Struct v8::String

#[repr(C)]
pub struct String(/* private fields */);

A JavaScript string value (ECMA-262, 4.3.17).

Implementations

impl String

pub const MAX_LENGTH: usize = 536_870_888usize

The maximum length (in bytes) of a buffer that a v8::String can be built from. Attempting to create a v8::String from a larger buffer will result in None being returned.

pub fn empty<'s>(scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>) -> Local<'s, String>

pub fn new_from_utf8<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: &[u8], new_type: NewStringType, ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Allocates a new string from UTF-8 data. Only returns an empty value when length > kMaxLength

pub fn new_from_one_byte<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: &[u8], new_type: NewStringType, ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Allocates a new string from Latin-1 data. Only returns an empty value when length > kMaxLength.

pub fn new_from_two_byte<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: &[u16], new_type: NewStringType, ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Allocates a new string from UTF-16 data. Only returns an empty value when length > kMaxLength.

pub fn length(&self) -> usize

Returns the number of characters (UTF-16 code units) in this string.

pub fn utf8_length(&self, scope: &mut Isolate) -> usize

Returns the number of bytes in the UTF-8 encoded representation of this string.

pub fn write( &self, scope: &mut Isolate, buffer: &mut [u16], start: usize, options: WriteOptions, ) -> usize

Writes the contents of the string to an external buffer, as 16-bit (UTF-16) character codes.

pub fn write_one_byte( &self, scope: &mut Isolate, buffer: &mut [u8], start: usize, options: WriteOptions, ) -> usize

Writes the contents of the string to an external buffer, as one-byte (Latin-1) characters.

pub fn write_one_byte_uninit( &self, scope: &mut Isolate, buffer: &mut [MaybeUninit<u8>], start: usize, options: WriteOptions, ) -> usize

Writes the contents of the string to an external MaybeUninit buffer, as one-byte (Latin-1) characters.

pub fn write_utf8( &self, scope: &mut Isolate, buffer: &mut [u8], nchars_ref: Option<&mut usize>, options: WriteOptions, ) -> usize

Writes the contents of the string to an external buffer, as UTF-8.

pub fn write_utf8_uninit( &self, scope: &mut Isolate, buffer: &mut [MaybeUninit<u8>], nchars_ref: Option<&mut usize>, options: WriteOptions, ) -> usize

Writes the contents of the string to an external MaybeUninit buffer, as UTF-8.

pub fn new<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, value: &str, ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

pub const fn create_external_onebyte_const( buffer: &'static [u8], ) -> OneByteConst

Compile-time function to create an external string resource. The buffer is checked to contain only ASCII characters.

pub const unsafe fn create_external_onebyte_const_unchecked( buffer: &'static [u8], ) -> OneByteConst

Compile-time function to create an external string resource which skips the ASCII and length checks.

Safety

The passed in buffer must contain only ASCII data. Note that while V8 allows OneByte string resources to contain Latin-1 data, the OneByteConst struct does not allow it.

pub fn new_from_onebyte_const<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, onebyte_const: &'static OneByteConst, ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Creates a v8::String from a &'static OneByteConst which is guaranteed to be ASCII.

Note that OneByteConst guarantees ASCII even though V8 would allow OneByte string resources to contain Latin-1.

pub fn new_external_onebyte_static<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: &'static [u8], ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Creates a v8::String from a &'static [u8], must be Latin-1 or ASCII, not UTF-8!

pub fn new_external_onebyte<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: Box<[u8]>, ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Creates a v8::String from owned bytes. The bytes must be Latin-1 or ASCII. V8 will take ownership of the buffer and free it when the string is garbage collected.

pub unsafe fn new_external_onebyte_raw<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: *mut char, buffer_len: usize, destructor: extern "C" fn(_: *mut char, _: usize), ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Creates a v8::String from owned bytes, length, and a custom destructor. The bytes must be Latin-1 or ASCII. V8 will take ownership of the buffer and free it when the string is garbage collected.

SAFETY: buffer must be owned (valid for the lifetime of the string), and destructor must be a valid function pointer that can free the buffer. The destructor will be called with the buffer and length when the string is garbage collected.

pub fn new_external_twobyte_static<'s>( scope: &mut HandleScope<'s, ()>, buffer: &'static [u16], ) -> Option<Local<'s, String>>

Creates a v8::String from a &'static [u16].

pub fn get_external_string_resource( &self, ) -> Option<NonNull<ExternalStringResource>>

Get the ExternalStringResource for an external string.

Returns None if is_external() doesn’t return true.

pub fn get_external_onebyte_string_resource( &self, ) -> Option<NonNull<ExternalOneByteStringResource>>

Get the ExternalOneByteStringResource for an external one-byte string.

Returns None if is_external_onebyte() doesn’t return true.

pub fn get_external_string_resource_base( &self, ) -> (Option<NonNull<ExternalStringResourceBase>>, Encoding)

Get the ExternalStringResourceBase for an external string. Note this is just the base class, and isn’t very useful on its own. You’ll want to downcast to one of its subclasses, for instance with get_external_onebyte_string_resource.

pub fn is_external(&self) -> bool

True if string is external

pub fn is_external_onebyte(&self) -> bool

True if string is external & one-byte (e.g: created with new_external_onebyte_static)

pub fn is_external_twobyte(&self) -> bool

True if string is external & two-byte (e.g: created with new_external_twobyte_static)

pub fn is_onebyte(&self) -> bool

Will return true if and only if string is known for certain to contain only one-byte data, ie: Latin-1, a.k.a. ISO-8859-1 code points. Doesn’t read the string so can return false negatives, and a return value of false does not mean this string is not one-byte data.

For a method that will not return false negatives at the cost of potentially reading the entire string, use contains_only_onebyte().

pub fn contains_only_onebyte(&self) -> bool

True if the string contains only one-byte data. Will read the entire string in some cases.

pub fn to_rust_string_lossy(&self, scope: &mut Isolate) -> String

Creates a copy of a crate::String in a std::string::String. Convenience function not present in the original V8 API.

pub fn to_rust_cow_lossy<'a, const N: usize>( &self, scope: &mut Isolate, buffer: &'a mut [MaybeUninit<u8>; N], ) -> Cow<'a, str>

Converts a crate::String to either an owned std::string::String, or a borrowed str, depending on whether it fits into the provided buffer.

Methods from Deref<Target = Name>

pub fn get_identity_hash(&self) -> NonZeroI32

pub fn same_value_zero(&self, that: Local<'_, Value>) -> bool

This operation is used to compare values for the purpose of insertion into a Set, or determining whether Map keys are equivalent. Its semantics are almost the same as strict_equals() and same_value(), with the following important distinctions:

• It considers NaN equal to NaN (unlike strict_equals()).
• It considers -0 equal to 0 (unlike same_value()).
