Enum MatchType 

pub enum MatchType {
    Exact,
    ExactIgnoringWhitespace,
    Fuzzy {
        score: f64,
    },
}

Describes the method used to successfully locate and apply a hunk.

This enum is included in the HunkApplyStatus::Applied variant and provides insight into how mpatch found the location for a hunk, which is useful for logging and diagnostics.

Example

use mpatch::{apply_patch_to_content, parse_single_patch, ApplyOptions, HunkApplyStatus, MatchType};

// The file content has an extra space, which will prevent an `Exact` match.
let original_content = "line 1  \nline 2\n";
let diff = r#"
```diff
--- a/file.txt
+++ b/file.txt
@@ -1,2 +1,2 @@
 line 1
-line 2
+line two
```
"#;
let patch = parse_single_patch(diff)?;
let options = ApplyOptions::new();

let result = apply_patch_to_content(&patch, Some(original_content), &options);
let hunk_status = &result.report.hunk_results[0];

assert!(matches!(hunk_status, HunkApplyStatus::Applied { match_type: MatchType::ExactIgnoringWhitespace, .. }));

Variants

Exact

An exact, character-for-character match of the context/deletion lines.

ExactIgnoringWhitespace

An exact match after ignoring trailing whitespace on each line.

Fuzzy

A fuzzy match found using a similarity algorithm.

Fields

score: f64

The similarity score of the match (0.0 to 1.0).

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for MatchType

fn clone(&self) -> MatchType

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for MatchType

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for MatchType

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

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

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

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
