About

Bwrap is a fast, lightweight, embedded system-friendly library for wrapping text. While bwrap offers great flexibility in wrapping text, neither resource consumption nor performance compromises:

1. No heap allocation happens by default.

2. The time/space complexity is O(n) by default, or O(n(p+a)) if there is appending/prepending. (n, p, a is the number of input/prepending/appending bytes respectively)

For the sake of readability, we better wrap our text.

Benchmark

Below are the performance comparisons among several text-wrapping libraries in different dimensions:

Time:

Memory:

Note:

1. The benchmark is reproduciable, details about benchmark samples or methods are elaborated in bench-wrap-libs.

2. The data above is obtained on an i5-3337u/8G machine and is for reference only. It is possible to have a slightly different result on a different machine or with different idle system resource.

Features

use_std: Use Rust standard library(libstd) for automatic memory management.

Examples

Note that the following examples require use_std feature.

Multilingual

bwrap suuport multiple languages, it categorizes languages into two categories: space-sensitive and space-insensitive. The former is for the languages that depend on ASCII SPACE to delimit words, such as English, Ukrainian, Greek and so on. The latter is for the languages that are space-insensitive, such as Chinese, Japanese, Thai and so on.

English, Ukrainian, Greek, etc.

• English

  Original:

  one two three four five six seven eight nine ten one two three four five six seven eight nine ten one two three four five six seven eight nine ten
  

  Wrapped:

  one two three four five six seven eight nine ten
  one two three four five six seven eight nine ten
  one two three four five six seven eight nine ten
  

  Source code:

  let line = "one two three four five six seven eight nine ten one two three four five six seven eight nine ten one two three four five six seven eight nine ten";
  println!("ORIGINAL:\n\n{}\n", line);
  println!("WRAPPED:\n\n{}", bwrap::wrap!(line, 50));

  println!("ORIGINAL:\n\n{}\n", line);
  println!("WRAPPED:\n\n{}", bwrap::wrap_maybrk!(line, 25));

Text Appending

bwrap can append or prepend whatever string to newly added newline character. With this feature, one can effectively achieve indentation, line trailing notation or similar.

Indentation

Original:

Here is our schedule:
- Do A, and do B, and do C, and do D, and do E, and do F
- Do G, and do H, and do I, and do J, and do K, and do L

Wrapped:

Here is our schedule:
- Do A, and do B, and do C, and do
  D, and do E, and do F
- Do G, and do H, and do I, and do
  J, and do K, and do L

Source code:

let line = "Here is our schedule:\n- Do A, and do B, and do C, and do D, and do E, and do F\n- Do G, and do H, and do I, and do J, and do K, and do L";
println!("ORIGINAL:\n\n{}\n", line);
println!("WRAPPED:\n\n{}", bwrap::wrap_nobrk!(line, 35, "  "));

Trailing notation

Original:

VGhpcyBpcyBhIHNlY3JldCBtZXNzYWdlLCBwbGVhc2UgZGVsZXRlIGFmdGVyIHJlYWQK

Wrapped:

VGhpcyBpcy |
BhIHNlY3Jl |
dCBtZXNzYW |
dlLCBwbGVh |
c2UgZGVsZX |
RlIGFmdGVy |
IHJlYWQK  

Source code:

let line = "VGhpcyBpcyBhIHNlY3JldCBtZXNzYWdlLCBwbGVhc2UgZGVsZXRlIGFmdGVyIHJlYWQK";
println!("ORIGINAL:\n\n{}\n", line);
println!("WRAPPED:\n\n{}", bwrap::wrap_maybrk!(line, 10, " |"));
