Struct Metadata

pub struct Metadata {
    pub buffer_id: i64,
    pub window_id: i64,
    pub tabpage_id: i64,
}

Type identifiers for certain types, determined at runtime.

Fields

buffer_id: i64

window_id: i64

tabpage_id: i64

Implementations

impl Metadata

pub fn new(metadata: Value) -> Result<Metadata, GetMetadataError>

Attempt to read metadata information from the provided value.

This method expects the value to represent this type of data structure:

{
    "types": {
        "Buffer":  { "id": <int> },
        "Window":  { "id": <int> },
        "Tabpage": { "id": <int> }
    }
}

It then pulls out the id values and stores them in the returned Metadata struct so that buffer, window, and tabpage values received from Neovim can be parsed appropriately.
