Struct Disk

pub struct Disk {
    pub name: String,
    pub rotational: Option<bool>,
    pub removable: Option<bool>,
    pub ram: bool,
    pub lvm: bool,
    pub crypted: bool,
}

what we have most looking like a physical device

Fields

name: String

a name, like “sda”, “sdc”, “nvme0n1”, etc.

rotational: Option<bool>

true for HDD, false for SSD, None for unknown. This information isn’t reliable for USB devices

removable: Option<bool>

whether the system thinks the media is removable. Seems reliable when not mapped

ram: bool

whether it’s a RAM disk

lvm: bool

whether it’s on LVM

crypted: bool

whether it’s a crypted disk

Implementations

impl Disk

pub fn new(name: String) -> Self

pub fn disk_type(&self) -> &'static str

a synthetic code trying to express the essence of the type of media, an empty str being returned when information couldn’t be gathered. This code is for humans and may change in future minor versions.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Disk

fn clone(&self) -> Disk

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Disk

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.
