rune_alloc::string

Struct String

Source
pub struct String<A: Allocator = Global> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A UTF-8–encoded, growable string.

The String type is the most common string type that has ownership over the contents of the string. It has a close relationship with its borrowed counterpart, the primitive str.

§Examples

You can create a String from a literal string with String::try_from:

use rune::alloc::String;

let hello = String::try_from("Hello, world!")?;

You can append a char to a String with the try_push method, and append a &str with the try_push_str method:

use rune::alloc::String;

let mut hello = String::try_from("Hello, ")?;

hello.try_push('w')?;
hello.try_push_str("orld!")?;

If you have a vector of UTF-8 bytes, you can create a String from it with the from_utf8 method:

use rune::alloc::{try_vec, String};

// some bytes, in a vector
let sparkle_heart = try_vec![240, 159, 146, 150];
let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart)?;

assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);

§UTF-8

Strings are always valid UTF-8. If you need a non-UTF-8 string, consider OsString. It is similar, but without the UTF-8 constraint. Because UTF-8 is a variable width encoding, Strings are typically smaller than an array of the same chars:

use core::mem;

// `s` is ASCII which represents each `char` as one byte
let s = "hello";
assert_eq!(s.len(), 5);

// A `char` array with the same contents would be longer because
// every `char` is four bytes
let s = ['h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o'];
let size: usize = s.into_iter().map(|c| mem::size_of_val(&c)).sum();
assert_eq!(size, 20);

// However, for non-ASCII strings, the difference will be smaller
// and sometimes they are the same
let s = "💖💖💖💖💖";
assert_eq!(s.len(), 20);

let s = ['💖', '💖', '💖', '💖', '💖'];
let size: usize = s.into_iter().map(|c| mem::size_of_val(&c)).sum();
assert_eq!(size, 20);

This raises interesting questions as to how s[i] should work. What should i be here? Several options include byte indices and char indices but, because of UTF-8 encoding, only byte indices would provide constant time indexing. Getting the ith char, for example, is available using chars:

let s = "hello";
let third_character = s.chars().nth(2);
assert_eq!(third_character, Some('l'));

let s = "💖💖💖💖💖";
let third_character = s.chars().nth(2);
assert_eq!(third_character, Some('💖'));

Next, what should s[i] return? Because indexing returns a reference to underlying data it could be &u8, &[u8], or something else similar. Since we’re only providing one index, &u8 makes the most sense but that might not be what the user expects and can be explicitly achieved with as_bytes():

// The first byte is 104 - the byte value of `'h'`
let s = "hello";
assert_eq!(s.as_bytes()[0], 104);
// or
assert_eq!(s.as_bytes()[0], b'h');

// The first byte is 240 which isn't obviously useful
let s = "💖💖💖💖💖";
assert_eq!(s.as_bytes()[0], 240);

Due to these ambiguities/restrictions, indexing with a usize is simply forbidden:

let s = "hello";

// The following will not compile!
println!("The first letter of s is {}", s[0]);

It is more clear, however, how &s[i..j] should work (that is, indexing with a range). It should accept byte indices (to be constant-time) and return a &str which is UTF-8 encoded. This is also called “string slicing”. Note this will panic if the byte indices provided are not character boundaries - see is_char_boundary for more details. See the implementations for SliceIndex<str> for more details on string slicing. For a non-panicking version of string slicing, see get.

The bytes and chars methods return iterators over the bytes and codepoints of the string, respectively. To iterate over codepoints along with byte indices, use char_indices.

§Deref

String implements Deref<Target = str>, and so inherits all of str’s methods. In addition, this means that you can pass a String to a function which takes a &str by using an ampersand (&):

use rune::alloc::String;

fn takes_str(s: &str) { }

let s = String::try_from("Hello")?;

takes_str(&s);

This will create a &str from the String and pass it in. This conversion is very inexpensive, and so generally, functions will accept &strs as arguments unless they need a String for some specific reason.

In certain cases Rust doesn’t have enough information to make this conversion, known as Deref coercion. In the following example a string slice &'a str implements the trait TraitExample, and the function example_func takes anything that implements the trait. In this case Rust would need to make two implicit conversions, which Rust doesn’t have the means to do. For that reason, the following example will not compile.

use rune::alloc::String;

trait TraitExample {}

impl<'a> TraitExample for &'a str {}

fn example_func<A: TraitExample>(example_arg: A) {}

let example_string = String::try_from("example_string")?;
example_func(&example_string);

There are two options that would work instead. The first would be to change the line example_func(&example_string); to example_func(example_string.as_str());, using the method as_str() to explicitly extract the string slice containing the string. The second way changes example_func(&example_string); to example_func(&*example_string);. In this case we are dereferencing a String to a str, then referencing the str back to &str. The second way is more idiomatic, however both work to do the conversion explicitly rather than relying on the implicit conversion.

§Representation

A String is made up of three components: a pointer to some bytes, a length, and a capacity. The pointer points to an internal buffer String uses to store its data. The length is the number of bytes currently stored in the buffer, and the capacity is the size of the buffer in bytes. As such, the length will always be less than or equal to the capacity.

