webdav-serde 0.1.2

webdav-serde

A Rust library for parsing and serializing WebDAV XML responses using quick-xml and serde.

Features

• Parse WebDAV multistatus XML responses
• Serialize Rust structs to WebDAV XML format
• Support for all common WebDAV properties
• Helper methods for working with WebDAV responses

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
webdav-serde = "0.1.2"

Usage

Parsing WebDAV XML

use webdav_serde::Multistatus;

let xml = r#"<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<D:multistatus xmlns:D="DAV:">
  <D:response>
    <D:href>/file.txt</D:href>
    <D:propstat>
      <D:prop>
        <D:getcontentlength>1024</D:getcontentlength>
        <D:getlastmodified>Mon, 13 Nov 2023 14:52:27 GMT</D:getlastmodified>
        <D:resourcetype></D:resourcetype>
      </D:prop>
      <D:status>HTTP/1.1 200 OK</D:status>
    </D:propstat>
  </D:response>
</D:multistatus>"#;

let multistatus = Multistatus::from_xml(xml).unwrap();

for response in &multistatus.response {
    println!("Path: {}", response.href);
    println!("Name: {}", response.name());
    println!("Is directory: {}", response.is_collection());
    
    if let Some(size) = response.propstat.prop.getcontentlength {
        println!("Size: {} bytes", size);
    }
}

Command Line Tool

Parse WebDAV XML files from the command line:

cargo run -- xml/list.xml

This will display:

• Full parsed structure
• Summary of collections and files
• List of files with sizes

Supported Properties

• displayname - Display name of the resource
• creationdate - Creation date
• getcontentlength - File size in bytes
• getcontenttype - MIME type
• getetag - Entity tag
• getlastmodified - Last modification date
• lockdiscovery - Lock information
• resourcetype - Resource type (collection or file)
• supportedlock - Supported lock types

Examples

See the xml/ directory for example WebDAV responses from different servers.
