Module rama::utils::username

Utilities to work with usernames and pull information out of it.

Username Parsing

The parse_username function is used to parse a username and extract information from its labels. The function takes a parser, which is used to parse the labels from the username.

The parser is expected to implement the UsernameLabelParser trait, which has two methods:

• parse_label: This method is called for each label in the username, and is expected to return whether the label was used or ignored.
• build: This method is called after all labels have been parsed, and is expected to consume the parser and store any relevant information.

The parser can be a single parser or a tuple of parsers. Tuple parsers all receive all labels, unless wrapped by a ExclusiveUsernameParsers, in which case the first parser that consumes a label will stop the iteration over the parsers.

Parsers are to return UsernameLabelState::Used in case they consumed the label, and UsernameLabelState::Ignored in case they did not. This way the parser-caller (e.g. parse_username) can decide whether to fail on ignored labels.

Example

ProxyFilterUsernameParser is a real-world example of a parser that uses the username labels. It support proxy filter definitions directly within the username.

use rama::proxy::{ProxyFilter, ProxyFilterUsernameParser};
use rama::utils::username::{DEFAULT_USERNAME_LABEL_SEPARATOR, parse_username};
use rama::service::context::Extensions;

let mut ext = Extensions::default();

let parser = ProxyFilterUsernameParser::default();

let username = parse_username(
    &mut ext, parser,
    "john-residential-country-us",
    DEFAULT_USERNAME_LABEL_SEPARATOR,
).unwrap();

assert_eq!(username, "john");

let filter = ext.get::<ProxyFilter>().unwrap();
assert_eq!(filter.residential, Some(true));
assert_eq!(filter.country, Some(vec!["us".into()]));
assert!(filter.datacenter.is_none());
assert!(filter.mobile.is_none());

Structs

• ExclusiveUsernameParsers
  Wrapper type that can be used with a tuple of UsernameLabelParsers in order for it to stop iterating over the parsers once there was one that consumed the label.
• UsernameLabelParserVoid
  A UsernameLabelParser which does nothing and returns UsernameLabelState::Used for all labels.
• UsernameLabels
  Opaque string labels parsed collected using the UsernameOpaqueLabelParser.
• UsernameOpaqueLabelParser
  A UsernameLabelParser which collects all labels from the username, without any specific parsing logic.

Enums

• UsernameLabelState
  The parse state of a username label.

Constants

• DEFAULT_USERNAME_LABEL_SEPARATOR
  The default username label separator used by most built-in rama support.

Traits

• UsernameLabelParser
  A parser which can parse labels from a username.

Functions

• parse_username
  Parse a username, extracting the username (first part) and passing everything else to the UsernameLabelParser.