This buffer is always stored on the heap.

You can look at these with the as_ptr, len, and capacity methods:

use core::mem;
use rune::alloc::String;

let story = String::try_from("Once upon a time...")?;

// Prevent automatically dropping the String's data
let mut story = mem::ManuallyDrop::new(story);

let ptr = story.as_mut_ptr();
let len = story.len();
let capacity = story.capacity();
let allocator = story.allocator().clone();

// story has nineteen bytes
assert_eq!(19, len);

// We can re-build a String out of ptr, len, and capacity. This is all
// unsafe because we are responsible for making sure the components are
// valid:
let s = unsafe { String::from_raw_parts_in(ptr, len, capacity, allocator) } ;

assert_eq!("Once upon a time...", s);

If a String has enough capacity, adding elements to it will not re-allocate. For example, consider this program:

use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::new();

println!("{}", s.capacity());

for _ in 0..5 {
    s.try_push_str("hello")?;
    println!("{}", s.capacity());
}

This will output the following:

0
8
16
16
32
32

At first, we have no memory allocated at all, but as we append to the string, it increases its capacity appropriately. If we instead use the try_with_capacity_in method to allocate the correct capacity initially:

use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let mut s = String::try_with_capacity_in(25, Global)?;

println!("{}", s.capacity());

for _ in 0..5 {
    s.try_push_str("hello")?;
    println!("{}", s.capacity());
}

We end up with a different output:

25
25
25
25
25
25

Here, there’s no need to allocate more memory inside the loop.

Implementations§

Source§

impl String

Source

pub const fn new() -> Self

Creates a new empty String.

Given that the String is empty, this will not allocate any initial buffer. While that means that this initial operation is very inexpensive, it may cause excessive allocation later when you add data. If you have an idea of how much data the String will hold, consider the try_with_capacity method to prevent excessive re-allocation.

§Examples

Basic usage:

use rune::alloc::String;

let s = String::new();
Source

pub fn try_with_capacity(capacity: usize) -> Result<Self, Error>

Creates a new empty String with at least the specified capacity.

Strings have an internal buffer to hold their data. The capacity is the length of that buffer, and can be queried with the capacity method. This method creates an empty String, but one with an initial buffer that can hold at least capacity bytes. This is useful when you may be appending a bunch of data to the String, reducing the number of reallocations it needs to do.

If the given capacity is 0, no allocation will occur, and this method is identical to the new method.

§Examples

Basic usage:

use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_with_capacity(10)?;

// The String contains no chars, even though it has capacity for more
assert_eq!(s.len(), 0);

// These are all done without reallocating...
let cap = s.capacity();

for _ in 0..10 {
    s.try_push('a')?;
}

assert_eq!(s.capacity(), cap);

// ...but this may make the string reallocate
s.try_push('a')?;
Source

pub fn into_std(self) -> String

Convert a String into a std String.

The result is allocated on the heap, using the default global allocator so this is a zero-copy operation.

The memory previously occupied by this vector will be released.

Source§

impl<A: Allocator> String<A>

Source

pub fn new_in(alloc: A) -> String<A>

Creates a new empty String.

Given that the String is empty, this will not allocate any initial buffer. While that means that this initial operation is very inexpensive, it may cause excessive allocation later when you add data. If you have an idea of how much data the String will hold, consider the try_with_capacity_in method to prevent excessive re-allocation.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let s = String::new_in(Global);
Source

pub fn allocator(&self) -> &A

Returns a reference to the underlying allocator.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let s = String::new_in(Global);
let alloc: &Global = s.allocator();
Source

pub fn try_with_capacity_in( capacity: usize, alloc: A, ) -> Result<String<A>, Error>

Creates a new empty String with at least the specified capacity.

Strings have an internal buffer to hold their data. The capacity is the length of that buffer, and can be queried with the capacity method. This method creates an empty String, but one with an initial buffer that can hold at least capacity bytes. This is useful when you may be appending a bunch of data to the String, reducing the number of reallocations it needs to do.

If the given capacity is 0, no allocation will occur, and this method is identical to the new_in method.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let mut s = String::try_with_capacity_in(10, Global)?;

// The String contains no chars, even though it has capacity for more
assert_eq!(s.len(), 0);

// These are all done without reallocating...
let cap = s.capacity();

for _ in 0..10 {
    s.try_push('a')?;
}

assert_eq!(s.capacity(), cap);

// ...but this may make the string reallocate
s.try_push('a')?;
Source

pub fn from_utf8(vec: Vec<u8, A>) -> Result<String<A>, FromUtf8Error<A>>

Converts a vector of bytes to a String.

A string (String) is made of bytes (u8), and a vector of bytes (Vec<u8>) is made of bytes, so this function converts between the two. Not all byte slices are valid Strings, however: String requires that it is valid UTF-8. from_utf8() checks to ensure that the bytes are valid UTF-8, and then does the conversion.

If you are sure that the byte slice is valid UTF-8, and you don’t want to incur the overhead of the validity check, there is an unsafe version of this function, from_utf8_unchecked, which has the same behavior but skips the check.

