Enum Format 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum Format {
    Auto,
    Refs,
    CslJson,
    Bibtex,
}

Input-shape discriminator per ADR-0030 D4.

Auto means “detect from path extension and/or content fingerprint”; the explicit variants name a parser directly and skip detection.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Auto

Detect from file extension if a path was supplied, else from content fingerprint; fall through to Format::Refs.

Refs

Plain refs — one identifier per line, # comments, blanks.

CslJson

CSL-JSON array per https://citationstyles.org/.

Bibtex

BibTeX / BibLaTeX. Currently unsupported — parser ships in a follow-up slice.

Implementations

impl Format

pub fn as_wire(&self) -> &'static str

Wire token used by the CLI --format flag and the MCP tool input schema’s format field per ADR-0030 §6.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Format

fn clone(&self) -> Format

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Format

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for Format

fn eq(&self, other: &Format) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Copy for Format

impl Eq for Format
