihier-part [ "?" iquery ] [ "#" ifragment ]
//! IRI-reference = IRI / irelative-ref
//! absolute-IRI  = scheme ":" ihier-part [ "?" iquery ]
//! irelative-ref = irelative-part [ "?" iquery ] [ "#" ifragment ]
//!     (`irelative-part` is roughly same as `ihier-part`.)
//! ```
//!
//! Definitions for URIs are almost same, but they cannot have non-ASCII characters.
//!
//! # Types
//!
//! Types can be categorized by:
//!
//! * syntax,
//! * spec, and
//! * ownership.
//!
//! ## Syntax
//!
//! Since URIs and IRIs have almost same syntax and share algorithms, they are implemented by
//! generic types.
//!
//! * [`RiStr`] and [`RiString`]
//!     + String types for `IRI` and `URI` rules.
//! * [`RiAbsoluteStr`] and [`RiAbsoluteString`]
//!     + String types for `absolute-IRI` and `absolute-URI` rules.
//! * [`RiReferenceStr`] and [`RiReferenceString`]
//!     + String types for `IRI-reference` and `URI-reference` rules.
//! * [`RiRelativeStr`] and [`RiRelativeString`]
//!     + String types for `irelative-ref` and `relative-ref` rules.
//! * [`RiFragmentStr`] and [`RiFragmentString`]
//!     + String types for `ifragment` and `fragment` rules.
//!     + Note that these types represents a substring of an IRI / URI references.
//!       They are not intended to used directly as an IRI / URI references.
//!
//! "Ri" stands for "Resource Identifier".
//!
//! ## Spec
//!
//! These types have a type parameter, which represents RFC specification.
//! [`IriSpec`] represents [RFC 3987] spec, and [`UriSpec`] represents [RFC 3986] spec.
//! For example, `RiAbsoluteStr<IriSpec>` can have `absolute-IRI` string value,
//! and `RiReferenceStr<UriSpec>` can have `URI-reference` string value.
//!
//! ## Ownership
//!
//! String-like types have usually two variations, borrowed and owned.
//!
//! Borrowed types (such as `str`, `Path`, `OsStr`) are unsized, and used by reference style.
//! Owned types (such as `String`, `PathBuf`, `OsString`) are sized, and requires heap allocation.
//! Owned types can be coerced to a borrowed type (for example, `&String` is automatically coerced
//! to `&str` in many context).
//!
//! IRI / URI types have same variations, `RiFooStr` and `RiFooString`
//! (`Foo` part represents syntax).
//! They are very similar to `&str` and `String`.
//! `Deref` is implemented, `RiFooStr::len()` is available, `&RiFooString` can be coerced to
//! `&RiFooStr`, `Cow<'_, RiFooStr>` and `Box<RiFooStr>` is available, and so on.
//!
//! # Hierarchy and safe conversion
//!
//! IRI syntaxes have the hierarchy below.
//!
//! ```text
//! RiReferenceStr
//! |-- RiStr
//! |   `-- RiAbsoluteStr
//! `-- RiRelativeStr
//! ```
//!
//! Therefore, the conversions below are safe and cheap:
//!
//! * `RiStr -> RiReferenceStr`
//! * `RiAbsoluteStr -> RiStr`
//! * `RiAbsoluteStr -> RiReferenceStr`
//! * `RiRelativeStr -> RiReferenceStr`
//!
//! For safely convertible types (consider `FooStr -> BarStr` is safe), traits
//! below are implemented:
//!
//! * `AsRef<BarStr> for FooStr`
//! * `AsRef<BarStr> for FooString`
//! * `From<FooString> for BarString`
//! * `PartialEq<FooStr> for BarStr`, and lots of impls like that
//!     + `PartialEq` and `ParitalOrd`.
//!     + Slice, owned, `Cow`, reference, etc...
//!
//! ## Fallible conversions
//!
//! Fallible conversions are implemented from plain string into IRI strings.
//!
//! * `TryFrom<&str> for &FooStr`
//! * `TryFrom<&str> for FooString`
//! * `TryFrom<String> for FooString`
//! * `FromStr for FooString`
//!
//! Some IRI string types provide more convenient methods to convert between IRI types.
//! For example, [`RiReferenceString::into_iri()`] tries to convert an IRI reference into an IRI,
//! and returns `Result<IriString, IriRelativeString>`.
//! This is because an IRI reference is valid as an IRI or a relative IRI reference.
//! Such methods are usually more efficient than using `TryFrom` for plain strings, because they
//! prevents you from losing ownership of a string, and does a conversion without extra memory
//! allocation.
//!
//! # Aliases
//!
//! This module contains type aliases for RFC 3986 URI types and RFC 3987 IRI types.
//!
//! `IriFooStr{,ing}` are aliases of `RiFooStr{,ing}<IriSpec>`, and `UriFooStr{,ing}` are aliases
//! of `RiFooStr{,ing}<UriSpec>`.
//!
//! # Wrapped string types
//!
//! Similar to string types in std (such as `str`, `std::path::Path`, and `std::ffi::OsStr`),
//! IRI string types in this crate provides convenient conversions to:
//!
//! * `std::box::Box`,
//! * `std::borrow::Cow`,
//! * `std::rc::Rc`, and
//! * `std::sync::Arc`.
