Adding `nested` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add nested

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

nested = "0.1.1"

The nested library will be automatically available globally. Read the nested library documentation.

Back to the crate overview.

Readme

nested

A memory efficient container for nested collections.

This crate is intended to be used when:

you want a potentially large:
- Vec<String>
- Vec<Vec<T>>
- Vec<C> where C is heap allocated, dynamically sized and can implement Collection trait
you actually only need to use borrowed items (&[T] or &str)

Instead of having n + 1 allocations, you'll only have 2.

Example

use nested::Nested;

let mut v = Nested::<String>::new();

// you can either populate it one by one
v.push("a");
v.push("bb".to_string());
v.push("hhh");
v.extend(vec!["iiiiii".to_string(), "jjjj".to_string()]);
assert_eq!(v.len(), 5);
assert_eq!(&v[0], "a");
assert_eq!(&v[1], "bb");

// or you can directly collect it
let mut v = ["a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g"].iter().collect::<Nested<String>>();
assert_eq!(v.len(), 7);

// it also provides basic operations
let u = v.split_off(2);
assert_eq!(u.get(0), Some("c"));

v.truncate(1);
assert_eq!(v.pop(), Some("a".to_string()));
assert_eq!(v.pop(), None);

Benches
