Struct Device 

pub struct Device {
    pub node_id: String,
    pub name: String,
    pub hostname: String,
    pub addresses: Vec<String>,
    pub tags: Vec<String>,
}

One device, in the fields anything outside the device tools needs of it.

The control plane’s device object is large and mostly irrelevant here: what resolution and completion both want is the set of names a person might use for a machine, and the identifier the API will actually take in exchange.

Fields

node_id: String

What the control plane accepts, and what resolution answers with.

name: String

The MagicDNS name, fully qualified.

hostname: String

The machine’s own name for itself, which need not be unique.

addresses: Vec<String>

Every Tailscale address it answers on.

tags: Vec<String>

The tags it wears, tag: prefix included. Read from the device rather than from the policy file because a tag nothing wears and a tag in use are different questions, and completion wants both answered.

Implementations

impl Device

pub fn short_name(&self) -> &str

The label before the first dot of the MagicDNS name.

laptop.example-tailnet.ts.net is what a listing prints and laptop is what a person types, so both have to name the same device.

pub fn answers_to(&self, lowercased: &str) -> bool

Whether an already-lowercased value is one of this device’s names.

Exact against each field rather than a prefix: this decides which device a caller meant, and a value that merely begins like a name is not an answer to that. Completion matches loosely; addressing does not.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Device

fn clone(&self) -> Self

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Device

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.
