// This does practically the same thing that TryFrom<&str> does. // Additionally, upon implementing FromStr, you can use the `parse` method // on strings to generate an object of the implementor type. // You can read more about it at https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/str/trait.FromStr.html use std::str::FromStr; #[derive(Debug)] struct Person { name: String, age: usize, } // Steps: // 1. If the length of the provided string is 0, then return an error // 2. Split the given string on the commas present in it // 3. Extract the first element from the split operation and use it as the name // 4. Extract the other element from the split operation and parse it into a `usize` as the age // If while parsing the age, something goes wrong, then return an error // Otherwise, then return a Result of a Person object impl FromStr for Person { type Err = String; fn from_str(s: &str) -> Result { } } fn main() { let p = "Mark,20".parse::().unwrap(); println!("{:?}", p); } #[cfg(test)] mod tests { use super::*; #[test] fn empty_input() { assert!("".parse::().is_err()); } #[test] fn good_input() { assert!("John,32".parse::().is_ok()); } #[test] #[should_panic] fn missing_age() { "John".parse::().unwrap(); } }
