pub fn take<C, Input, Error>(count: C) -> impl Fn(Input)
Available on crate feature
mtls
only.Expand description
Returns an input slice containing the first N input elements (Input[..N]).
§Streaming Specific
Streaming version if the input has less than N elements, take
will
return a Err::Incomplete(Needed::new(M))
where M is the number of
additional bytes the parser would need to succeed.
It is well defined for &[u8]
as the number of elements is the byte size,
but for types like &str
, we cannot know how many bytes correspond for
the next few chars, so the result will be Err::Incomplete(Needed::Unknown)
§Example
use nom::bytes::streaming::take;
fn take6(s: &str) -> IResult<&str, &str> {
take(6usize)(s)
}
assert_eq!(take6("1234567"), Ok(("7", "123456")));
assert_eq!(take6("things"), Ok(("", "things")));
assert_eq!(take6("short"), Err(Err::Incomplete(Needed::Unknown)));
