# icu_pattern [![crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/icu_pattern)](https://crates.io/crates/icu_pattern)
`icu_pattern` is a utility crate of the [`ICU4X`] project.
It includes a [`Pattern`] type which supports patterns with various storage backends.
The types are tightly coupled with the [`writeable`] crate.
## Examples
Parsing and interpolating with a single-placeholder pattern:
```rust
use icu_pattern::SinglePlaceholderPattern;
use writeable::assert_writeable_eq;
// Parse a pattern string:
let pattern = "Hello, {0}!"
.parse::<SinglePlaceholderPattern<_>>()
.unwrap();
// Interpolate into the pattern string:
assert_writeable_eq!(pattern.interpolate(["World"]), "Hello, World!");
// Introspect the serialized form of the pattern string:
assert_eq!(pattern.take_store(), "\x08Hello, !");
```
