}Expand description
Writeable is an alternative to std::fmt::Display with the addition of a length function.
Provided Methods§
sourcefn write_to<W: Write + ?Sized>(&self, sink: &mut W) -> Result
fn write_to<W: Write + ?Sized>(&self, sink: &mut W) -> Result
Writes a string to the given sink. Errors from the sink are bubbled up.
The default implementation delegates to write_to_parts, and discards any
Part annotations.
sourcefn write_to_parts<S: PartsWrite + ?Sized>(&self, sink: &mut S) -> Result
fn write_to_parts<S: PartsWrite + ?Sized>(&self, sink: &mut S) -> Result
Write bytes and Part annotations to the given sink. Errors from the
sink are bubbled up. The default implementation delegates to write_to,
and doesn’t produce any Part annotations.
sourcefn writeable_length_hint(&self) -> LengthHint
fn writeable_length_hint(&self) -> LengthHint
Returns a hint for the number of UTF-8 bytes that will be written to the sink.
Override this method if it can be computed quickly.
sourcefn write_to_string(&self) -> Cow<'_, str>
fn write_to_string(&self) -> Cow<'_, str>
Creates a new String with the data from this Writeable. Like ToString,
but smaller and faster.
The default impl allocates an owned String. However, if it is possible to return a
borrowed string, overwrite this method to return a Cow::Borrowed.
To remove the Cow wrapper, call .into_owned() or .as_str() as appropriate.
§Examples
Inspect a Writeable before writing it to the sink:
use core::fmt::{Result, Write};
use writeable::Writeable;
fn write_if_ascii<W, S>(w: &W, sink: &mut S) -> Result
where
W: Writeable + ?Sized,
S: Write + ?Sized,
{
let s = w.write_to_string();
if s.is_ascii() {
sink.write_str(&s)
} else {
Ok(())
}
}Convert the Writeable into a fully owned String:
use writeable::Writeable;
fn make_string(w: &impl Writeable) -> String {
w.write_to_string().into_owned()
}sourcefn writeable_cmp_bytes(&self, other: &[u8]) -> Ordering
fn writeable_cmp_bytes(&self, other: &[u8]) -> Ordering
Compares the contents of this Writeable to the given bytes
without allocating a String to hold the Writeable contents.
This returns a lexicographical comparison, the same as if the Writeable
were first converted to a String and then compared with Ord. For a
locale-sensitive string ordering, use an ICU4X Collator.
§Examples
use core::cmp::Ordering;
use core::fmt;
use writeable::Writeable;
struct WelcomeMessage<'s> {
pub name: &'s str,
}
impl<'s> Writeable for WelcomeMessage<'s> {
// see impl in Writeable docs
}
let message = WelcomeMessage { name: "Alice" };
let message_str = message.write_to_string();
assert_eq!(Ordering::Equal, message.writeable_cmp_bytes(b"Hello, Alice!"));
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater, message.writeable_cmp_bytes(b"Alice!"));
assert_eq!(Ordering::Greater, (*message_str).cmp("Alice!"));
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less, message.writeable_cmp_bytes(b"Hello, Bob!"));
assert_eq!(Ordering::Less, (*message_str).cmp("Hello, Bob!"));Object Safety§
