Runtime managed resource borrowing.

This library provides a map that can store one of any type, as well as mutable borrows to each type at the same time.

Note: This implementation is extracted from shred, with the following differences:

• Debug implementation prints out the type name instead of type ID for the key.
• Uses downcast-rs instead of mopa for downcasting types.
• Adds Debug and PartialEq implementations for borrow types when the resource type implements those traits.
• Returns Err instead of panicking for try_borrow* functions when the resource is already borrowed.

Add the following to Cargo.toml

resman = "0.19.0"

# or
resman = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["debug"] }
resman = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["fn_res"] }
resman = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["fn_res", "fn_res_mut"] }
resman = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["fn_res", "fn_meta"] }
resman = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["fn_res", "fn_res_mut", "fn_meta"] }

# requires nightly
resman = { version = "0.19.0", features = ["fn_res", "fn_res_mut", "fn_res_once"] }

In code:

use resman::Resources;

#[derive(Debug)]
struct A(u32);
#[derive(Debug)]
struct B(u32);

let mut resources = Resources::default();

resources.insert(A(1));
resources.insert(B(2));

// We can validly have two mutable borrows from the `Resources` map!
let mut a = resources.borrow_mut::<A>();
let mut b = resources.borrow_mut::<B>();
a.0 = 2;
b.0 = 3;

// We need to explicitly drop the A and B borrows, because they are runtime
// managed borrows, and rustc doesn't know to drop them before the immutable
// borrows after this.
drop(a);
drop(b);

// Multiple immutable borrows to the same resource are valid.
let a_0 = resources.borrow::<A>();
let _a_1 = resources.borrow::<A>();
let b = resources.borrow::<B>();

println!("A: {}", a_0.0);
println!("B: {}", b.0);

// Trying to mutably borrow a resource that is already borrowed (immutably
// or mutably) returns `Err`.
let a_try_borrow_mut = resources.try_borrow_mut::<A>();
let exists = if a_try_borrow_mut.is_ok() {
    "Ok(..)"
} else {
    "Err"
};
println!("a_try_borrow_mut: {}", exists); // prints "Err"

The Debug implementation for Resources will use the Debug implementation for the values when printed. This requires that all Resources to also implement Debug.

Example:

use resman::Resources;

let mut resources = Resources::default();
resources.insert(1u32);
println!("{:?}", resources);

// Without `"debug"` feature:
// {u32: ".."}

// With `"debug"` feature:
// {u32: 1}

Enables the FnRes trait, allowing dynamic functions invocation under a generic function type.

Usage of this API is as follows:

1. Define regular functions or closures to run.

   • The functions should take &T or &mut T as parameters.
   • The return type of all functions should be the same.

   Currently there is a limit of 7 parameters.

2. Call my_function.into_fn_res() to obtain a Box<dyn FnRes>.

3. Call fn_res.call(&resources) to automatically borrow T from resources and invoke the function.

Example:

use resman::{FnRes, IntoFnRes, Resources};

/// Borrows `u32` mutably, and `u64` immutably.
fn f1(a: &mut u32, b: &u64) -> u64 {
    *a += 1;
    *a as u64 + *b
}

/// Borrows `u32` immutably, and `u64` mutably.
fn f2(a: &u32, b: &mut u64) -> u64 {
    *b += 1;
    *a as u64 + *b
}

let functions = [
    f1.into_fn_res(),
    f2.into_fn_res(),
    (|a: &u32, b: &u64| *a as u64 + *b).into_fn_res(),
];

let mut resources = Resources::default();
resources.insert(0u32);
resources.insert(0u64);

let sum = functions
    .iter()
    .fold(0, |sum, fn_res| sum + fn_res.call(&resources));

assert_eq!(5, sum); // 1 + 2 + 2

let debug_str = format!("{:?}", resources);
assert!(debug_str.contains("u32: 1"));
assert!(debug_str.contains("u64: 1"));

Since Resources has internal mutability, care must be taken to not run multiple functions that borrow the same value mutably from Resources at the same time when using FnRes::call, otherwise it will panic.

Use FnRes::try_call for a non-panicking version, which will return a BorrowFail error if there is an overlapping borrow conflict at runtime.

Like "fn_res", enables the IntoFnResMut and FnResMut traits.

FnResMut is implemented for functions and closures that impl FnMut, but not Fn.

Requires nightly

Like "fn_res_mut", enables the IntoFnResOnce and FnResOnce traits.

FnResOnce is implemented for functions and closures that impl FnOnce, but not FnMut.

Adds FnMeta as an implied trait to FnRes. This means function metadata can be queried for any FnRes.

Raises the number of arguments that FnRes, IntoFnRes, and IntoFnResource are implemented for from 6 to 8.

This is feature gated because compilation time increasing significantly with higher numbers of arguments -- as much as from 4 seconds for 6 arguments to 26 seconds for 8 arguments when only "fn_res" is enabled, and up to a minute when "fn_mut" and "fn_once" are enabled.

• anymap: Map of any type, without multiple mutable borrows.
• rt_map: Runtime managed mutable borrowing from a map.
• shred: Contains Resources type, plus a task dispatcher.
