Struct Protocol

pub struct Protocol {
    pub steps: Vec<Step>,
}

A high-level description of a series of actions to be taken.

This is what the end user will feed in (by way of a form).

Fields

steps: Vec<Step>

The component steps of the protocol.

Implementations

impl Protocol

pub fn with_step(step: Step) -> Self

Creates a single-step protocol.

pub fn validate(&self) -> Result<(), ValidateError>

Ensures the validity of the protocol.

This method is called automatically during the conversion to Program, but it can also be useful to call it manually.

Details

All protocols should end with a perfusion (in the final solution, usually water) for an unspecified duration (i.e. a bath). If this is not the case, something’s wrong with the protocol and we should refuse to run it.

pub fn as_program(&self) -> Result<Program, ValidateError>

Attempts to convert the protocol to a program.

The protocol will first be validated.
