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

CodeArg

CodeArg represents a single argument of a Code.

Datatype

All the object types used in [...] code in localization and gui files.

LookupResult 🔒

Result from looking up a name in the promotes or functions tables.

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.
