[−][src]Crate unic_langid

unic-langid is a core API for parsing, manipulating, and serializing Unicode Language Identifiers.

The crate provides algorithms for parsing a string into a well-formed language identifier as defined by UTS #35: Unicode LDML 3.1 Unicode Language Identifier.

Examples

use unic_langid::LanguageIdentifier;
use unic_langid::subtags::{Language, Script, Region};

let mut li: LanguageIdentifier = "en-US".parse()
    .expect("Parsing failed.");

let lang: Language = "en".parse().expect("Parsing failed.");
let region: Region = "US".parse().expect("Parsing failed.");
assert_eq!(li.language, lang);
assert_eq!(li.script, None);
assert_eq!(li.region, Some(region));
assert_eq!(li.variants().len(), 0);

let region: Region = "GB".parse().expect("Parsing failed.");
li.region = Some(region);

assert_eq!(li.to_string(), "en-GB");

For more details, see LanguageIdentifier.

Optional features

`langid!` and `langids!` macros

If feature = "macros" is selected, the crate provides a procedural macro which allows to construct build-time well-formed language identifiers with zero-cost at runtime.

use unic_langid::{langid, langids, lang, region, script, variant};
use unic_langid::subtags::{Language, Script, Region, Variant};
use std::str::FromStr;

let es_ar = langid!("es-AR");
let en_us = langid!("en-US");

assert_eq!(&es_ar.to_string(), "es-AR");
assert_eq!(&en_us.to_string(), "en-US");

let lang_ids = langids!("es-AR", "en-US", "de");

assert_eq!(lang_ids[0], "es-AR");
assert_eq!(lang_ids[1], "en-US");
assert_eq!(lang_ids[2], "de");

assert_eq!(lang!("pl"), "pl");
assert_eq!(lang!("pl"), Language::from_str("pl").unwrap());

assert_eq!(script!("latn"), "Latn");
assert_eq!(script!("latn"), Script::from_str("Latn").unwrap());

assert_eq!(region!("us"), "US");
assert_eq!(region!("us"), Region::from_str("us").unwrap());

assert_eq!(variant!("macos"), "macos");
assert_eq!(variant!("macos"), Variant::from_str("macos").unwrap());

The macros produce instances of LanguageIdentifier the same way as parsing from &str does, but since the parsing is performed at build time, it doesn't need a Result.

At the moment langid! can also be used for const variables, but only if no variants are used.

The macros are optional to reduce the dependency chain and compilation time of unic-langid.

Likely Subtags

If feature = "likelysubtags" is selected, the LanguageIdentifier gains two more methods:

add_likely_subtags
remove_likely_subtags

Both of them operate in place updating the existing LanguageIdentifier by either extending subtags to most likely values, or removing the subtags that are not needed.

Both methods return a bool that indicates if the identifier has been modified.

use unic_langid::LanuageIdentifier;

let mut li: LanguageIdentifier = "fr-FR".parse()
    .expect("Parsing failed.");

assert_eq!(li.add_likely_subtags(), true);
assert_eq!(li, "fr-Latn-FR");

assert_eq!(li.remove_likely_subtags(), true);
assert_eq!(li, "fr");

The feature is optional because it increases the binary size of the library by including a data table for CLDR likelySubtags.

CharacterDirection	Enum representing available character direction orientations.
LanguageIdentifierError	Enum with errors that can be returned by LanguageIdentifier.
