Trait pircolate::tag::Tag

pub trait Tag<'a> {
    fn name() -> &'static str;
    fn parse(tag: Option<&'a str>) -> Option<Self>
    where
        Self: Sized;

    fn try_match(tags: TagIter<'a>) -> Option<Self>
    where
        Self: Sized,
    { ... }
}

The tag trait is a trait implemented by types for use with the Message::tag method. It is used to search for a specified tag and provide stronglyy typed access to it.

Required Methods

fn name() -> &'static str

The name of the tag being searched for.

fn parse(tag: Option<&'a str>) -> Option<Self> where
    Self: Sized, 

This method attempts to parse the tag input into a strongly typed representation. If parsing failes, it returns None.

Provided Methods

fn try_match(tags: TagIter<'a>) -> Option<Self> where
    Self: Sized, 

A default implementation that searches for a tag with the associated name and attempts to parse it.
