Struct AssetUUID

pub struct AssetUUID(/* private fields */);

A globally unique, persistent identifier for a logical asset.

This UUID represents the “idea” of an asset, completely decoupled from its physical file path. It is the primary key used by the Virtual File System (VFS) to track and retrieve asset metadata.

By using a stable UUID, assets can be moved, renamed, or have their source data modified without breaking references to them in scenes or other assets.

Implementations

impl AssetUUID

pub fn new() -> Self

Creates a new, random (version 4) AssetUUID.

pub fn new_v5(path_str: &str) -> Self

Creates a new, stable AssetUUID (version 5) from a given path.

This is the preferred method for generating UUIDs for assets on disk, as it guarantees that the UUID will be the same every time the asset pipeline is run for the same file.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for AssetUUID

fn clone(&self) -> AssetUUID

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for AssetUUID

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for AssetUUID

fn default() -> Self

Creates a new, random (version 4) AssetUUID.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for AssetUUID

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Hash for AssetUUID

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl PartialEq for AssetUUID

fn eq(&self, other: &AssetUUID) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for AssetUUID

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.
