Trait Source 

pub trait Source: Send + Sync {
    // Required methods
    fn find(&self, name: &str) -> Result<Option<FindResult>>;
    fn list_modules(&self) -> Result<Vec<String>>;
}

Provides access to MIB files for the loading pipeline.

Implementations must be Send + Sync to support parallel loading. The library ships several constructors:

• file() / files() - individual files on disk
• dir / dir_with_config - directory tree on disk
• dirs() - multiple directory trees combined
• memory / memory_modules - in-memory content
• chain - combine arbitrary sources in priority order

Required Methods

fn find(&self, name: &str) -> Result<Option<FindResult>>

Look up a module by name and return its content and source path.

Returns Ok(None) if this source does not contain the named module. The name parameter is the MIB module name (e.g. "IF-MIB"), not a filename.

Errors

Returns io::Error if the underlying storage cannot be read (e.g. file I/O failure, permission denied).

fn list_modules(&self) -> Result<Vec<String>>

List all module names available from this source.

The returned names should match what find accepts. Callers use this to discover modules when no explicit module list is provided to the loader.

Errors

Returns io::Error if listing fails (e.g. directory read error).
