Expand description

A string pattern.

A Pattern<'a> expresses that the implementing type can be used as a string pattern for searching in a &'a str.

For example, both 'a' and "aa" are patterns that would match at index 1 in the string "baaaab".

The trait itself acts as a builder for an associated Searcher type, which does the actual work of finding occurrences of the pattern in a string.

Depending on the type of the pattern, the behaviour of methods like str::find and str::contains can change. The table below describes some of those behaviours.

Pattern typeMatch condition
&stris substring
charis contained in string
&[char]any char in slice is contained in string
F: FnMut(char) -> boolF returns true for a char in string
&&stris substring
&Stringis substring

Examples

// &str
assert_eq!("abaaa".find("ba"), Some(1));
assert_eq!("abaaa".find("bac"), None);

// char
assert_eq!("abaaa".find('a'), Some(0));
assert_eq!("abaaa".find('b'), Some(1));
assert_eq!("abaaa".find('c'), None);

// &[char]
assert_eq!("ab".find(&['b', 'a'][..]), Some(0));
assert_eq!("abaaa".find(&['a', 'z'][..]), Some(0));
assert_eq!("abaaa".find(&['c', 'd'][..]), None);

// FnMut(char) -> bool
assert_eq!("abcdef_z".find(|ch| ch > 'd' && ch < 'y'), Some(4));
assert_eq!("abcddd_z".find(|ch| ch > 'd' && ch < 'y'), None);
