Lib.rs

This no_std compatible library provides several useful constructs to format data in a human-readable fashion with zero allocations.

Why hand-roll annoying and verbose formatting code everywhere...

for i, item in list.iter().enumerate() {
	if i == list.len() - 1 {
		println!("{}", item);
	} else {
		print!("{} - ", item);
	}
}

...when you could just use this?

println!("{}", display_utils::join(list, " - "));

This library makes ingenious use of Rust's formatting abstractions to provide super flexible and powerful formatting utilities, without any allocations.

lib.rs:

This library aims to provide useful constructs to vastly simplify data formatting tasks.

Being a no_std library, no allocations will be made, ever. Even with this restriction however, the provided functions are flexible and ergonomic.

This code snippet:

for (i, item) in list.iter().enumerate() {
    if i == list.len() - 1 {
        println!("{}", item);
    } else {
        print!("{} - ", item);
    }
}

...simplifies to:

println!("{}", display_utils::join(list, " - "));

Other functions work in a similar fashion. Browser through the crate functions for an overview of what you can do.

Extension traits (DisplayExt, IteratorExt) which may be used to make method chains more readable.
