Struct Device 

pub struct Device {
    pub serialized_py_object: Vec<u8>,
    pub callable_methods: HashMap<String, String>,
}

Represents a Miio device with its associated properties and Python object.

The Device struct includes data necessary for device communication and method invocation, along with functionalities to serialize/deserialize the device configuration.

Fields

serialized_py_object: Vec<u8>

A serialized representation of the underlying Python object as bytes.

callable_methods: HashMap<String, String>

A map of callable method names to their corresponding Python signatures.

Implementations

impl Device

pub fn deserialize_json(json_str: &str) -> Result<Device, Error>

Deserializes a JSON string into a Device instance.

This function leverages Serde’s JSON deserializer to parse the provided JSON string and convert it into a corresponding Device instance. The JSON must correctly represent the Device struct’s fields.

Arguments

• json_str - A string slice that holds the JSON representation of a Device.

Returns

• Ok(Device) containing the Device instance if deserialization succeeds.
• Err(serde_json::Error) if parsing fails due to invalid JSON or type mismatch.

pub fn serialize_json(&self) -> Result<String, Error>

Serializes the Device instance into a JSON string using pretty formatting.

This function leverages Serde’s JSON serializer with pretty print enabled to convert the Device struct into a human-readable JSON string. The output includes appropriate whitespace and line breaks, making it easier to read and debug.

Returns

• Ok(String) containing the formatted JSON representation of the Device if serialization succeeds.
• Err(serde_json::Error) if any serialization error occurs.

pub fn serialize_to_file(&self, folder: &str, file_name: &str) -> Result<()>

Serializes the Device instance to a JSON file.

Arguments

• folder - The directory where the file will be saved.
• file_name - The name of the file to create.

Returns

• Ok(()) on success, or an std::io::Error on failure.

pub fn deserialize_from_file(folder: &str, file_name: &str) -> Result<Device>

Deserializes a Device instance from a JSON file.

Arguments

• folder - The directory containing the file.
• file_name - The name of the file to read.

Returns

• Ok(Device) if deserialization is successful.
• Err(std::io::Error) if an error occurs during file read or parsing.

pub fn create_device( ip: &str, token: &str, device_type: &str, ) -> Result<Device, PyErr>

Creates a new Device instance by invoking the Python function.

This function calls the Python module to create a device and retrieve its properties, including serialized state and callable methods.

Arguments

• ip - The IP address of the device.
• token - The token used for authentication.
• device_type - The type of the device.

Returns

• Ok(Device) on success.
• Err(PyErr) if any Python call fails.

pub fn call_method( &self, method_name: &str, args: Vec<&str>, ) -> Result<String, PyErr>

Calls a method on the device by invoking the corresponding Python function.

This function sends a command to the device through Python and returns the result.

Arguments

• method_name - The name of the method to be called.
• args - A vector of string arguments for the method.

Returns

• Ok(String) containing the result if successful.
• Err(PyErr) if the Python call fails.
