Struct syn::Path

pub struct Path {
    pub leading_colon: Option<Colon2>,
    pub segments: Punctuated<PathSegment, Colon2>,
}

A path at which a named item is exported (e.g. std::collections::HashMap).

This type is available only if Syn is built with the "derive" or "full" feature.

Fields

leading_colon: Option<Colon2>

segments: Punctuated<PathSegment, Colon2>

Implementations

impl Path

pub fn parse_mod_style(input: ParseStream<'_>) -> Result<Self>

Parse a Path containing no path arguments on any of its segments.

This function is available only if Syn is built with the "parsing" feature.

Example

use syn::{Path, Result, Token};
use syn::parse::{Parse, ParseStream};

// A simplified single `use` statement like:
//
//     use std::collections::HashMap;
//
// Note that generic parameters are not allowed in a `use` statement
// so the following must not be accepted.
//
//     use a::<b>::c;
struct SingleUse {
    use_token: Token![use],
    path: Path,
}

impl Parse for SingleUse {
    fn parse(input: ParseStream) -> Result<Self> {
        Ok(SingleUse {
            use_token: input.parse()?,
            path: input.call(Path::parse_mod_style)?,
        })
    }
}

pub fn is_ident<I: ?Sized>(&self, ident: &I) -> boolwhere Ident: PartialEq<I>,

Determines whether this is a path of length 1 equal to the given ident.

For them to compare equal, it must be the case that:

• the path has no leading colon,
• the number of path segments is 1,
• the first path segment has no angle bracketed or parenthesized path arguments, and
• the ident of the first path segment is equal to the given one.

This function is available only if Syn is built with the "parsing" feature.

Example

use syn::{Attribute, Error, Meta, NestedMeta, Result};

fn get_serde_meta_items(attr: &Attribute) -> Result<Vec<NestedMeta>> {
    if attr.path.is_ident("serde") {
        match attr.parse_meta()? {
            Meta::List(meta) => Ok(Vec::from_iter(meta.nested)),
            bad => Err(Error::new_spanned(bad, "unrecognized attribute")),
        }
    } else {
        Ok(Vec::new())
    }
}

pub fn get_ident(&self) -> Option<&Ident>

If this path consists of a single ident, returns the ident.

A path is considered an ident if:

• the path has no leading colon,
• the number of path segments is 1, and
• the first path segment has no angle bracketed or parenthesized path arguments.

This function is available only if Syn is built with the "parsing" feature.
