struct Parser [src]

A stream based parser for format strings. Allows to implement formatters compatible with std.fmt without replicating the standard library behavior.

Fields

iter: std.unicode.Utf8Iterator

Members

char (Function)
maybe (Function)
number (Function)
peek (Function)
specifier (Function)
until (Function)
