Module datatype

Validator for the [ ... ] code blocks in localization and gui files. The main entry points are the validate_datatypes function and the Datatype enum.

Structs

• CaseInsensitiveStr
• Code
  Most codes are just a name followed by another dot or by the end of the code chain. Some have comma-separated arguments between parentheses. Those arguments can be single-quoted strings or other code chains.
• CodeChain
  A CodeChain represents the full string between [ and ] in gui and localization (except for the trailing format). It consists of a series of codes separated by dots.

Enums

• Arg
  Arg is the counterpart to CodeArg. Where CodeArg represents an actual argument given in a codechain string, the Arg represents what kind of argument is expected by a promote or function.
• Args
  Args is the list of arguments expected by a given promote or function. The actual arguments from a Code can be checked against this. The special value Args::Unknown means that all arguments are accepted.
• Ck3Datatype
• CodeArg
  CodeArg represents a single argument of a Code.
• Datatype
  All the object types used in [...] code in localization and gui files.
• ImperatorDatatype
• LookupResult 🔒
  Result from looking up a name in the promotes or functions tables.
• Vic3Datatype

Functions

• datatype_and_scope_map 🔒
• datatype_from_scopes 🔒
  Return the datatype that best matches scopes, or Datatype::Unknown if there is no match. Nearly every scope type has a matching datatype, but there are far more datatypes than scope types. Note that only Scopes values that are narrowed down to a single scope type can be matched.
• lookup_alternative 🔒
  Find an alternative datafunction to suggest when lookup_name has not been found. This is a fairly expensive lookup. Currently it only looks for different-case variants.
• lookup_function 🔒
• lookup_global_function 🔒
• lookup_global_promote 🔒
• lookup_promote 🔒
• lookup_promote_or_function 🔒
• scope_from_datatype 🔒
  Return the scope type that best matches dtype, or None if there is no match. Nearly every scope type has a matching datatype, but there are far more datatypes than scope types.
• validate_argument 🔒
  Internal function for validating an argument to a datatype code. If the argument is iself a code chain, this will end up calling validate_datatypes recursively.
• validate_custom 🔒
  Internal function for validating a reference to a custom localization.
• validate_datatypes
  Validate a datafunction chain, which is the stuff between [ ] in localization.
