Struct libconfig::types::Config

[src]
pub struct Config { /* fields omitted */ }The top-level Config type that represents a configuration
Methods
impl Config[src]
fn new(sl: SettingsList) -> Config
Creates a new wrapper Config to hold a SettingsList
fn lookup(&self, path: &str) -> Option<&Value>
Looks up a value in a configuration. A path is a dot-separated list of settings
describing the path of the desired value in the configuration.
Returns None if the path is invalid. A path is invalid if it is not syntactically
well-formed, if it attempts to index an array or list beyond the limit, or if it
includes an unknown setting.
Examples
Suppose we have loaded a configuration that consists of:
my_string = "hello";
a_list = ([1, 2, 3], true, { x = 4; }, "good bye");
Then, the path to retrieve "hello" is my_string.
The path to retrieve true inside a_list would be a_list.[1].
The path to retrieve the setting x inside a_list would be alist.[2].x.
Here's a small demonstration:
use config::reader::from_str; let my_conf = from_str("my_string = \"hello\"; a_list = ([1, 2, 3], true, { x = 4; }, \"good_bye\");").unwrap(); let my_str_value = my_conf.lookup("my_string"); assert!(my_str_value.is_some()); let my_boolean_value = my_conf.lookup("a_list.[1]"); assert!(my_boolean_value.is_some()); let my_x_setting = my_conf.lookup("a_list.[2].x"); assert!(my_x_setting.is_some());
fn lookup_boolean(&self, path: &str) -> Option<bool>
A convenient wrapper around lookup() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a generic Value.
Returns None in the same way lookup() does; or if the underlying Value
type does not match with the requested type - in this case, bool.
fn lookup_integer32(&self, path: &str) -> Option<i32>
A convenient wrapper around lookup() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a generic Value.
Returns None in the same way lookup() does; or if the underlying Value
type does not match with the requested type - in this case, i32.
fn lookup_integer64(&self, path: &str) -> Option<i64>
A convenient wrapper around lookup() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a generic Value.
Returns None in the same way lookup() does; or if the underlying Value
type does not match with the requested type - in this case, i64.
fn lookup_floating32(&self, path: &str) -> Option<f32>
A convenient wrapper around lookup() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a generic Value.
Returns None in the same way lookup() does; or if the underlying Value
type does not match with the requested type - in this case, f32.
fn lookup_floating64(&self, path: &str) -> Option<f64>
A convenient wrapper around lookup() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a generic Value.
Returns None in the same way lookup() does; or if the underlying Value
type does not match with the requested type - in this case, f64.
fn lookup_str(&self, path: &str) -> Option<&str>
A convenient wrapper around lookup() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a generic Value.
Returns None in the same way lookup() does; or if the underlying Value
type does not match with the requested type - in this case, String.
fn lookup_boolean_or(&self, path: &str, default: bool) -> bool
A convenient wrapper around lookup_boolean() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a boolean Value.
If either of lookup_boolean() or lookup return None,
then the user-provided default value is returned.
fn lookup_integer32_or(&self, path: &str, default: i32) -> i32
A convenient wrapper around lookup_integer32() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of an integer32 Value.
If either of lookup_integer32() or lookup return None,
then the user-provided default value is returned.
fn lookup_integer64_or(&self, path: &str, default: i64) -> i64
A convenient wrapper around lookup_integer64() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of an integer64 Value.
If either of lookup_integer64() or lookup return None,
then the user-provided default value is returned.
fn lookup_floating32_or(&self, path: &str, default: f32) -> f32
A convenient wrapper around lookup_floating32() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of an floating32 Value.
If either of lookup_floating32() or lookup return None,
then the user-provided default value is returned.
fn lookup_floating64_or(&self, path: &str, default: f64) -> f64
A convenient wrapper around lookup_floating64() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of an floating64 Value. If either of lookup_floating64() or lookup return None,
then the user-provided default value is returned.
fn lookup_str_or<'a>(&'a self, path: &str, default: &'a str) -> &'a str
A convenient wrapper around lookup_str() that unwraps the underlying primitive
type of a string Value.
If either of lookup_str() or lookup return None,
then the user-provided default value is returned.