This method will take care to not copy the vector, for efficiency’s sake.

If you need a &str instead of a String, consider str::from_utf8.

The inverse of this method is into_bytes.

§Errors

Returns Err if the slice is not UTF-8 with a description as to why the provided bytes are not UTF-8. The vector you moved in is also included.

§Examples

Basic usage:

use rune::alloc::{try_vec, String};

// some bytes, in a vector
let sparkle_heart = try_vec![240, 159, 146, 150];
let sparkle_heart = String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart)?;

assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);

Incorrect bytes:

use rune::alloc::{try_vec, String};

// some invalid bytes, in a vector
let sparkle_heart = try_vec![0, 159, 146, 150];

assert!(String::from_utf8(sparkle_heart).is_err());

See the docs for FromUtf8Error for more details on what you can do with this error.

Source

pub unsafe fn from_raw_parts_in( buf: *mut u8, length: usize, capacity: usize, alloc: A, ) -> String<A>

Creates a new String from a length, capacity, and pointer.

§Safety

This is highly unsafe, due to the number of invariants that aren’t checked:

  • The memory at buf needs to have been previously allocated by the same allocator the standard library uses, with a required alignment of exactly 1.
  • length needs to be less than or equal to capacity.
  • capacity needs to be the correct value.
  • The first length bytes at buf need to be valid UTF-8.

Violating these may cause problems like corrupting the allocator’s internal data structures. For example, it is normally not safe to build a String from a pointer to a C char array containing UTF-8 unless you are certain that array was originally allocated by the Rust standard library’s allocator.

The ownership of buf is effectively transferred to the String which may then deallocate, reallocate or change the contents of memory pointed to by the pointer at will. Ensure that nothing else uses the pointer after calling this function.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use core::mem;

unsafe {
    let s = String::try_from("hello")?;

    // Prevent automatically dropping the String's data
    let mut s = mem::ManuallyDrop::new(s);

    let ptr = s.as_mut_ptr();
    let len = s.len();
    let capacity = s.capacity();
    let allocator = s.allocator().clone();

    let s = String::from_raw_parts_in(ptr, len, capacity, allocator);

    assert_eq!("hello", s);
}
Source

pub unsafe fn from_utf8_unchecked(bytes: Vec<u8, A>) -> String<A>

Converts a vector of bytes to a String without checking that the string contains valid UTF-8.

See the safe version, from_utf8, for more details.

§Safety

This function is unsafe because it does not check that the bytes passed to it are valid UTF-8. If this constraint is violated, it may cause memory unsafety issues with future users of the String, as the rest of the standard library assumes that Strings are valid UTF-8.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::{try_vec, String};

// some bytes, in a vector
let sparkle_heart = try_vec![240, 159, 146, 150];

let sparkle_heart = unsafe {
    String::from_utf8_unchecked(sparkle_heart)
};

assert_eq!("💖", sparkle_heart);
Source

pub fn into_bytes(self) -> Vec<u8, A>

Converts a String into a byte vector.

This consumes the String, so we do not need to copy its contents.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let s = String::try_from("hello")?;
let bytes = s.into_bytes();

assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111][..], &bytes[..]);
Source

pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str

Extracts a string slice containing the entire String.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let s = String::try_from("foo")?;

assert_eq!("foo", s.as_str());
Source

pub fn as_mut_str(&mut self) -> &mut str

Converts a String into a mutable string slice.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("foobar")?;
let s_mut_str = s.as_mut_str();

s_mut_str.make_ascii_uppercase();

assert_eq!("FOOBAR", s_mut_str);
Source

pub fn try_push_str(&mut self, string: &str) -> Result<(), Error>

Appends a given string slice onto the end of this String.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let mut s = String::try_with_capacity_in(3, Global)?;

s.try_push_str("foo")?;
s.try_push_str("bar")?;

assert_eq!("foobar", s);
Source

pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize

Returns this String’s capacity, in bytes.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let s = String::try_with_capacity_in(10, Global)?;

assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);
Source

pub fn try_reserve(&mut self, additional: usize) -> Result<(), Error>

Tries to reserve capacity for at least additional bytes more than the current length. The allocator may reserve more space to speculatively avoid frequent allocations. After calling try_reserve, capacity will be greater than or equal to self.len() + additional if it returns Ok(()). Does nothing if capacity is already sufficient. This method preserves the contents even if an error occurs.

§Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::{String, Error};

fn process_data(data: &str) -> Result<String, Error> {
    let mut output = String::new();

    // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
    output.try_reserve(data.len())?;

    // Now we know this can't OOM in the middle of our complex work
    output.try_push_str(data)?;

    Ok(output)
}
Source

pub fn try_reserve_exact(&mut self, additional: usize) -> Result<(), Error>

Tries to reserve the minimum capacity for at least additional bytes more than the current length. Unlike try_reserve, this will not deliberately over-allocate to speculatively avoid frequent allocations. After calling try_reserve_exact, capacity will be greater than or equal to self.len() + additional if it returns Ok(()). Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it requests. Therefore, capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely minimal. Prefer try_reserve if future insertions are expected.

