uaddr

This crate provides a unified address type that can represent:

1. an IPv4 / IPv6 socket address;
2. a UNIX domain socket (UDS) address;
3. a hostname with a port.

Migration from uni-addr

uni-addr was renamed to uaddr since version 0.4.0. The key changes between 0.3.x and 0.4.0 are as follows.

1. Added: type UnixAddr representing a UNIX domain socket address.

   See below for the motivation.

2. Breaking change: type SocketAddr for UNIX platform is now removed.

   Type SocketAddr for UNIX platform was a wrapper over SocketAddr provided by the standard library, which is quite bloated (~128 bytes), and there're also limitations in terms of the APIs. We then replace it with UnixAddr which can be converted to SocketAddr lazily if needed.

3. Added: type HostAddr representing a hostname with a port (hostname:port) was introduced.

   See below for the motivation.

4. Breaking change: type UniAddrInner is now removed.

   Before 0.4.0, the Host variant of the address type enum contained an Arc<str> to store the validated "hostname:port". To prevent callers from bypassing validation and directly constructing the Host variant, the enum type was named UniAddrInner and wrapped with UniAddr. After 0.4.0, we fixed this flawed design.

5. Added: no_std support.
