Decimal
A Decimal implementation written in pure Rust suitable for financial calculations that require significant integral and fractional digits with no round-off errors.
The binary representation consists of a 96 bit integer number, a scaling factor used to specify the decimal fraction and a 1 bit sign. Because of this representation, trailing zeros are preserved and may be exposed when in string form. These can be truncated using the normalize
or round_dp
functions.
Usage
Decimal numbers can be created in a few distinct ways. The easiest and most optimal method of creating a Decimal is to use the procedural macro within the rust_decimal_macros
crate:
// Procedural macros need importing directly
use rust_decimal_macros::*;
let number = dec!(-1.23);
Alternatively you can also use one of the Decimal number convenience functions:
use rust_decimal::prelude::*;
// Using an integer followed by the decimal points
let scaled = Decimal::new(202, 2); // 2.02
// From a string representation
let from_string = Decimal::from_str("2.02").unwrap(); // 2.02
// Using the `Into` trait
let my_int : Decimal = 3i32.into();
// Using the raw decimal representation
// 3.1415926535897932384626433832
let pi = Decimal::from_parts(1102470952, 185874565, 1703060790, false, 28);
Features
db-postgres
This feature enables a PostgreSQL communication module. It allows for reading and writing the Decimal
type by transparently serializing/deserializing into the NUMERIC
data type within PostgreSQL.
db-tokio-postgres
Enables the tokio postgres module allowing for async communication with PostgreSQL.
db-diesel-postgres
Enable diesel
PostgreSQL support.
serde-float
Enable this so that JSON serialization of Decimal types are sent as a float instead of a string (default).
e.g. with this turned on, JSON serialization would output:
{
"value": 1.234
}
serde-bincode
Since bincode
does not specify type information, we need to ensure that a type hint is provided in order to
correctly be able to deserialize. Enabling this feature on it's own will force deserialization to use deserialize_str
instead of deserialize_any
.
If, for some reason, you also have serde-float
enabled then this will use deserialize_f64
as a type hint. Because
converting to f64
loses precision, it's highly recommended that you do NOT enable this feature when working with
bincode
. That being said, this will only use 8 bytes so is slightly more efficient in regards to storage size.
