Interface for navigating/loading/storing history

Required Methods§

source

fn get( &self, index: usize, dir: SearchDirection ) -> Result<Option<SearchResult<'_>>>

Return the history entry at position index, starting from 0.

SearchDirection is useful only for implementations without direct indexing.

source

fn add(&mut self, line: &str) -> Result<bool>

Add a new entry in the history.

source

fn add_owned(&mut self, line: String) -> Result<bool>

Add a new entry in the history.

source

fn len(&self) -> usize

Return the number of entries in the history.

source

fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Return true if the history has no entry.

source

fn set_max_len(&mut self, len: usize) -> Result<()>

Set the maximum length for the history. This function can be called even if there is already some history, the function will make sure to retain just the latest len elements if the new history length value is smaller than the amount of items already inside the history.

Like stifle_history.
