pub struct LanguageTag { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
A language tag as described in RFC 5646.
Language tags are used to help identify languages, whether spoken, written, signed, or otherwise signaled, for the purpose of communication. This includes constructed and artificial languages but excludes languages not intended primarily for human communication, such as programming languages.
Implementations
Return the serialization of this language tag.
This is fast since that serialization is already stored in the LanguageTag
struct.
Return the serialization of this language tag.
This consumes the LanguageTag
and takes ownership of the String
stored in it.
Return the primary language subtag.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-cmn-Hans-CN").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.primary_language(), "zh");
Return the extended language subtags.
Valid language tags have at most one extended language.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-cmn-Hans-CN").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.extended_language(), Some("cmn"));
Iterate on the extended language subtags.
Valid language tags have at most one extended language.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-cmn-Hans-CN").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.extended_language_subtags().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec!["cmn"]);
Return the primary language subtag and its extended language subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-cmn-Hans-CN").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.full_language(), "zh-cmn");
Return the script subtag.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-cmn-Hans-CN").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.script(), Some("Hans"));
Return the region subtag.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-cmn-Hans-CN").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.region(), Some("CN"));
Return the variant subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-Latn-TW-pinyin").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.variant(), Some("pinyin"));
Iterate on the variant subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("zh-Latn-TW-pinyin").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.variant_subtags().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec!["pinyin"]);
Return the extension subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("de-DE-u-co-phonebk").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.extension(), Some("u-co-phonebk"));
Iterate on the extension subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("de-DE-u-co-phonebk").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.extension_subtags().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec![('u', "co-phonebk")]);
Return the private use subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("de-x-foo-bar").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.private_use(), Some("x-foo-bar"));
Iterate on the private use subtags.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("de-x-foo-bar").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.private_use_subtags().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec!["foo", "bar"]);
Create a LanguageTag
from its serialization.
This parser accepts the language tags that are “well-formed” according to
RFC 5646.
Full validation could be done with the validate
method.
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let language_tag = LanguageTag::parse("en-us").unwrap();
assert_eq!(language_tag.into_string(), "en-US")
Errors
If the language tag is not “well-formed” a ParseError
variant will be returned.
Check if the language tag is “valid” according to RFC 5646.
It applies the following steps:
- grandfathereds and private use tags are valid
- There should be no more than one extended language subtag (c.f. errata 5457).
- Primary language, extended language, script, region and variants should appear in the IANA Language Subtag Registry.
- Extended language and variants should have a correct prefix as set in the IANA Language Subtag Registry.
- There should be no duplicate variant and singleton (extension) subtags.
Errors
If the language tag is not “valid” a ValidationError
variant will be returned.
Returns the canonical version of the language tag following RFC 5646 4.5.
It currently applies the following steps:
- Grandfathered tags are replaced with the canonical version if possible.
- Redundant tags are replaced with the canonical version if possible.
- Extension languages are promoted to primary language.
- Deprecated languages, scripts, regions and variants are replaced with modern equivalents.
- Suppress-Script is applied to remove default script for a language (e.g. “en-Latn” is canonicalized as “en”).
- Variants are deduplicated
Errors
If there is not a unique way to canonicalize the language tag
a ValidationError
variant will be returned.
Matches language tags. The first language acts as a language range, the second one is used as a normal language tag. None fields in the language range are ignored. If the language tag has more extlangs than the range these extlangs are ignored. Matches are case-insensitive.
For example the range en-GB
matches only en-GB
and en-Arab-GB
but not en
.
The range en
matches all language tags starting with en
including en
, en-GB
,
en-Arab
and en-Arab-GB
.
Panics
If the language range has extensions or private use tags.
Examples
use language_tags::LanguageTag;
let range_italian = LanguageTag::parse("it").unwrap();
let tag_german = LanguageTag::parse("de").unwrap();
let tag_italian_switzerland = LanguageTag::parse("it-CH").unwrap();
assert!(!range_italian.matches(&tag_german));
assert!(range_italian.matches(&tag_italian_switzerland));
let range_spanish_brazil = LanguageTag::parse("es-BR").unwrap();
let tag_spanish = LanguageTag::parse("es").unwrap();
assert!(!range_spanish_brazil.matches(&tag_spanish));
Checks if it is a language range, meaning that there are no extension and privateuse tags.
