Crate shorten [−] [src]
Objective:
A collection of convenience functions, macros and traits to shorten repetitive code.
Status
Experimental
Version
0.1.3
Example 1:
Shorten the convertion to a String.
s!("Hello")
is the same as String::from("Hello"))
Example 2:
Concatenate two string(s) (slices) and return a string slice.
ss!("Hello", ", world")
is the same as "Hello, world";
The same macro works also with an arbitrarz combination of String objects and string slices
// #[macro_use] extern crate shorten; // use shorten::*; // let s1 = s!("Hello"); // let s2 = s!(", world"); // assert_eq!(ss!(s1, s2), "Hello, world");
Example 3:
// #[macro_use] extern crate shorten; ```rust use shorten::*; let v = fread(".gitignore").unwrap();
// Convert to a String
// Option 1: Safe. Consumes the vector and complains about invalid UTF-8 let s = String::from_utf8(v).expect("Found invalid UTF-8");
// Option 2: Lossy. It turns invalid UTF-8 bytes into � and so no error handling is required let s = String::from_utf8_lossy(&v[..]).into_owned(); // Does NOT consume v ???
// Option 3: Convert to a u8 array (not Vec) and then to a string slice. // The conversion is in-place, and does not require an allocation. You can create a String from the slice if necessary. let s = std::str::from_utf8(&v[..]).unwrap(); // Does NOT consume v ??? ```
