Module units

Types for parsing/deserializing unit values.

let time = Time::from_str("10 min").unwrap();
assert_eq!(time, Time::new(10, TimePrefix::Min));

assert_eq!(
    time.convert(TimePrefix::Sec).unwrap(),
    Time::from_str("600 sec").unwrap()
);

Structs

BitsPerSec

A throughput in bits-per-second.

Bytes

A number of bytes.

Time

An amount of time. Should only use the time prefix types (TimePrefix and TimePrefixUpper) with this type.

Enums

SiPrefix

Common SI prefixes (including base-2 prefixes since they’re similar).

SiPrefixUpper

Common SI prefixes larger than the base unit (including base-2 prefixes since they’re similar).

TimePrefix

Time units, which we pretend are prefixes for implementation simplicity. These contain both the prefix (“n”, “u”, “m”) and the suffix (“sec”, “min”, “hr”) and should be used with the Time unit.

TimePrefixUpper

Time units larger than the base unit, which we pretend are prefixes for implementation simplicity. These really contain the unit suffix (“sec”, “min”, “hr”) and should be used with the Time unit.

Traits

Prefix

The prefix of a unit value denoting magnitude. Common prefixes are SI prefixes (nano, micro, milli, etc).

Unit

A unit containing a value (ex: an integer), a prefix (ex: an enum), and allowed constant suffix strings.
