# IntlMemoizer
`intl-memoizer` is a crate designed to handle lazy-initialized references
to intl formatters.
The assumption is that allocating a new formatter instance is costly, and such
instance is read-only during its life time, with constructor being expensive, and
`format`/`select` calls being cheap.
In result it pays off to use a singleton to manage memoization of all instances of intl
APIs such as `PluralRules`, DateTimeFormat` etc. between all `FluentBundle` instances.
Usage
-----
The following is a high-level example of how this works, for running examples see
the [docs](https://docs.rs/intl-memoizer/)
```rust
/// Internationalization formatter should implement the Memoizable trait.
impl Memoizable for NumberFormat {
...
}
// The main memoizer has weak references to all of the per-language memoizers.
let mut memoizer = IntlMemoizer::default();
// The formatter memoziation happens per-locale.
let lang = "en-US".parse().expect("Failed to parse.");
let lang_memoizer: Rc<IntlLangMemoizer> = memoizer.get_for_lang(en_us);
// Run the formatter
let options: NumberFormatOptions {
minimum_fraction_digits: 3,
maximum_fraction_digits: 5,
};
// Format pi with the options. This will lazily construct the NumberFormat.
let pi = lang_memoizer
.with_try_get::<NumberFormat, _, _>((options,), |nf| nf.format(3.141592653))
.unwrap()
// The example formatter constructs a string with diagnostic information about
// the configuration.
assert_eq!(text, "3.14159");
// Running it again will use the previous formatter.
let two = lang_memoizer
.with_try_get::<NumberFormat, _, _>((options,), |nf| nf.format(2.0))
.unwrap()
assert_eq!(text, "2.000");
```