§Errors

If the capacity overflows, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::{String, Error};

fn process_data(data: &str) -> Result<String, Error> {
    let mut output = String::new();

    // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
    output.try_reserve_exact(data.len())?;

    // Now we know this can't OOM in the middle of our complex work
    output.try_push_str(data);

    Ok(output)
}
Source

pub fn try_shrink_to_fit(&mut self) -> Result<(), Error>

Shrinks the capacity of this String to match its length.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
let mut s = String::try_from("foo")?;

s.try_reserve(100)?;
assert!(s.capacity() >= 100);

s.try_shrink_to_fit()?;
assert_eq!(3, s.capacity());
Source

pub fn try_shrink_to(&mut self, min_capacity: usize) -> Result<(), Error>

Shrinks the capacity of this String with a lower bound.

The capacity will remain at least as large as both the length and the supplied value.

If the current capacity is less than the lower limit, this is a no-op.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("foo")?;

s.try_reserve(100)?;
assert!(s.capacity() >= 100);

s.try_shrink_to(10)?;
assert!(s.capacity() >= 10);
s.try_shrink_to(0)?;
assert!(s.capacity() >= 3);
Source

pub fn try_push(&mut self, ch: char) -> Result<(), Error>

Appends the given char to the end of this String.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let mut s = String::try_with_capacity_in(3, Global)?;
s.try_push_str("abc")?;

s.try_push('1')?;
s.try_push('2')?;
s.try_push('3')?;

assert_eq!("abc123", s);
Source

pub fn as_bytes(&self) -> &[u8]

Returns a byte slice of this String’s contents.

The inverse of this method is from_utf8.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let s = String::try_from("hello")?;

assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111], s.as_bytes());
Source

pub fn truncate(&mut self, new_len: usize)

Shortens this String to the specified length.

If new_len is greater than the string’s current length, this has no effect.

Note that this method has no effect on the allocated capacity of the string

§Panics

Panics if new_len does not lie on a char boundary.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("hello")?;

s.truncate(2);

assert_eq!("he", s);
Source

pub fn pop(&mut self) -> Option<char>

Removes the last character from the string buffer and returns it.

Returns None if this String is empty.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("abč")?;

assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('č'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('b'));
assert_eq!(s.pop(), Some('a'));

assert_eq!(s.pop(), None);
Source

pub fn remove(&mut self, idx: usize) -> char

Removes a char from this String at a byte position and returns it.

This is an O(n) operation, as it requires copying every element in the buffer.

§Panics

Panics if idx is larger than or equal to the String’s length, or if it does not lie on a char boundary.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("abç")?;

assert_eq!(s.remove(0), 'a');
assert_eq!(s.remove(1), 'ç');
assert_eq!(s.remove(0), 'b');
Source

pub fn retain<F>(&mut self, f: F)
where F: FnMut(char) -> bool,

Retains only the characters specified by the predicate.

In other words, remove all characters c such that f(c) returns false. This method operates in place, visiting each character exactly once in the original order, and preserves the order of the retained characters.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("f_o_ob_ar")?;

s.retain(|c| c != '_');

assert_eq!(s, "foobar");

Because the elements are visited exactly once in the original order, external state may be used to decide which elements to keep.

use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("abcde")?;
let keep = [false, true, true, false, true];
let mut iter = keep.iter();
s.retain(|_| *iter.next().unwrap());
assert_eq!(s, "bce");
Source

pub fn try_insert(&mut self, idx: usize, ch: char) -> Result<(), Error>

Inserts a character into this String at a byte position.

This is an O(n) operation as it requires copying every element in the buffer.

§Panics

Panics if idx is larger than the String’s length, or if it does not lie on a char boundary.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::alloc::Global;

let mut s = String::try_with_capacity_in(3, Global)?;

s.try_insert(0, 'f')?;
s.try_insert(1, 'o')?;
s.try_insert(2, 'o')?;

assert_eq!(s, "foo");
Source

pub fn try_insert_str(&mut self, idx: usize, string: &str) -> Result<(), Error>

Inserts a string slice into this String at a byte position.

This is an O(n) operation as it requires copying every element in the buffer.

§Panics

Panics if idx is larger than the String’s length, or if it does not lie on a char boundary.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("bar")?;

s.try_insert_str(0, "foo")?;

assert_eq!("foobar", s);
Source

pub unsafe fn as_mut_vec(&mut self) -> &mut Vec<u8, A>

Returns a mutable reference to the contents of this String.

§Safety

This function is unsafe because the returned &mut Vec allows writing bytes which are not valid UTF-8. If this constraint is violated, using the original String after dropping the &mut Vec may violate memory safety, as the rest of the standard library assumes that Strings are valid UTF-8.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("hello")?;

unsafe {
    let vec = s.as_mut_vec();
    assert_eq!(&[104, 101, 108, 108, 111][..], &vec[..]);

    vec.reverse();
}
assert_eq!(s, "olleh");
Source

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Returns the length of this String, in bytes, not chars or graphemes. In other words, it might not be what a human considers the length of the string.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let a = String::try_from("foo")?;
assert_eq!(a.len(), 3);

let fancy_f = String::try_from("ƒoo")?;
assert_eq!(fancy_f.len(), 4);
assert_eq!(fancy_f.chars().count(), 3);
Source

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Returns true if this String has a length of zero, and false otherwise.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut v = String::new();
assert!(v.is_empty());

v.try_push('a')?;
assert!(!v.is_empty());
Source

pub fn try_split_off(&mut self, at: usize) -> Result<String<A>, Error>
where A: Clone,

Splits the string into two at the given byte index.

