Defines a serializable struct that we typically use for structs that are directly read and written to disk.

Required Associated Types

type Error: Error

The types of errors that may be thrown by the serialization function(s).

Required Methods

fn to_string(&self, pretty: bool) -> Result<String, InfoError<Self::Error>>

Serializes this Config to a string.

Arguments

• pretty: If true, then it will be serialized using a pretty version of the backend (if available).

Returns

A new String that represents this config but serialized.

Errors

This function may error if the serialization failed.

fn to_writer( &self, writer: impl Write, pretty: bool, ) -> Result<(), InfoError<Self::Error>>

Serializes this Config to a reader.

Arguments

• writer: The Writer to write the serialized representation to.
• pretty: If true, then it will be serialized using a pretty version of the backend (if available).

Errors

This function may error if the serialization failed or if we failed to write to the given writer.

fn from_string(raw: impl AsRef<str>) -> Result<Self, InfoError<Self::Error>>

Deserializes the given string to an instance of ourselves.

Arguments

• raw: The raw string to deserialize.

Returns

A new instance of Self with its contents read from the given raw string.

Errors

This function may fail if the input string was invalid for this object.

fn from_reader(reader: impl Read) -> Result<Self, InfoError<Self::Error>>

Deserializes the contents of the given reader to an instance of ourselves.

Arguments

• reader: The Reader who’s contents to deserialize.

Returns

A new instance of Self with its contents read from the given reader.

Errors

This function may fail if we failed to read from the reader or if its contents were invalid for this object.

Provided Methods

fn to_path(&self, path: impl AsRef<Path>) -> Result<(), InfoError<Self::Error>>

Serializes this Config to a file at the given path.

This will always choose a pretty representation of the serialization (if applicable).

Arguments

• path: The path where to write the file to.

Errors

This function may error if the serialization failed or if we failed to create and/or write to the file.

fn from_path(path: impl AsRef<Path>) -> Result<Self, InfoError<Self::Error>>

Deserializes this Config from the file at the given path.

Arguments

• path: The path where to read the file from.

Errors

This function may fail if we failed to open/read from the file or if its contents were invalid for this object.

fn from_path_async<'async_trait>( path: impl 'async_trait + Send + AsRef<Path>, ) -> Pin<Box<dyn Future<Output = Result<Self, InfoError<Self::Error>>> + Send + 'async_trait>>

where Self: Send + 'async_trait,

Deserializes this Config from the file at the given path, with the reading part done asynchronously.

Note that the parsing path cannot be done asynchronously. Also, note that, because serde does not support asynchronous deserialization, we have to read the entire file in one go.

Arguments

• path: The path where to read the file from.

Errors

This function may fail if we failed to open/read from the file or if its contents were invalid for this object.

Object Safety

This trait is not object safe.
