Expand description

The facett component contract. Every facet — graph, map, pipeline, table, the ported nornir viewers — implements this, so consumers (korp, nornir, …) compose them uniformly and get headless robot-testing for free.

The three things a component owes its host:

  1. a title (tab label / panel heading),
  2. how to draw itself into egui,
  3. its observable state as JSON — dumped to $APP_STATE for headless assertions. Rule: every visible list/status/count goes in state_json.

Required Methods§

Source

fn title(&self) -> &str

Source

fn ui(&mut self, ui: &mut Ui)

Source

fn state_json(&self) -> Value

Provided Methods§

Source

fn caps(&self) -> FacetCaps

What this facet can do. Override to opt into capabilities.

Source

fn scale(&self) -> f32

Current uniform scale (1.0 = native). Override if caps().scalable.

Source

fn set_scale(&mut self, _scale: f32)

Set the uniform scale; clamp internally. Default no-op (not scalable).

Source

fn selection_json(&self) -> Value

The current selection as JSON (also folded into state_json by convention). Null when nothing/none selectable.

Source

fn copy(&mut self) -> Option<String>

Clipboard hooks — see clipboard.rs. Defaults: nothing to give/take. Returns the text to place on the clipboard (None = nothing copyable now).

Source

fn cut(&mut self) -> Option<String>

Like copy, but also removes the selection. Default delegates to copy.

Source

fn paste(&mut self, _text: &str) -> bool

Accept pasted text. Returns true if consumed.

Source

fn as_any_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut (dyn Any + 'static)>

Optional downcast handle for hosts that need typed access to a specific facet living inside a FacetDeck (e.g. a robot-UI driver clicking an app-level control that must forward to a concrete component’s own API). Defaulted to None so no existing facet has to change; a component opts in by returning Some(self).

Dyn Compatibility§

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
