Expand description

A data format that can serialize any data structure supported by Serde.

The role of this trait is to define the serialization half of the Serde data model, which is a way to categorize every Rust data structure into one of 29 possible types. Each method of the Serializer trait corresponds to one of the types of the data model.

Implementations of Serialize map themselves into this data model by invoking exactly one of the Serializer methods.

The types that make up the Serde data model are:

  • 14 primitive types
    • bool
    • i8, i16, i32, i64, i128
    • u8, u16, u32, u64, u128
    • f32, f64
    • char
  • string
    • UTF-8 bytes with a length and no null terminator.
    • When serializing, all strings are handled equally. When deserializing, there are three flavors of strings: transient, owned, and borrowed.
  • byte array - [u8]
    • Similar to strings, during deserialization byte arrays can be transient, owned, or borrowed.
  • option
    • Either none or some value.
  • unit
    • The type of () in Rust. It represents an anonymous value containing no data.
  • unit_struct
    • For example struct Unit or PhantomData<T>. It represents a named value containing no data.
  • unit_variant
    • For example the E::A and E::B in enum E { A, B }.
  • newtype_struct
    • For example struct Millimeters(u8).
  • newtype_variant
    • For example the E::N in enum E { N(u8) }.
  • seq
    • A variably sized heterogeneous sequence of values, for example Vec<T> or HashSet<T>. When serializing, the length may or may not be known before iterating through all the data. When deserializing, the length is determined by looking at the serialized data.
  • tuple
    • A statically sized heterogeneous sequence of values for which the length will be known at deserialization time without looking at the serialized data, for example (u8,) or (String, u64, Vec<T>) or [u64; 10].
  • tuple_struct
    • A named tuple, for example struct Rgb(u8, u8, u8).
  • tuple_variant
    • For example the E::T in enum E { T(u8, u8) }.
  • map
    • A heterogeneous key-value pairing, for example BTreeMap<K, V>.
  • struct
    • A heterogeneous key-value pairing in which the keys are strings and will be known at deserialization time without looking at the serialized data, for example struct S { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 }.
  • struct_variant
    • For example the E::S in enum E { S { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 } }.

Many Serde serializers produce text or binary data as output, for example JSON or Postcard. This is not a requirement of the Serializer trait, and there are serializers that do not produce text or binary output. One example is the serde_json::value::Serializer (distinct from the main serde_json serializer) that produces a serde_json::Value data structure in memory as output.

Example implementation

The example data format presented on the website contains example code for a basic JSON Serializer.

Required Associated Types§

source

type Ok

The output type produced by this Serializer during successful serialization. Most serializers that produce text or binary output should set Ok = () and serialize into an io::Write or buffer contained within the Serializer instance. Serializers that build in-memory data structures may be simplified by using Ok to propagate the data structure around.

source

type Error: Error

The error type when some error occurs during serialization.

source

type SerializeSeq: SerializeSeq<Ok = Self::Ok, Error = Self::Error>

Type returned from serialize_seq for serializing the content of the sequence.

source

type SerializeTuple: SerializeTuple<Ok = Self::Ok, Error = Self::Error>

Type returned from serialize_tuple for serializing the content of the tuple.

source

type SerializeTupleStruct: SerializeTupleStruct<Ok = Self::Ok, Error = Self::Error>

Type returned from serialize_tuple_struct for serializing the content of the tuple struct.

source

type SerializeTupleVariant: SerializeTupleVariant<Ok = Self::Ok, Error = Self::Error>

Type returned from serialize_tuple_variant for serializing the content of the tuple variant.

source

type SerializeMap: SerializeMap<Ok = Self::Ok, Error = Self::Error>

Type returned from serialize_map for serializing the content of the map.

source

type SerializeStruct: SerializeStruct<Ok = Self::Ok, Error = Self::Error>

Type returned from serialize_struct for serializing the content of the struct.

    }
}

    }
}
source

fn serialize_u32(self, v: u32) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>

Serialize a u32 value.

If the format does not differentiate between u32 and u64, a reasonable implementation would be to cast the value to u64 and forward to serialize_u64.

    }
}
source

fn serialize_f32(self, v: f32) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>

    }
}

    }
}
source

fn serialize_unit_struct( self, name: &'static str ) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>

    where
        S: Serializer,

    A,
    B,
}

        match *self {
            E::A => serializer.serialize_unit_variant("E", 0, "A"),

}
source

fn serialize_tuple_struct( self, name: &'static str, len: usize ) -> Result<Self::SerializeTupleStruct, Self::Error>

Begin to serialize a tuple struct like struct Rgb(u8, u8, u8). This call must be followed by zero or more calls to serialize_field, then a call to end.

