<p><strong>Typed distributed plugin registration.</strong></p>
|
||
<p>This crate provides a way to set up a plugin registry into which plugins
|
||
can be registered from any source file linked into your application. There
|
||
does not need to be a central list of all the plugins.</p>
|
||
<h1 id="examples" class="section-header"><a href="#examples">Examples</a></h1>
|
||
<p>Suppose we are writing a command line flags library and want to allow any
|
||
source file in the application to register command line flags that are
|
||
relevant to it.</p>
|
||
<p>This is the flag registration style used by <a href="https://gflags.github.io/gflags/">gflags</a> and is better suited
|
||
for large scale development than maintaining a single central list of flags,
|
||
as the central list would become an endless source of merge conflicts in an
|
||
application developed simultaneously by thousands of developers.</p>
|
||
<h2 id="instantiating-the-plugin-registry" class="section-header"><a href="#instantiating-the-plugin-registry">Instantiating the plugin registry</a></h2>
|
||
<p>Let’s use a <code>struct Flag</code> as the plugin type, which will contain the short
|
||
name of the flag like <code>-v</code>, the full name like <code>--verbose</code>, and maybe other
|
||
information like argument type and help text. We instantiate a plugin
|
||
registry with an invocation of <code>inventory::collect!</code>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
|
||
<span class="kw">pub</span> <span class="kw">struct</span> <span class="ident">Flag</span> {
|
||
<span class="ident">short</span>: <span class="ident">char</span>,
|
||
<span class="ident">name</span>: <span class="kw-2">&</span><span class="lifetime">'static</span> <span class="ident">str</span>,
|
||
<span class="comment">/* ... */</span>
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
<span class="kw">impl</span> <span class="ident">Flag</span> {
|
||
<span class="kw">pub</span> <span class="kw">fn</span> <span class="ident">new</span>(<span class="ident">short</span>: <span class="ident">char</span>, <span class="ident">name</span>: <span class="kw-2">&</span><span class="lifetime">'static</span> <span class="ident">str</span>) <span class="op">-</span><span class="op">></span> <span class="self">Self</span> {
|
||
<span class="ident">Flag</span> { <span class="ident">short</span>, <span class="ident">name</span> }
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
<span class="ident">inventory</span>::<span class="macro">collect</span><span class="macro">!</span>(<span class="ident">Flag</span>);</pre></div>
|
||
<p>This <code>collect!</code> call must be in the same crate that defines the plugin type.
|
||
This macro does not “run” anything so place it outside of any function body.</p>
|
||
<h2 id="registering-plugins" class="section-header"><a href="#registering-plugins">Registering plugins</a></h2>
|
||
<p>Now any crate with access to the <code>Flag</code> type can register flags as a plugin.
|
||
Plugins can be registered by the same crate that declares the plugin type,
|
||
or by any downstream crate.</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
|
||
<span class="ident">inventory</span>::<span class="macro">submit</span><span class="macro">!</span> {
|
||
<span class="ident">Flag</span>::<span class="ident">new</span>(<span class="string">'v'</span>, <span class="string">"verbose"</span>)
|
||
}</pre></div>
|
||
<p>The <code>submit!</code> macro does not “run” anything so place it outside of any
|
||
function body. In particular, note that all <code>submit!</code> invocations across all
|
||
source files linked into your application all take effect simultaneously. A
|
||
<code>submit!</code> invocation is not a statement that needs to be called from <code>main</code>
|
||
in order to execute.</p>
|
||
<h2 id="iterating-over-plugins" class="section-header"><a href="#iterating-over-plugins">Iterating over plugins</a></h2>
|
||
<p>The value <code>inventory::iter::<T></code> is an iterator with element type <code>&'static T</code> that iterates over all plugins registered of type <code>T</code>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
|
||
<span class="kw">for</span> <span class="ident">flag</span> <span class="kw">in</span> <span class="ident">inventory</span>::<span class="ident">iter</span>::<span class="op"><</span><span class="ident">Flag</span><span class="op">></span> {

|
||
}</pre></div>
|
||
<p>There is no guarantee about the order that plugins of the same type are
|
||
visited by the iterator. They may be visited in any order.</p>
