Enum Format 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum Format {
    Djot,
    Markdown,
    Xml,
    Html,
    Asciidoc,
}

Every format Twig can parse — the input axis, as opposed to Target, which is where output bytes can go.

#[non_exhaustive] for the same reason Target is: Twig’s parser list grows (reStructuredText is written and awaiting a registry entry), and a caller matching on this enum should not have to be recompiled to keep compiling. Match with a _ arm.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Djot

Markdown

Xml

Html

Asciidoc

Parsed, rendered, serialized (Target::Asciidoc) and authored into: every block gesture and the inline marks work over an AsciiDoc document, while the link, image, footnote and table gestures report Error::UnsupportedFormat — their AsciiDoc spellings have a shape the gesture algorithms cannot write (see Format::supports).

The parser covers the language as the AsciiDoc ASG schema enumerates it. The few constructs it leaves unmodelled (menu:, icon:, include::, the CSV table forms) survive as literal source text rather than failing the parse.

Implementations

impl Format

pub fn supports(self, gesture: Gesture) -> bool

Whether this format can spell gesture — the toolbar’s gray-out question, answered without a document, so a caller can build its UI before it has one. Pure and cheap: ask at startup and cache.

true means the gesture will not fail with Error::UnsupportedFormat. It is not a promise the call succeeds — the caret still decides, so a supported gesture can still report Error::NotFound, Error::NotEditable or Error::EditConflict at the position it is actually run. Gray out on false; do not read true as “this will work here”.

Returns a plain bool rather than a Result because the two ways the C query can fail — an unknown format code, a kind from the wrong vocabulary — are both unrepresentable here: Format and Gesture are enums, and a Gesture carries a kind only where one applies.

Distinct from BOTH neighbouring questions:

• Format::is_authorable is “is there a door in”, true for Format::Html on its inline marks alone.
• Warning::fidelity is “what survives a conversion to this target”, which is a different table with genuinely different answers — Djot round-trips a smart-quote container faithfully while no editor gesture may author one. Use that for a save-as warning, this for a button.

pub fn is_authorable(self) -> bool

Whether this format can be authored into at all — false for a parse-only format (Format::Xml), where every gesture refuses and an editor should offer no toolbar. The open-read-only question.

true is a weaker claim than it looks, and driving per-button state from it is the mistake this doc exists to prevent: Format::Html answers true — it spells the inline marks — while Gesture::SetBlock, the container, code-block, task and footnote gestures and Gesture::InsertLiteral are all still unsupported there. Use Format::supports per button.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Format

fn clone(&self) -> Format

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Copy for Format

impl Debug for Format

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Eq for Format

impl From<Format> for TwigFormat

fn from(value: Format) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl From<Format> for Target

Total: every input format is also an output target, even the ones with no serializer yet (converting into XML reports Error::UnsupportedFormat rather than being unnameable).

fn from(value: Format) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

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

Equality operator ==.

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

Inequality operator !=.
