# Struct syn::Path

source · [−]

    pub struct Path {
        pub leading_colon: Option<Colon2>,
        pub segments: Punctuated<PathSegment, Colon2>,
    }

Expand description

A path at which a named item is exported (e.g. `std::collections::HashMap`).

This type is available only if Syn is built with the `"derive"` or `"full"` feature.

## Fields

`leading_colon: Option<Colon2>` `segments: Punctuated<PathSegment, Colon2>`

## Implementations

source

### impl Path

source

#### pub fn parse_mod_style(input: ParseStream<'_>) -> Result<Self>

Parse a `Path` containing no path arguments on any of its segments.

This function is available only if Syn is built with the `"parsing"` feature.

##### Example

    use syn::{Path, Result, Token};
    use syn::parse::{Parse, ParseStream};

    // A simplified single `use` statement like:
    //
    //     use std::collections::HashMap;
    //
    // Note that generic parameters are not allowed in a `use` statement
    // so the following must not be accepted.
    //
    //     use a::<b>::c;
    struct SingleUse {
        use_token: Token![use],
        path: Path,
    }

    impl Parse for SingleUse {
        fn parse(input: ParseStream) -> Result<Self> {
            Ok(SingleUse {
                use_token: input.parse()?,
                path: input.call(Path::parse_mod_style)?,
            })
        }
    }

source

#### pub fn is_ident<I: ?Sized>(&self, ident: &I) -> bool where
Ident: PartialEq<I>,

Determines whether this is a path of length 1 equal to the given ident.

For them to compare equal, it must be the case that:

- the path has no leading colon,
- the number of path segments is 1,
- the first path segment has no angle bracketed or parenthesized path arguments, and
- the ident of the first path segment is equal to the given one.

This function is available only if Syn is built with the `"parsing"` feature.

##### Example

    use syn::{Attribute, Error, Meta, NestedMeta, Result};

    fn get_serde_meta_items(attr: &Attribute) -> Result<Vec<NestedMeta>> {
        if attr.path.is_ident("serde") {
            match attr.parse_meta()? {
                Meta::List(meta) => Ok(Vec::from_iter(meta.nested)),
                bad => Err(Error::new_spanned(bad, "unrecognized attribute")),
            }
        } else {
            Ok(Vec::new())
        }
    }

source

#### pub fn get_ident(&self) -> Option<&Ident>

If this path consists of a single ident, returns the ident.

A path is considered an ident if:

- the path has no leading colon,
- the number of path segments is 1, and
- the first path segment has no angle bracketed or parenthesized path arguments.

This function is available only if Syn is built with the `"parsing"` feature.
