Enum EdgeTarget 

pub enum EdgeTarget {
    Local(String),
    Grounded {
        ontology: String,
        atom: ContentAddress,
    },
}

The endpoint of a typed edge.

Most edges are LOCAL: a name resolved within the node’s OWN ontology, bound by that ontology’s Merkle root (the form every .prx has carried so far). A GROUNDED edge is the foreign-atom slot — it crosses INTO another ontology, naming an atom by its content ContentAddress in a declared connected ontology. It is the typed cross-ontology morphism the grounding vocabulary rides (lexical denotes and the other kinds): a span endpoint resolved by content-address agreement across archives, not by name within one.

Byte-exactness

Local serializes byte-IDENTICALLY to the bare string target it replaced, so every node minted before grounding existed keeps its exact content address — the codec migration is invisible to all-local archives (the committed pins re-verify unchanged). Grounded serializes as a CBOR map, which the decoder tells apart from a string by major type (deserialize_any); the common local case spends no discriminator byte.

Variants

Local(String)

A same-ontology target, by name — resolved within the node’s ontology.

Grounded

A cross-ontology target: an atom of ontology named by its content atom address (the foreign-atom slot; resolved by address agreement).

Fields

ontology: String

The connected ontology the atom lives in.

atom: ContentAddress

The content address of the foreign atom.

Implementations

impl EdgeTarget

pub fn local_name(&self) -> Option<&str>

The local target name, or None if this edge grounds into another ontology. Traversers of the LOCAL graph use this; it forces the foreign case to be handled explicitly, never silently read as a local name.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for EdgeTarget

fn clone(&self) -> EdgeTarget

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for EdgeTarget

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for EdgeTarget

fn deserialize<D: Deserializer<'de>>(deserializer: D) -> Result<Self, D::Error>

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Eq for EdgeTarget

impl From<&str> for EdgeTarget

fn from(name: &str) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<String> for EdgeTarget

fn from(name: String) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl Hash for EdgeTarget

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl Ord for EdgeTarget

fn cmp(&self, other: &EdgeTarget) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

impl PartialEq for EdgeTarget

fn eq(&self, other: &EdgeTarget) -> 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.

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &EdgeTarget) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

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

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

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

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

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

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

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

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.

impl Serialize for EdgeTarget

fn serialize<S: Serializer>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
