escriba_memori/lib.rs
1//! memori (目盛) — the graduation marks an offset was counted in.
2//!
3//! # The problem this vocabulary corners
4//!
5//! An offset into text is a `usize`, and a `usize` says nothing about **which
6//! ruler it was measured on**. escriba measures on three, and they disagree on
7//! every non-ASCII character:
8//!
9//! | scale | `"héllo"` end | who demands it |
10//! |---|---|---|
11//! | bytes | 6 | `regex`, every `&str` index |
12//! | chars | 5 | escriba's own `Position`/match offsets |
13//! | UTF-16 units | 5 | LSP, and anything speaking to an editor client |
14//!
15//! Passing one where another is expected compiles perfectly and is wrong only
16//! for users with non-ASCII text — the worst possible failure profile, because
17//! it survives every test written in English.
18//!
19//! Five distinct bugs in one session were this class. That is the signal a
20//! primitive is announcing itself rather than five tasks:
21//!
22//! 1. a commit stepping from the wrong anchor,
23//! 2. `saturating_sub(1)` making offset 0 unreachable,
24//! 3. match offsets used against text that had since been edited,
25//! 4. byte/char/UTF-16 conversion correct only because one function guarded it,
26//! 5. an exclusive-vs-inclusive endpoint chosen by picking a function name.
27//!
28//! # The three axes, made orthogonal
29//!
30//! - **Scale** — [`Offset<S>`] is phantom-tagged, so `Offset<Bytes>` and
31//! `Offset<Chars>` are different types and mixing them is a compile error.
32//! Conversion is possible *only* through a [`Ruler`], which cannot exist
33//! without the text it measures.
34//! - **Bound** — [`Bound`] makes "does the endpoint count itself?" a value the
35//! caller states, not a function name they must pick correctly, and not an
36//! arithmetic fudge at the call site.
37//! - **Freshness** — [`Anchored`] carries the [`EditGen`] an offset was
38//! computed against, so using it after an edit is a `None` rather than a
39//! silently wrong column.
40//!
41//! # Tier honesty
42//!
43//! Scale-mixing is **truly unrepresentable** (a type error, `E0308`). Bound and
44//! freshness are **parse-time-rejected** at this border — you can still build a
45//! `Ruler` for the wrong text. The full ledger is in `docs/memori.md`.
46//!
47//! The `(defmemori …)` tatara-lisp surface is a NAMED FOLLOW-UP, not shipped.
48//! This crate is the typed Rust border only.
49//!
50//! # Why a leaf crate
51//!
52//! It has **no dependencies, deliberately**. `escriba-core` imports
53//! `escriba_search::Direction`, so core depends on SEARCH — and a positioning
54//! primitive living in core would be invisible to the search engine, which is
55//! where the `step`/`step_inclusive` twins [`Bound`] exists to replace live.
56//! The vocabulary has to sit below both, so it does.
