Struct shlex::bytes::Quoter

pub struct Quoter { /* private fields */ }

A more configurable interface to quote strings. If you only want the default settings you can use the convenience functions try_quote and try_join.

The string equivalent is shlex::Quoter.

Implementations

impl Quoter

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new Quoter with default settings.

pub fn allow_nul(self, allow: bool) -> Self

Set whether to allow nul bytes. By default they are not allowed and will result in an error of QuoteError::Nul.

pub fn join<'a, I: IntoIterator<Item = &'a [u8]>>( &self, words: I ) -> Result<Vec<u8>, QuoteError>

Convenience function that consumes an iterable of words and turns it into a single byte string, quoting words when necessary. Consecutive words will be separated by a single space.

pub fn quote<'a>(&self, in_bytes: &'a [u8]) -> Result<Cow<'a, [u8]>, QuoteError>

Given a single word, return a byte string suitable to encode it as a shell argument.

If given valid UTF-8, this will never produce invalid UTF-8. This is because it only ever inserts valid ASCII characters before or after existing ASCII characters (or returns two single quotes if the input was an empty string). It will never modify a multibyte UTF-8 character.
