Crate slicer

A simple, efficient utility for slicing string slices into smaller string slices. Useful for parsing anything represented by strings, such as programming languages or data formats.

Examples

Basic usage:

let path = "images/cat.jpeg";
let mut slicer = path.as_slicer();
 
let directory = slicer.slice_until("/");
slicer.skip_over("/");
let filename = slicer.slice_until(".");
slicer.skip_over(".");
let extension = slicer.slice_to_end();
 
assert_eq!(Some("images"), directory);
assert_eq!(Some("cat"), filename);
assert_eq!(Some("jpeg"), extension);
