Crate plugx_input 

Plugx Input (work-in-progress)

A simple and flexible data-structure for configuration and state manipulation of plugins.

Package | Documentation | Repository

Features

Feature	Enables
(none)	Core Input type, From conversions, [Display]
serde	[Serialize]/[Deserialize], infallible Input::serialize
rkyv	Binary archive via Input::to_rkyv_bytes / Input::from_rkyv_bytes

serde or rkyv also exposes error and position for structured deserialize errors.

plugx-input = { version = "1.1", features = ["serde"] }

Demo

use plugx_input::Input;

let mut map = Input::new_map();
map.map_mut().unwrap().insert("key".into(), Input::from([1, 2, 3]));
let inner_list = map
    .map_mut().unwrap()   // &mut Hashmap<String, Input>
    .get_mut("key")       // Option<&mut Input>
    .unwrap()             // &mut Input (which is a list)
    .list_mut().unwrap(); // &mut Vec<Input>
*inner_list.get_mut(0).unwrap() = 3.14.into();
*inner_list.get_mut(1).unwrap() = true.into();
*inner_list.get_mut(2).unwrap() = "hello world".into();
println!("{map}");
// prints:
// {"key": [3.14, true, "hello world"]}