Returns a newly allocated String. self contains bytes [0, at), and the returned String contains bytes [at, len). at must be on the boundary of a UTF-8 code point.

Note that the capacity of self does not change.

§Panics

Panics if at is not on a UTF-8 code point boundary, or if it is beyond the last code point of the string.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut hello = String::try_from("Hello, World!")?;
let world = hello.try_split_off(7)?;
assert_eq!(hello, "Hello, ");
assert_eq!(world, "World!");
Source

pub fn clear(&mut self)

Truncates this String, removing all contents.

While this means the String will have a length of zero, it does not touch its capacity.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("foo")?;

s.clear();

assert!(s.is_empty());
assert_eq!(0, s.len());
assert_eq!(3, s.capacity());
Source

pub fn drain<R>(&mut self, range: R) -> Drain<'_, A>
where R: RangeBounds<usize>,

Removes the specified range from the string in bulk, returning all removed characters as an iterator.

The returned iterator keeps a mutable borrow on the string to optimize its implementation.

§Panics

Panics if the starting point or end point do not lie on a char boundary, or if they’re out of bounds.

§Leaking

If the returned iterator goes out of scope without being dropped (due to core::mem::forget, for example), the string may still contain a copy of any drained characters, or may have lost characters arbitrarily, including characters outside the range.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;
use rune::alloc::prelude::*;

let mut s = String::try_from("α is alpha, β is beta")?;
let beta_offset = s.find('β').unwrap_or(s.len());

// Remove the range up until the β from the string
let t: String = s.drain(..beta_offset).try_collect()?;
assert_eq!(t, "α is alpha, ");
assert_eq!(s, "β is beta");

// A full range clears the string, like `clear()` does
s.drain(..);
assert_eq!(s, "");
Source

pub fn try_replace_range<R>( &mut self, range: R, replace_with: &str, ) -> Result<(), Error>
where R: RangeBounds<usize>,

Removes the specified range in the string, and replaces it with the given string. The given string doesn’t need to be the same length as the range.

§Panics

Panics if the starting point or end point do not lie on a char boundary, or if they’re out of bounds.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let mut s = String::try_from("α is alpha, β is beta")?;
let beta_offset = s.find('β').unwrap_or(s.len());

// Replace the range up until the β from the string
s.try_replace_range(..beta_offset, "Α is capital alpha; ")?;
assert_eq!(s, "Α is capital alpha; β is beta");

pub fn try_into_boxed_str(self) -> Result<Box<str, A>, Error>

Converts this String into a Box<str>.

This will drop any excess capacity.

let s = String::try_from("hello")?;

let b = s.try_into_boxed_str()?;
Source

pub fn leak<'a>(self) -> &'a mut str
where A: 'a,

Consumes and leaks the String, returning a mutable reference to the contents, &'a mut str.

The caller has free choice over the returned lifetime, including 'static. Indeed, this function is ideally used for data that lives for the remainder of the program’s life, as dropping the returned reference will cause a memory leak.

It does not reallocate or shrink the String, so the leaked allocation may include unused capacity that is not part of the returned slice. If you don’t want that, call try_into_boxed_str, and then Box::leak.

§Examples
use rune::alloc::String;

let x = String::try_from("bucket")?;
let static_ref: &'static mut str = x.leak();
assert_eq!(static_ref, "bucket");

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Returns the length of self.

This length is in bytes, not chars or graphemes. In other words, it might not be what a human considers the length of the string.

pub fn is_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> bool

Checks that index-th byte is the first byte in a UTF-8 code point sequence or the end of the string.

The start and end of the string (when index == self.len()) are considered to be boundaries.

Returns false if index is greater than self.len().

§Examples
let s = "Löwe 老虎 Léopard";
assert!(s.is_char_boundary(0));
// start of `老`
assert!(s.is_char_boundary(6));
assert!(s.is_char_boundary(s.len()));

pub fn floor_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> usize

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (round_char_boundary)

Finds the closest x not exceeding index where is_char_boundary(x) is true.

This method can help you truncate a string so that it’s still valid UTF-8, but doesn’t exceed a given number of bytes. Note that this is done purely at the character level and can still visually split graphemes, even though the underlying characters aren’t split. For example, the emoji 🧑‍🔬 (scientist) could be split so that the string only includes 🧑 (person) instead.

§Examples
#![feature(round_char_boundary)]
let s = "❤️🧡💛💚💙💜";
assert_eq!(s.len(), 26);
assert!(!s.is_char_boundary(13));

let closest = s.floor_char_boundary(13);
assert_eq!(closest, 10);
assert_eq!(&s[..closest], "❤️🧡");
Source

pub fn ceil_char_boundary(&self, index: usize) -> usize

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (round_char_boundary)

Finds the closest x not below index where is_char_boundary(x) is true.

