icu_locid crates.io

icu_locid is one of the ICU4X components.

This API provides necessary functionality for parsing, manipulating, and serializing Unicode Language and Locale Identifiers.

The crate provides algorithms for parsing a string into a well-formed language or locale identifier as defined by UTS #35: Unicode LDML 3. Unicode Language and Locale Identifiers.

Locale is the most common structure to use for storing information about a language, script, region, variants and extensions. In almost all cases, this struct should be used as the base unit for all locale management operations.

LanguageIdentifier is a strict subset of Locale which can be useful in a narrow range of cases where Unicode Extensions are not relevant.

If in doubt, use Locale.

Examples

```rust use iculocid::Locale; use iculocid::subtags::{Language, Region};

let mut loc: Locale = "en-US".parse() .expect("Parsing failed.");

let lang: Language = "en".parse() .expect("Parsing failed."); let region: Region = "US".parse() .expect("Parsing failed.");

asserteq!(loc.language, lang); asserteq!(loc.script, None); asserteq!(loc.region, Some(region)); asserteq!(loc.variants.len(), 0);

let region: Region = "GB".parse().expect("Parsing failed."); loc.region = Some(region);

asserteq!(loc.tostring(), "en-GB"); ```
