Enum Value 

pub enum Value<'a> {
    Null,
    Bool(bool),
    String(Cow<'a, str>),
    Number(Number),
    Binary(&'a [u8]),
    Date(Date),
    Timestamp(Timestamp),
    TimestampTz(TimestampTz),
    Interval(Interval),
    Array(Vec<Self>),
    Object(Object<'a>),
}

Represents a JSON or extended JSON value.

This enum supports both standard JSON types (Null, Bool, String, Number, Array, Object) and extended types for specialized data representation (Binary, Date, Timestamp, etc.). The extended types provide additional functionality beyond the JSON specification, making this implementation more suitable for database applications and other systems requiring richer data type support.

Variants

Null

Represents a JSON null value

Bool(bool)

Represents a JSON boolean value (true or false)

String(Cow<'a, str>)

Represents a JSON string value

Number(Number)

Represents a JSON number value with various internal representations

Binary(&'a [u8])

Extended type: Represents binary data not supported in standard JSON Useful for storing raw bytes, images, or other binary content

Date(Date)

Extended type: Represents a calendar date (year, month, day) Stored as days since epoch for efficient comparison and manipulation

Timestamp(Timestamp)

Extended type: Represents a timestamp without timezone information Stored as microseconds since epoch

TimestampTz(TimestampTz)

Extended type: Represents a timestamp with timezone information Includes both timestamp and timezone offset

Interval(Interval)

Extended type: Represents a time interval or duration Useful for time difference calculations and scheduling

Array(Vec<Self>)

Represents a JSON array of values

Object(Object<'a>)

Represents a JSON object as key-value pairs

Implementations

impl<'a> Value<'a>

pub fn to_vec(&self) -> Vec<u8>

Serializes this value into JSONB bytes and returns the buffer.

Trait Implementations

impl<'a> Clone for Value<'a>

fn clone(&self) -> Self

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Value<'_>

fn fmt(&self, formatter: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'a> Default for Value<'a>

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl Display for Value<'_>

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Eq for Value<'_>

impl Ord for Value<'_>

fn cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

fn clamp_to<R>(self, range: R) -> Self

where Self: Sized, R: ClampBounds<Self>,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (clamp_to)

Restrict a value to a certain range.

impl PartialEq for Value<'_>

fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool

Equality operator ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Inequality operator !=.

impl PartialOrd for Value<'_>

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.