If index is greater than the length of the string, this returns the length of the string.

This method is the natural complement to floor_char_boundary. See that method for more details.

§Examples
#![feature(round_char_boundary)]
let s = "❤️🧡💛💚💙💜";
assert_eq!(s.len(), 26);
assert!(!s.is_char_boundary(13));

1.20.0 · Source

pub unsafe fn as_bytes_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [u8]

Converts a mutable string slice to a mutable byte slice.

§Safety

The caller must ensure that the content of the slice is valid UTF-8 before the borrow ends and the underlying str is used.

Use of a str whose contents are not valid UTF-8 is undefined behavior.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let mut s = String::from("Hello");
let bytes = unsafe { s.as_bytes_mut() };

assert_eq!(b"Hello", bytes);

Mutability:

let mut s = String::from("🗻∈🌏");

unsafe {
    let bytes = s.as_bytes_mut();

    bytes[0] = 0xF0;
    bytes[1] = 0x9F;

pub fn as_ptr(&self) -> *const u8

Converts a string slice to a raw pointer.

As string slices are a slice of bytes, the raw pointer points to a u8. This pointer will be pointing to the first byte of the string slice.

§Examples
let s = "Hello";
let ptr = s.as_ptr();

pub fn split_at(&self, mid: usize) -> (&str, &str)

Divides one string slice into two at an index.

The argument, mid, should be a byte offset from the start of the string. It must also be on the boundary of a UTF-8 code point.

pub fn chars(&self) -> Chars<'_>

Returns an iterator over the chars of a string slice.

As a string slice consists of valid UTF-8, we can iterate through a string slice by char. This method returns such an iterator.

It’s important to remember that char represents a Unicode Scalar Value, and might not match your idea of what a ‘character’ is. Iteration over grapheme clusters may be what you actually want. This functionality is not provided by Rust’s standard library, check crates.io instead.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let word = "goodbye";

let count = word.chars().count();
assert_eq!(7, count);

let mut chars = word.chars();

assert_eq!(Some('g'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('o'), chars.next());

assert_eq!(Some('b'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('y'), chars.next());
assert_eq!(Some('e'), chars.next());

assert_eq!(None, chars.next());

Remember, chars might not match your intuition about characters:

let y = "y̆";

pub fn char_indices(&self) -> CharIndices<'_>

Returns an iterator over the chars of a string slice, and their positions.

As a string slice consists of valid UTF-8, we can iterate through a string slice by char. This method returns an iterator of both these chars, as well as their byte positions.

The iterator yields tuples. The position is first, the char is second.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let word = "goodbye";

let count = word.char_indices().count();
assert_eq!(7, count);

let mut char_indices = word.char_indices();

assert_eq!(Some((0, 'g')), char_indices.next());

pub fn split_whitespace(&self) -> SplitWhitespace<'_>

Splits a string slice by whitespace.

The iterator returned will return string slices that are sub-slices of the original string slice, separated by any amount of whitespace.

‘Whitespace’ is defined according to the terms of the Unicode Derived Core Property White_Space. If you only want to split on ASCII whitespace instead, use split_ascii_whitespace.

pub fn lines(&self) -> Lines<'_>

Returns an iterator over the lines of a string, as string slices.

Lines are split at line endings that are either newlines (\n) or sequences of a carriage return followed by a line feed (\r\n).

Line terminators are not included in the lines returned by the iterator.

Note that any carriage return (\r) not immediately followed by a line feed (\n) does not split a line. These carriage returns are thereby included in the produced lines.

The final line ending is optional. A string that ends with a final line ending will return the same lines as an otherwise identical string without a final line ending.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let text = "foo\r\nbar\n\nbaz\r";
let mut lines = text.lines();

Returns an iterator over substrings of this string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern.

The pattern can be a &str, char, a slice of chars, or a function or closure that determines if a character matches.

§Iterator behavior

The returned iterator will be a DoubleEndedIterator if the pattern allows a reverse search and forward/reverse search yields the same elements. This is true for, e.g., char, but not for &str.

If the pattern allows a reverse search but its results might differ from a forward search, the rsplit method can be used.

assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "tiger", "leopard"]);

let v: Vec<&str> = "abc1def2ghi".split(char::is_numeric).collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);

let v: Vec<&str> = "lionXtigerXleopard".split(char::is_uppercase).collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["lion", "tiger", "leopard"]);

If the pattern is a slice of chars, split on each occurrence of any of the characters:

let v: Vec<&str> = "2020-11-03 23:59".split(&['-', ' ', ':', '@'][..]).collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["2020", "11", "03", "23", "59"]);

A more complex pattern, using a closure:

let v: Vec<&str> = "abc1defXghi".split(|c| c == '1' || c == 'X').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["abc", "def", "ghi"]);

