pub struct Formatter<'a> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
Configuration for formatting.
A Formatter
represents various options related to formatting. Users do not
construct Formatter
s directly; a mutable reference to one is passed to
the fmt
method of all formatting traits, like Debug
and Display
.
To interact with a Formatter
, you’ll call various methods to change the
various options related to formatting. For examples, please see the
documentation of the methods defined on Formatter
below.
Implementations
sourceimpl<'a> Formatter<'a>
impl<'a> Formatter<'a>
sourcepub fn pad_integral(
&mut self,
is_nonnegative: bool,
prefix: &str,
buf: &str
) -> Result<(), Error>
pub fn pad_integral(
&mut self,
is_nonnegative: bool,
prefix: &str,
buf: &str
) -> Result<(), Error>
Performs the correct padding for an integer which has already been emitted into a str. The str should not contain the sign for the integer, that will be added by this method.
Arguments
- is_nonnegative - whether the original integer was either positive or zero.
- prefix - if the ‘#’ character (Alternate) is provided, this is the prefix to put in front of the number.
- buf - the byte array that the number has been formatted into
This function will correctly account for the flags provided as well as the minimum width. It will not take precision into account.
Examples
use std::fmt;
struct Foo { nb: i32 }
impl Foo {
fn new(nb: i32) -> Foo {
Foo {
nb,
}
}
}
impl fmt::Display for Foo {
fn fmt(&self, formatter: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result {
// We need to remove "-" from the number output.
let tmp = self.nb.abs().to_string();
formatter.pad_integral(self.nb >= 0, "Foo ", &tmp)
}
}
assert_eq!(&format!("{}", Foo::new(2)), "2");
assert_eq!(&format!("{}", Foo::new(-1)), "-1");
assert_eq!(&format!("{}", Foo::new(0)), "0");
assert_eq!(&format!("{:#}", Foo::new(-1)), "-Foo 1");
assert_eq!(&format!("{:0>#8}", Foo::new(-1)), "00-Foo 1");
sourcepub fn pad(&mut self, s: &str) -> Result<(), Error>
pub fn pad(&mut self, s: &str) -> Result<(), Error>
This function takes a string slice and emits it to the internal buffer after applying the relevant formatting flags specified. The flags recognized for generic strings are:
- width - the minimum width of what to emit
- fill/align - what to emit and where to emit it if the string provided needs to be padded
- precision - the maximum length to emit, the string is truncated if it is longer than this length
Notably this function ignores the flag
parameters.
Examples
use std::fmt;
struct Foo;
impl fmt::Display for Foo {
fn fmt(&self, formatter: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result {
formatter.pad("Foo")
}
}
assert_eq!(&format!("{Foo:<4}"), "Foo ");
assert_eq!(&format!("{Foo:0>4}"), "0Foo");
sourcepub fn write_str(&mut self, data: &str) -> Result<(), Error>
pub fn write_str(&mut self, data: &str) -> Result<(), Error>
Writes some data to the underlying buffer contained within this formatter.
Examples
use std::fmt;
struct Foo;
impl fmt::Display for Foo {
fn fmt(&self, formatter: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result {
formatter.write_str("Foo")
// This is equivalent to:
// write!(formatter, "Foo")
}
}
assert_eq!(&format!("{Foo}"), "Foo");
assert_eq!(&format!("{Foo:0>8}"), "Foo");
sourcepub fn write_fmt(&mut self, fmt: Arguments<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>
pub fn write_fmt(&mut self, fmt: Arguments<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>
Writes some formatted information into this instance.
Examples
use std::fmt;
struct Foo(i32);
impl fmt::Display for Foo {
fn fmt(&self, formatter: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result {
formatter.write_fmt(format_args!("Foo {}", self.0))
}
}
assert_eq!(&format!("{}", Foo(-1)), "Foo -1");
assert_eq!(&format!("{:0>8}", Foo(2)), "Foo 2");

type Ok = ()
type Ok = ()
The output type produced by this Serializer
during successful
serialization. Most serializers that produce text or binary output
should set Ok = ()
