Struct Message 

pub struct Message { /* private fields */ }

Represents a message that can be sent between scripts or from the engine.

Example

// Define a message type, has to implement Serialize and Deserialize
#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]
struct TestMessage {
    value: i32,
}

// Register the message type
message_type!(TestMessage, "test", "message");

Implementations

impl Message

pub fn new<T: MessageType>(value: &T) -> Self

Creates a new message with the given value.

pub fn meta(&self) -> &MessageMeta

Returns the message type metadata.

pub fn source(&self) -> &MessageSource

Returns the source of the message.

pub fn value<T: MessageType>(&self) -> Result<T, MessageValueError>

Returns the message value as the given type. Returns a MessageValueError if the message has a different type.

pub fn has_type<T: MessageType>(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the message has the given type.

pub fn handle<T: MessageType>( &self, f: impl FnOnce(T) -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>>, ) -> Result<bool, MessageHandleError>

Handle the message with the given handler function. Returns Ok(true) if the message was handled, Ok(false) if the message has a different type, or Err if the message could not be deserialized or the handler function returned an error. The handler function should return Ok(()) if the message was handled successfully.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Message

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

impl Serialize for Message

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,
