Struct json_strip_comments::StripComments

pub struct StripComments<T: Read> { /* private fields */ }

A Read that transforms another Read so that it changes all comments to spaces so that a downstream json parser (such as json-serde) doesn’t choke on them.

The supported comments are:

• C style block comments (/* ... */)
• C style line comments (// ...)
• Shell style line comments (# ...)

Example

use json_strip_comments::StripComments;
use std::io::Read;

let input = r#"{
// c line comment
"a": "comment in string /* a */",
# shell line comment
} /** end */"#;

let mut stripped = String::new();
StripComments::new(input.as_bytes()).read_to_string(&mut stripped).unwrap();

assert_eq!(stripped, "{
                 \n\"a\": \"comment in string /* a */\",
                    \n}           ");

Implementations

impl<T> StripComments<T>

where T: Read,

pub fn new(input: T) -> Self

pub fn with_settings(settings: CommentSettings, input: T) -> Self

Create a new StripComments with settings which may be different from the default.

This is useful if you wish to disable allowing certain kinds of comments.

Trait Implementations

impl<T> Read for StripComments<T>

where T: Read,

fn read(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>

Pull some bytes from this source into the specified buffer, returning how many bytes were read.

fn read_vectored(&mut self, bufs: &mut [IoSliceMut<'_>]) -> Result<usize, Error>

Like read, except that it reads into a slice of buffers.

fn is_read_vectored(&self) -> bool

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

Determines if this Reader has an efficient read_vectored implementation.

fn read_to_end(&mut self, buf: &mut Vec<u8>) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, placing them into buf.

fn read_to_string(&mut self, buf: &mut String) -> Result<usize, Error>

Read all bytes until EOF in this source, appending them to buf.

fn read_exact(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<(), Error>

Read the exact number of bytes required to fill buf.

fn read_buf(&mut self, buf: BorrowedCursor<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

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

Pull some bytes from this source into the specified buffer.

fn read_buf_exact(&mut self, cursor: BorrowedCursor<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

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

Read the exact number of bytes required to fill cursor.

fn by_ref(&mut self) -> &mut Self

where Self: Sized,

Creates a “by reference” adaptor for this instance of Read.

fn bytes(self) -> Bytes<Self>

where Self: Sized,

Transforms this Read instance to an Iterator over its bytes.

fn chain<R>(self, next: R) -> Chain<Self, R>

where R: Read, Self: Sized,

Creates an adapter which will chain this stream with another.

fn take(self, limit: u64) -> Take<Self>

where Self: Sized,

Creates an adapter which will read at most limit bytes from it.
