Implementations

impl Contents

pub fn from_text(text: impl ToString) -> Self

Construct some markdown text from a string or string-like value

Arguments

• text - The text contents to render for this Text object. For some basic formatting examples, see the docs above for the Contents struct itself, or Slack’s markdown docs 🔗. There are no intrinsic length limits on this, those are usually requirements of the context the text will be used in.

Example

use slack_blocks::compose::text::{mrkdwn, Text};

let text = mrkdwn::Contents::from_text("This link doesn't work! :tada: https://www.cheese.com")
    .with_verbatim(true);

pub fn with_verbatim(self, verbatim: bool) -> Self

Sets the verbatim flag

Arguments

• verbatim - When set to false (as is default) URLs will be auto-converted into links, conversation names will be link-ified, and certain mentions will be automatically parsed. Using a value of true will skip any preprocessing of this nature, although you can still include manual parsing strings.

Example

use slack_blocks::compose::text::{mrkdwn, Text};

let text = mrkdwn::Contents::from_text("This link doesn't work! :tada: https://www.cheese.com")
    .with_verbatim(true);

Trait Implementations

impl AsRef<str> for Contents

fn as_ref(&self) -> &str

Converts this type into a shared reference of the (usually inferred) input type.

impl Clone for Contents

fn clone(&self) -> Contents

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Contents

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for Contents

fn default() -> Contents

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Contents

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl From<&str> for Contents

fn from(text: &str) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<Contents> for ImageOrText<'static>

fn from(src: Mrkdwn) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<Contents> for Text

fn from(src: Contents) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<String> for Contents

fn from(text: String) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl Hash for Contents

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for Contents

fn eq(&self, other: &Contents) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for Contents

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl TextKind<Contents> for mrkdwn

Available on crate feature blox only.

fn set_kind<M>(self, builder: TextBuilder<Text, M>) -> TextBuilder<Mrkdwn, M>

Invoke TextBuilder.mrkdwn or TextBuilder.plain