If a string contains multiple contiguous separators, you will end up with empty strings in the output:

let x = "||||a||b|c".to_string();
let d: Vec<_> = x.split('|').collect();

assert_eq!(d, &["", "", "", "", "a", "", "b", "c"]);

Contiguous separators are separated by the empty string.

let x = "(///)".to_string();
let d: Vec<_> = x.split('/').collect();

assert_eq!(d, &["(", "", "", ")"]);

Separators at the start or end of a string are neighbored by empty strings.

let d: Vec<_> = "010".split("0").collect();
assert_eq!(d, &["", "1", ""]);

When the empty string is used as a separator, it separates every character in the string, along with the beginning and end of the string.

let f: Vec<_> = "rust".split("").collect();
assert_eq!(f, &["", "r", "u", "s", "t", ""]);

Contiguous separators can lead to possibly surprising behavior when whitespace is used as the separator. This code is correct:

let x = "    a  b c".to_string();
let d: Vec<_> = x.split(' ').collect();

assert_eq!(d, &["", "", "", "", "a", "", "b", "c"]);

It does not give you:

assert_eq!(d, &["a", "b", "c"]);

Use split_whitespace for this behavior.

pub fn split_inclusive<P>(&self, pat: P) -> SplitInclusive<'_, P>
where P: Pattern,

Returns an iterator over substrings of this string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern.

Differs from the iterator produced by split in that split_inclusive leaves the matched part as the terminator of the substring.

The pattern can be a &str, char, a slice of chars, or a function or closure that determines if a character matches.

§Examples
let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lamb\nlittle lamb\nlittle lamb."
    .split_inclusive('\n').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["Mary had a little lamb\n", "little lamb\n", "little lamb."]);

If the last element of the string is matched, that element will be considered the terminator of the preceding substring. That substring will be the last item returned by the iterator.

let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lamb\nlittle lamb\nlittle lamb.\n"
    .split_inclusive('\n').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["Mary had a little lamb\n", "little lamb\n", "little lamb.\n"]);

pub fn rsplit<P>(&self, pat: P) -> RSplit<'_, P>
where P: Pattern, <P as Pattern>::Searcher<'a>: for<'a> ReverseSearcher<'a>,

Returns an iterator over substrings of the given string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern and yielded in reverse order.

The pattern can be a &str, char, a slice of chars, or a function or closure that determines if a character matches.

§Iterator behavior

The returned iterator requires that the pattern supports a reverse search, and it will be a DoubleEndedIterator if a forward/reverse search yields the same elements.

For iterating from the front, the split method can be used.

§Examples

Simple patterns:

let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lamb".rsplit(' ').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["lamb", "little", "a", "had", "Mary"]);

let v: Vec<&str> = "".rsplit('X').collect();

pub fn split_terminator<P>(&self, pat: P) -> SplitTerminator<'_, P>
where P: Pattern,

Returns an iterator over substrings of the given string slice, separated by characters matched by a pattern.

The pattern can be a &str, char, a slice of chars, or a function or closure that determines if a character matches.

Equivalent to split, except that the trailing substring is skipped if empty.

This method can be used for string data that is terminated, rather than separated by a pattern.

§Iterator behavior

The returned iterator will be a DoubleEndedIterator if the pattern allows a reverse search and forward/reverse search yields the same elements. This is true for, e.g., char, but not for &str.

If the pattern allows a reverse search but its results might differ from a forward search, the rsplit_terminator method can be used.

§Examples
let v: Vec<&str> = "A.B.".split_terminator('.').collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["A", "B"]);

let v: Vec<&str> = "A..B..".split_terminator(".").collect();
assert_eq!(v, ["A", "", "B", ""]);

pub fn rsplit_terminator<P>(&self, pat: P) -> RSplitTerminator<'_, P>
where P: Pattern, <P as Pattern>::Searcher<'a>: for<'a> ReverseSearcher<'a>,

Returns an iterator over substrings of self, separated by characters matched by a pattern and yielded in reverse order.

The pattern can be a &str, char, a slice of chars, or a function or closure that determines if a character matches.

Equivalent to split, except that the trailing substring is skipped if empty.

This method can be used for string data that is terminated, rather than separated by a pattern.

§Iterator behavior

The returned iterator requires that the pattern supports a reverse search, and it will be double ended if a forward/reverse search yields the same elements.

For iterating from the front, the split_terminator method can be used.

§Examples

pub fn splitn<P>(&self, n: usize, pat: P) -> SplitN<'_, P>
where P: Pattern,

Returns an iterator over substrings of the given string slice, separated by a pattern, restricted to returning at most n items.

If n substrings are returned, the last substring (the nth substring) will contain the remainder of the string.

The pattern can be a &str, char, a slice of chars, or a function or closure that determines if a character matches.

§Iterator behavior

The returned iterator will not be double ended, because it is not efficient to support.

If the pattern allows a reverse search, the rsplitn method can be used.

§Examples

Simple patterns:

let v: Vec<&str> = "Mary had a little lambda".splitn(3, ' ').collect();

pub fn parse<F>(&self) -> Result<F, <F as FromStr>::Err>
where F: FromStr,

Parses this string slice into another type.

