Function serde_aux::field_attributes::deserialize_bool_from_anything

pub fn deserialize_bool_from_anything<'de, D>(
    deserializer: D
) -> Result<bool, D::Error>where
    D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserializes boolean from anything (string, number, boolean). If input is a string, it is expected, that it is possible to convert it to a number. The return boolean is true if the number was either 1 or 1.0 after parsing.

Example

#[macro_use]
extern crate serde_derive;
extern crate serde_json;
extern crate serde_aux;
extern crate serde;

use serde_aux::prelude::*;

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, Debug)]
struct MyStruct {
    #[serde(deserialize_with = "deserialize_bool_from_anything")]
    boolean: bool,
}
fn main() {
    let s = r#"{ "boolean": 1.0 }"#;
    let a: MyStruct = serde_json::from_str(s).unwrap();
    assert!(a.boolean);

    let s = r#"{ "boolean": 0.0 }"#;
    let a: MyStruct = serde_json::from_str(s).unwrap();
    assert!(!a.boolean);

    let s = r#"{ "boolean": 2.3 }"#;
    assert!(serde_json::from_str::<MyStruct>(s).is_err());

    let s = r#"{ "boolean": 1 }"#;
    let a: MyStruct = serde_json::from_str(s).unwrap();
    assert!(a.boolean);

    let s = r#"{ "boolean": 0 }"#;

    assert!(!a.boolean);

    let s = r#"{ "boolean": 2 }"#;
