|
|||
|
<p>Serde is a framework for <strong><em>ser</em></strong>ializing and <strong><em>de</em></strong>serializing Rust data
|
|||
|
structures efficiently and generically.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>The Serde ecosystem consists of data structures that know how to serialize
|
|||
|
and deserialize themselves along with data formats that know how to
|
|||
|
serialize and deserialize other things. Serde provides the layer by which
|
|||
|
these two groups interact with each other, allowing any supported data
|
|||
|
structure to be serialized and deserialized using any supported data format.</p>
|
|||
|
<p>See the Serde website <a href="https://serde.rs/">https://serde.rs/</a> for additional documentation and
|
|||
|
usage examples.</p>
|
|||
|
<h2 id="design" class="section-header"><a href="#design">Design</a></h2>
|
|||
|
<p>Where many other languages rely on runtime reflection for serializing data,
|
|||
|
Serde is instead built on Rust's powerful trait system. A data structure
|
|||
|
that knows how to serialize and deserialize itself is one that implements
|
|||
|
Serde's <code>Serialize</code> and <code>Deserialize</code> traits (or uses Serde's derive
|
|||
|
attribute to automatically generate implementations at compile time). This
|
|||
|
avoids any overhead of reflection or runtime type information. In fact in
|
|||
|
many situations the interaction between data structure and data format can
|
|||
|
be completely optimized away by the Rust compiler, leaving Serde
|
|||
|
serialization to perform the same speed as a handwritten serializer for the
|
|||
|
specific selection of data structure and data format.</p>
|
|||
|

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
|
|||
|
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
|
|||
|
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
|
|||
|
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
|
|||
|
and <code>const</code>.
|
|||
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
<p>
|
|||
|
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
|
|||
|
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
