Struct UnescapeTokens 

pub struct UnescapeTokens<'a> { /* private fields */ }

An iterator over a byte slice that yields UnescapedTokens.

This is the foundational, low-level unescaping API. It processes the byte slice, yielding runs of literal bytes as borrowed slices and successfully parsed escape sequences as chars.

If an error is encountered while parsing an escape, the iterator will yield an Err and all subsequent calls to next() will return None.

Created by UnescapeTokens::new.

Implementations

impl<'a> UnescapeTokens<'a>

pub const fn new(bytes: &'a [u8]) -> Self

Creates a new tokenizing unescaper for the given byte slice.

pub const fn remnant(&self) -> &'a [u8]

Returns the remaining unprocessed slice of bytes.

If the iterator encounters an UnexpectedEof error, this method can be used to retrieve the incomplete segment that needs to be stitched with the next chunk in a streaming context.

pub fn decode_utf8(self) -> Result<Cow<'a, str>, DecodeUtf8Error>

Decodes the unescaped byte stream into a UTF-8 string.

This method consumes the iterator and collects all resulting byte chunks into a Cow<[u8]>, which is then validated as UTF-8. If an unescaping error occurs, it’s returned immediately. If the final sequence of bytes is not valid UTF-8, a UTF-8 error is returned.

This is optimized to return a Cow::Borrowed if no escapes were present in the input, avoiding allocation.

Requires the alloc feature.

pub fn decode_utf8_lossy(self) -> Result<Cow<'a, str>, UnescapeError>

Decodes the unescaped byte stream lossily into a UTF-8 string.

This is similar to UnescapeTokens::decode_utf8 but replaces any invalid UTF-8 sequences with the replacement character (U+FFFD) instead of returning an error.

An UnescapeError can still be returned if the JSON escaping itself is invalid.

Requires the alloc feature.

pub fn display_utf8(self) -> DisplayUnescapeTokens<'a>

Returns a wrapper that implements fmt::Display.

If an unescaping error or invalid UTF-8 sequence is encountered, a fmt::Error is returned, which will cause format! and friends to panic.

pub fn display_utf8_lossy(self) -> DisplayUnescapeTokens<'a>

Returns a wrapper that implements [fmt::Display for lossy UTF-8 decoding.

Invalid UTF-8 sequences will be replaced with the replacement character. An unescaping error will still result in a fmt::Error.
