Module view_layer 

Adaptive View Layer.

The database schema knows field names and types but not visual importance. This module lets rustio-admin record that importance once, as a stable ViewSpec, and render generated tables/lists/cards deterministically.

Runtime contract: rendering reads a saved ViewSpec and nothing else. No AI, no dynamic guessing, no non-determinism. Inference (infer) and the future view designer only ever produce a ViewSpec; the saved spec is always the source of truth.

The layer is purely additive and presentation-only. It owns no search, filtering, sorting, pagination, actions, or permissions — when a model has no saved spec, callers fall back to the existing table path unchanged.

Modules

compose

Cell composition — merging several schema fields into one visual unit (e.g. “name over email”, or “title with a trailing status badge”).

infer

Deterministic default inference: schema metadata in, a ViewSpec out.

modes

View modes — the layouts a collection of records can be rendered in.

render

Deterministic rendering: a saved ViewSpec plus raw rows in, a typed, serde-serializable RenderedView out.

roles

Field roles and badge colour intent — the vocabulary of visual importance the database schema can’t express on its own.

spec

The saved ViewSpec — the single source of truth at render time.
