Trait Fields 

pub trait Fields {
    const PRIMARY_KEY: Option<&'static [usize]>;

    // Required methods
    fn fields() -> Vec<(&'static str, DataType)>;
    fn into_owned_row(self) -> OwnedRow;

    // Provided method
    fn data_chunk_builder(capacity: usize) -> DataChunkBuilder { ... }
}

A struct can implements Fields when if can be represented as a relational Row.

Derivable

This trait can be automatically derived with #[derive(Fields)]. Type of the fields must implement WithDataType and ToOwnedDatum.

#[derive(Fields)]
struct Data {
    v1: i16,
    v2: i32,
}

You can add #[primary_key] attribute to one of the fields to specify the primary key of the table.

#[derive(Fields)]
struct Data {
    #[primary_key]
    v1: i16,
    v2: i32,
}

If the primary key is composite, you can add #[primary_key(...)] attribute to the struct to specify the order of the fields.

#[derive(Fields)]
#[primary_key(v2, v1)]
struct Data {
    v1: i16,
    v2: i32,
}

Required Associated Constants

const PRIMARY_KEY: Option<&'static [usize]>

The primary key of the table.

• None if the primary key is not applicable.
• Some(&[]) if the primary key is empty, i.e., there’ll be at most one row in the table.

Required Methods

fn fields() -> Vec<(&'static str, DataType)>

Return the schema of the struct.

fn into_owned_row(self) -> OwnedRow

Convert the struct to an OwnedRow.

Provided Methods

fn data_chunk_builder(capacity: usize) -> DataChunkBuilder

Create a DataChunkBuilder with the schema of the struct.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