Because parse is so general, it can cause problems with type inference. As such, parse is one of the few times you’ll see the syntax affectionately known as the ‘turbofish’: ::<>. This helps the inference algorithm understand specifically which type you’re trying to parse into.

parse can parse into any type that implements the FromStr trait.

pub fn escape_debug(&self) -> EscapeDebug<'_>

Returns an iterator that escapes each char in self with char::escape_debug.

Note: only extended grapheme codepoints that begin the string will be escaped.

§Examples

As an iterator:

for c in "❤\n!".escape_debug() {
    print!("{c}");
}
println!();

Using println! directly:

println!("{}", "❤\n!".escape_debug());

Both are equivalent to:

println!("❤\\n!");

Using to_string:

assert_eq!("❤\n!".escape_debug().to_string(), "❤\\n!");

pub fn substr_range(&self, substr: &str) -> Option<Range<usize>>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (substr_range)

Returns the range that a substring points to.

Returns None if substr does not point within self.

Unlike str::find, this does not search through the string. Instead, it uses pointer arithmetic to find where in the string substr is derived from.

This is useful for extending str::split and similar methods.

Note that this method may return false positives (typically either Some(0..0) or Some(self.len()..self.len())) if substr is a zero-length str that points at the beginning or end of another, independent, str.

§Examples
#![feature(substr_range)]

let data = "a, b, b, a";
let mut iter = data.split(", ").map(|s| data.substr_range(s).unwrap());

assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(0..1));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(3..4));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(6..7));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(9..10));
Source

pub fn as_str(&self) -> &str

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (str_as_str)

Returns the same string as a string slice &str.

This method is redundant when used directly on &str, but it helps dereferencing other string-like types to string slices, for example references to Box<str> or Arc<str>.

pub fn replace<P>(&self, from: P, to: &str) -> String
where P: Pattern,

Replaces all matches of a pattern with another string.

replace creates a new String, and copies the data from this string slice into it. While doing so, it attempts to find matches of a pattern. If it finds any, it replaces them with the replacement string slice.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let s = "this is old";

assert_eq!("this is new", s.replace("old", "new"));
assert_eq!("than an old", s.replace("is", "an"));

When the pattern doesn’t match, it returns this string slice as String:

let s = "this is old";
assert_eq!(s, s.replace("cookie monster", "little lamb"));
1.16.0 · Source

pub fn replacen<P>(&self, pat: P, to: &str, count: usize) -> String
where P: Pattern,

Replaces first N matches of a pattern with another string.

replacen creates a new String, and copies the data from this string slice into it. While doing so, it attempts to find matches of a pattern. If it finds any, it replaces them with the replacement string slice at most count times.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let s = "foo foo 123 foo";
assert_eq!("new new 123 foo", s.replacen("foo", "new", 2));
assert_eq!("faa fao 123 foo", s.replacen('o', "a", 3));
assert_eq!("foo foo new23 foo", s.replacen(char::is_numeric, "new", 1));

When the pattern doesn’t match, it returns this string slice as String:

let s = "this is old";
assert_eq!(s, s.replacen("cookie monster", "little lamb", 10));

pub fn to_lowercase(&self) -> String

Returns the lowercase equivalent of this string slice, as a new String.

‘Lowercase’ is defined according to the terms of the Unicode Derived Core Property Lowercase.

Since some characters can expand into multiple characters when changing the case, this function returns a String instead of modifying the parameter in-place.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let s = "HELLO";

assert_eq!("hello", s.to_lowercase());

A tricky example, with sigma:

let sigma = "Σ";

assert_eq!("σ", sigma.to_lowercase());

// but at the end of a word, it's ς, not σ:
let odysseus = "ὈΔΥΣΣΕΎΣ";

assert_eq!("ὀδυσσεύς", odysseus.to_lowercase());

Languages without case are not changed:

let new_year = "农历新年";

assert_eq!(new_year, new_year.to_lowercase());
1.2.0 · Source

pub fn to_uppercase(&self) -> String

Returns the uppercase equivalent of this string slice, as a new String.

‘Uppercase’ is defined according to the terms of the Unicode Derived Core Property Uppercase.

Since some characters can expand into multiple characters when changing the case, this function returns a String instead of modifying the parameter in-place.

§Examples

Basic usage:

let s = "hello";

assert_eq!("HELLO", s.to_uppercase());

Scripts without case are not changed:

let new_year = "农历新年";

assert_eq!(new_year, new_year.to_uppercase());

One character can become multiple:

let s = "tschüß";

assert_eq!("TSCHÜSS", s.to_uppercase());

pub fn repeat(&self, n: usize) -> String

Creates a new String by repeating a string n times.

§Panics

This function will panic if the capacity would overflow.

§Examples

Basic usage:

assert_eq!("abc".repeat(4), String::from("abcabcabcabc"));

A panic upon overflow:

// this will panic at runtime
let huge = "0123456789abcdef".repeat(usize::MAX);

To uppercase the value in-place, use make_ascii_uppercase.

To uppercase ASCII characters in addition to non-ASCII characters, use to_uppercase.

§Examples
let s = "Grüße, Jürgen ❤";
