Struct similar::Change

source ·
pub struct Change<T> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Represents the expanded DiffOp change.

This type is returned from DiffOp::iter_changes and TextDiff::iter_changes.

It exists so that it’s more convenient to work with textual differences as the underlying DiffOp encodes a group of changes.

This type has additional methods that are only available for types implementing DiffableStr.

Implementations

The text interface can produce changes over DiffableStr implementing values. As those are generic interfaces for different types of strings utility methods to make working with standard rust strings more enjoyable.

Returns the value as string if it is utf-8.

Returns the value (lossy) decoded as utf-8 string.

Returns true if this change does not end in a newline and must be followed up by one if line based diffs are used.

The std::fmt::Display implementation of Change will automatically insert a newline after the value if this is true.

These methods are available for all change types.

Returns the change tag.

Returns the old index if available.

Returns the new index if available.

Returns the underlying changed value.

Depending on the type of the underlying crate::text::DiffableStr this value is more or less useful. If you always want to have a utf-8 string it’s best to use the Change::as_str and Change::to_string_lossy methods.
