Crate inspect

Expand description

This module implements the inspect framework, which allows an object to expose its state for diagnostics purposes as a hierarchy. All such subtrees are linked together into a single tree for the process, and clients can query information from arbitrary portions of the tree by path.

To participate in the tree, an object implements the Inspect trait and arranges for itself to be inspected, usually automatically via an existing parent-child relationship.

For most cases, users should use the derive version of Inspect as this will automatically update the implementation as new fields are added.

Structs§

Adhoc: Returned by adhoc or adhoc_mut.
AsBinary: Wrapper around T that implements Inspect by writing a value with ValueFlags::binary.
AsBytes: Wrapper around T that implements Inspect by writing a ValueKind::Bytes value.
AsCounter: Wrapper around T that implements Inspect by writing a value with ValueFlags::count.
AsDebug: Wrapper around T that implements Inspect by formatting with the Debug trait.
AsDeferred: The return type of send.
AsDisplay: Wrapper around T that implements Inspect by calling ToString::to_string().
AsHex: Wrapper around T that implements Inspect by writing a value with ValueFlags::hex.
AtomicMut: Inspect wrapper for an atomic value (e.g., AtomicBool, allowing updates.
Deferred: A deferred inspection, which can provide inspection results asynchronously from a call to inspect.
DeferredUpdate: A deferred inspection, which can provide inspection results asynchronously from a call to inspect.
Entry: A directory entry.
ExternalRequest: Return value from Deferred::external_request, specifying parameters for a remote inspection.
Inspection: An active inspection, returned by inspect() or InspectionBuilder::inspect().
InspectionBuilder: A builder for an inspection request.
Iterated: Implementation of Inspect a type that implements Iterator with an item type (K, V).
Request: An inspection request.
Response: A type used to build an inspection response.
Update: An active update operation, returned by update() or InspectionBuilder::update().
UpdateRequest: An update request, used for updating a value.
Value: A child inspection value. This is not constructed directly but exists to provide From implementations from the allowed value types.
ValueFlags: Flags specifying additional metadata on values.

Enums§

Error: A node resolution error.
ExternalRequestType: The request type associated with ExternalRequest.
Node: A node of an inspect result.
SensitivityLevel: The sensitivity level for an inspection node or request. Requests will only return nodes at or below their sensitivity level. For example, a request set to SensitivityLevel::Safe will not return nodes with SensitivityLevel::Sensitive or SensitivityLevel::Unknown.
ValueKind: The different kinds of values that can be emitted.

Traits§

Inspect: Trait implemented by objects whose state can be inspected but not mutated.
InspectMut: Trait implemented by objects whose state can be inspected and mutated. Most users should not implement this trait directly, but instead derive InspectMut.

Functions§

adhoc: Returns an object that implements Inspect by calling f with the inspection request.
adhoc_mut: Returns an object that implements InspectMut by calling f with the inspection request.
inspect: Inspects obj for state at path.
iter_by_index: Wraps an iterator for inspection, using the index in the enumeration as the field name.
iter_by_key: Wraps an iterator for inspection.
send: An Inspect implementation that defers the inspection to another thread or context by sending the request on a [mesh] channel.
update: Updates a value in obj at path to value value.
