Enum figment::value::magic::Either

pub enum Either<A, B> {
    Left(A),
    Right(B),
}

(De)serializes as either a magic value A or any other deserializable value B.

An Either<A, B> deserializes as either an A or B, whichever succeeds first.

The usual Either implementation or an “untagged” enum does not allow its internal values to provide hints to the deserializer. These hints are required for magic values to work. By contrast, this Either does provide the appropriate hints.

Example

use serde::{Serialize, Deserialize};
use figment::{Figment, value::magic::{Either, RelativePathBuf, Tagged}};

#[derive(Debug, PartialEq, Deserialize, Serialize)]
struct Config {
    int_or_str: Either<Tagged<usize>, String>,
    path_or_bytes: Either<RelativePathBuf, Vec<u8>>,
}

fn figment<A: Serialize, B: Serialize>(a: A, b: B) -> Figment {
    Figment::from(("int_or_str", a)).merge(("path_or_bytes", b))
}

let config: Config = figment(10, "/a/b").extract().unwrap();
assert_eq!(config.int_or_str, Either::Left(10.into()));
assert_eq!(config.path_or_bytes, Either::Left("/a/b".into()));

let config: Config = figment("hi", "c/d").extract().unwrap();
assert_eq!(config.int_or_str, Either::Right("hi".into()));
assert_eq!(config.path_or_bytes, Either::Left("c/d".into()));

let config: Config = figment(123, &[1, 2, 3]).extract().unwrap();
assert_eq!(config.int_or_str, Either::Left(123.into()));
assert_eq!(config.path_or_bytes, Either::Right(vec![1, 2, 3].into()));

let config: Config = figment("boo!", &[4, 5, 6]).extract().unwrap();
assert_eq!(config.int_or_str, Either::Right("boo!".into()));
assert_eq!(config.path_or_bytes, Either::Right(vec![4, 5, 6].into()));

let config: Config = Figment::from(figment::providers::Serialized::defaults(Config {
    int_or_str: Either::Left(10.into()),
    path_or_bytes: Either::Left("a/b/c".into()),
})).extract().unwrap();

assert_eq!(config.int_or_str, Either::Left(10.into()));
assert_eq!(config.path_or_bytes, Either::Left("a/b/c".into()));

let config: Config = Figment::from(figment::providers::Serialized::defaults(Config {
    int_or_str: Either::Right("hi".into()),
    path_or_bytes: Either::Right(vec![3, 7, 13]),
})).extract().unwrap();

assert_eq!(config.int_or_str, Either::Right("hi".into()));
assert_eq!(config.path_or_bytes, Either::Right(vec![3, 7, 13]));
