serde_dbgfmt
Deserialize the output of #[derive(Debug)]
using serde
.
This library allows you to deserialize the debug representation of rust types
via serde
. This includes all types which use #[derive(Debug)]
but also any
other ones that use the debug helpers in std::fmt
to output their debug
representation.
Example
use serde::Deserialize;
#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
struct Test {
message: String,
}
let text = format!("{:?}", Test { message: "Hello, World!".into() });
let value: Test = serde_defmt::from_str(&text)
.expect("failed to deserialize from the debug repr");
assert_eq!(value.message, "Hello, World!");
Caveats
- This library parses the format emitted by the debug helpers in
std::fmt
. This should cover all types with#[derive(Debug)]
and many custom impls but since custom impls can do anything it is not guaranteed to work. - The debug format emitted by the debug helpers is not guaranteed to be stable. While it has remained rather stable in the past there is no guarantee that it will not be changed in the future.
- The names of structs used to deserialize must match those in the text debug
representation. You can use
#[serde(rename = "..")]
if you want to use a different struct name in your codebase.