The name is the name of the tuple struct and the len is the number of data fields that will be serialized.

use serde::ser::{Serialize, SerializeTupleStruct, Serializer};

struct Rgb(u8, u8, u8);

Begin to serialize a struct like struct Rgb { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 }. This call must be followed by zero or more calls to serialize_field, then a call to end.

The name is the name of the struct and the len is the number of data fields that will be serialized.

use serde::ser::{Serialize, SerializeStruct, Serializer};

struct Rgb {
    r: u8,
    g: u8,
    b: u8,
}

impl Serialize for Rgb {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        let mut rgb = serializer.serialize_struct("Rgb", 3)?;
        rgb.serialize_field("r", &self.r)?;
        rgb.serialize_field("g", &self.g)?;
        rgb.serialize_field("b", &self.b)?;
        rgb.end()
    }
}

fn serialize_struct_variant( self, name: &'static str, variant_index: u32, variant: &'static str, len: usize ) -> Result<Self::SerializeStructVariant, Self::Error>

Begin to serialize a struct variant like E::S in enum E { S { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 } }. This call must be followed by zero or more calls to serialize_field, then a call to end.

The name is the name of the enum, the variant_index is the index of this variant within the enum, the variant is the name of the variant, and the len is the number of data fields that will be serialized.

use serde::ser::{Serialize, SerializeStructVariant, Serializer};

enum E {
    S { r: u8, g: u8, b: u8 },
}

impl Serialize for E {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        match *self {
            E::S {
                ref r,
                ref g,
                ref b,
            } => {
                let mut sv = serializer.serialize_struct_variant("E", 0, "S", 3)?;
                sv.serialize_field("r", r)?;
                sv.serialize_field("g", g)?;
                sv.serialize_field("b", b)?;
                sv.end()
            }
        }
    }
}

Provided Methods§

source

fn serialize_i128(self, v: i128) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>

Serialize an i128 value.

impl Serialize for i128 {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        serializer.serialize_i128(*self)
    }
}

The default behavior unconditionally returns an error.

source

fn serialize_u128(self, v: u128) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>

Serialize a u128 value.

impl Serialize for u128 {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        serializer.serialize_u128(*self)
    }
}

The default behavior unconditionally returns an error.

source

fn collect_seq<I>(self, iter: I) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>where I: IntoIterator, <I as IntoIterator>::Item: Serialize,

Collect an iterator as a sequence.

The default implementation serializes each item yielded by the iterator using serialize_seq. Implementors should not need to override this method.

use serde::{Serialize, Serializer};

struct SecretlyOneHigher {
    data: Vec<i32>,
}

impl Serialize for SecretlyOneHigher {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        serializer.collect_seq(self.data.iter().map(|x| x + 1))
    }
}
source

fn collect_map<K, V, I>(self, iter: I) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>where K: Serialize, V: Serialize, I: IntoIterator<Item = (K, V)>,

Collect an iterator as a map.

The default implementation serializes each pair yielded by the iterator using serialize_map. Implementors should not need to override this method.

use serde::{Serialize, Serializer};
use std::collections::BTreeSet;

struct MapToUnit {
    keys: BTreeSet<i32>,
}

// Serializes as a map in which the values are all unit.
impl Serialize for MapToUnit {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        serializer.collect_map(self.keys.iter().map(|k| (k, ())))
    }
}
source

fn collect_str<T>(self, value: &T) -> Result<Self::Ok, Self::Error>where T: Display + ?Sized,

Serialize a string produced by an implementation of Display.

The default implementation builds a heap-allocated String and delegates to serialize_str. Serializers are encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation if possible.

use serde::{Serialize, Serializer};

impl Serialize for DateTime {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        serializer.collect_str(&format_args!("{:?}{:?}", self.naive_local(), self.offset()))
    }
}
source

fn is_human_readable(&self) -> bool

Determine whether Serialize implementations should serialize in human-readable form.

Some types have a human-readable form that may be somewhat expensive to construct, as well as a binary form that is compact and efficient. Generally text-based formats like JSON and YAML will prefer to use the human-readable one and binary formats like Postcard will prefer the compact one.

use serde::{Serialize, Serializer};

impl Serialize for Timestamp {
    fn serialize<S>(&self, serializer: S) -> Result<S::Ok, S::Error>
    where
        S: Serializer,
    {
        if serializer.is_human_readable() {
            // Serialize to a human-readable string "2015-05-15T17:01:00Z".
            self.to_string().serialize(serializer)
        } else {
            // Serialize to a compact binary representation.
            self.seconds_since_epoch().serialize(serializer)
        }
    }
}

The default implementation of this method returns true. Data formats may override this to false to request a compact form for types that support one. Note that modifying this method to change a format from human-readable to compact or vice versa should be regarded as a breaking change, as a value serialized in human-readable mode is not required to deserialize from the same data in compact mode.
