Function fastnbt::value::from_value

pub fn from_value<'de, T>(value: &'de Value) -> Result<T, Error>
where
    T: Deserialize<'de>,

Interpret a fastnbt::Value as an instance of type T.

Example

use serde::Deserialize;
use fastnbt::nbt;

#[derive(Deserialize, Debug)]
struct User {
    fingerprint: String,
    location: String,
}

// The type of `j` is `fastnbt::Value`
let j = nbt!({
    "fingerprint": "0xF9BA143B95FF6D82",
    "location": "Menlo Park, CA"
});

let u: User = fastnbt::from_value(&j).unwrap();
println!("{:#?}", u);

Errors

This conversion can fail if the structure of the Value does not match the structure expected by T, for example if T is a struct type but the Value contains something other than an NBT compound. It can also fail if the structure is correct but T’s implementation of Deserialize decides that something is wrong with the data, for example required struct fields are missing from the NBT compound or some number is too big to fit in the expected primitive type.
