Struct Args

pub struct Args<'a>(/* private fields */);

Stores an IndexMap of Args. See examples.

Implementations

impl<'a> Args<'a>

pub fn new() -> Self

A convenience function for making a new empty Args(). In truth, it just calls default()

pub fn with_capacity(capacity: usize) -> Self

Initializes internal hashmap with a given capacity, to reduce required memory allocations. Potentially useful if you’re planning to call .push() a lot.

pub fn poke<T>(&mut self, name: &'a str) -> Result<&T, DynArgError<'_>>

where T: 'static,

Like get(), but marks the value as used. Because it changes self, it requires mutable access to self. This, of course, may make it unusable for some use cases.

pub fn get<T>(&self, name: &'a str) -> Result<&T, DynArgError<'_>>

where T: 'static,

Retrieve a value by name. It’s recommended to explicitly specify type via generics, e.g.:

use dynarg::Args;
let mut args = Args::default();
args.insert_i32("meaning_of_life", 42);
let arg = args.get::<i32>("meaning_of_life");

pub fn insert(&mut self, name: &'a str, value: Box<dyn Any>)

Inserts a value with a dynamic type. Value must be wrapped in a Box<> pointer. BTW, when will the box keyword syntax be stable? That would make a lot of code more elegant.

pub fn all_used(&self) -> bool

Returns true if every argument is marked as “used”. Returns false otherwise.

pub fn iter_not_used_name(&self) -> impl Iterator<Item = &str>

Returns a iterator of arguments marked as not used.

pub fn iter_used_name(&self) -> impl Iterator<Item = &str>

Returns an iterator of arguments marked as used.

pub fn reset_used_status(&mut self)

Resets the used status of every argument in the IndexMap.

pub fn iter(&self) -> impl Iterator<Item = (&str, &Arg)>
