Struct Parser 

pub struct Parser { /* private fields */ }

.env file parser.

Construct with Parser::default() for standard behaviour, or [Parser::new(config)] to customise.

Implementations

impl Parser

pub fn new(config: ParserConfig) -> Self

Create a parser with a custom ParserConfig.

pub fn parse_file<P: AsRef<Path>>(&self, path: P) -> ParseResult<EnvFile>

Parse a .env file from a filesystem path.

Accepts any type that implements AsRef<Path> — &str, String, PathBuf, Path, and OsStr all work without conversion.

This restores the generic signature from the old parser. The new parser narrowed it to &str, which forced callers holding a PathBuf to call .to_str().unwrap().

Errors

Returns ParseError::FileReadError if the file cannot be read, or any parse error variant if the content is invalid.

Example

use dotenv_space::core::Parser;

let parser = Parser::default();
let env_file = parser.parse_file(".env")?;
println!("Loaded {} variables", env_file.vars.len());

pub fn parse_content( &self, content: &str, ) -> ParseResult<HashMap<String, String>>

Parse .env content from an in-memory string.

Method name matches the old parser (parse_content) so existing tests and the template command require no changes.

Example

use dotenv_space::core::Parser;

let parser = Parser::default();
let vars = parser.parse_content("KEY=value\nOTHER=123")?;
assert_eq!(vars["KEY"], "value");

Trait Implementations

impl Default for Parser

Correct implementation of the Default trait.

The old parser used a hand-written pub fn default() -> Self method, which triggers clippy::should_implement_trait. This implementation satisfies the trait properly so Parser::default() continues to work at every existing call site without change.

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.
