Rust bindings
Generating FIDL Rust crates
A FIDL Rust crate can be generated from a FIDL library in two ways:
- Manually, using the standard FIDL toolchain.
- Automatically, using the Fuchsia build system (which under the hood uses the standard FIDL toolchain). This option is only available within the Fuchsia source tree.
Libraries {#libraries}
A FIDL library maps to a Rust library crate named fidl_, followed by the
full library path with underscores instead of dots.
For example, given the library declaration:
The corresponding FIDL crate is named fidl_fuchsia_examples:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="import" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Traits {#traits}
Some methods and constants in FIDL Rust crates are provided by implementing traits from the FIDL runtime crate. To access them, you must import the corresponding traits. The easiest way to do this is to import them all at once from the prelude module:
The prelude re-exports traits using the as _ syntax, so the glob import only
brings traits into scope for resolving methods and constants. It does not import
the trait names themselves.
Constants {#constants}
Given the [constants][lang-constants]:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="consts" %}
The FIDL toolchain generates the following constants:
pub const BOARD_SIZE: u8pub const NAME: &str
The correspondence between FIDL primitive types and Rust types is outlined in built-in types.
Fields
This section describes how the FIDL toolchain converts FIDL types to native types in Rust. These types can appear as members in an aggregate type or as parameters to a protocol method.
Built-in types {#builtins}
Note: In Rust, the equivalent type for a optional FIDL type T:optional is an
Option of the Rust type for T. These are not explicitly listed in the table
below.
In following table, when both an "owned" and "borrowed" variant are specified,
the "owned" type refers to the type that would appear in an aggregate type (e.g.
as the type of a struct field or vector element), and the "borrowed" type refers
to the type that would appear if it were used as a protocol method parameter
(from the client's perspective) or response tuple value (from the server's
perspective). The distinction between owned and borrowed exists in order to take
advantage of Rust’s ownership model. When making a request with a parameter of
type T, the proxied function call does not need to take
ownership of T so the FIDL toolchain needs to generate a borrowed version of
T. Borrowed versions often use &mut since the type T may contain handles,
in which case the FIDL bindings zero out the handles when encoding, which
modifies the input. Using &mut instead of taking ownership allows callers to
reuse the input value if it does not contain handles.

User defined types {#user-defined-types}
Bits, enums, and tables are always referred to using their generated type T.
structs and unions can be either required or optional, and used in an owned
context or borrowed context, which means that there are four possible equivalent
Rust types. For a given struct T or union T, the types are as follows:
| owned | borrowed | |
|---|---|---|
| required | T |
&mut T |
| optional | Option<T> |
Option<&mut T> |
Request, response, and event parameters {#request-response-event-parameters}
When FIDL needs to generate a single Rust type representing the parameters to a request, response, or event, such as for result types, it uses the following rules:
- Multiple parameters are represented as a tuple of the parameter types.
- A single parameter is represented just using the parameter's type.
- An empty set of parameters is represented using the unit type
().
Types {#types}
Bits {#types-bits}
Given the [bits][lang-bits] definition:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="bits" %}
The FIDL toolchain generates a set of
bitflags called
FileMode with flags FileMode::READ, FileMode::WRITE, and
FileMode::EXECUTE.
The bitflags struct also provides the following methods:
get_unknown_bits(&self) -> u16: Returns a primitive value containing only the unknown members from this bits value. For [strict][lang-flexible] bits, it is marked#[deprecated]and always returns 0.has_unknown_bits(&self) -> bool: Returns whether this value contains any unknown bits. For [strict][lang-flexible] bits, it is marked#[deprecated]and always returnsfalse.
The generated FileMode struct always has the complete set of #[derive]
rules.
Example usage:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="bits" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Enums {#types-enums}
Given the [enum][lang-enums] definition:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="enums" %}
The FIDL toolchain generates a Rust enum using the specified underlying type,
or u32 if none is specified:
#[derive(Copy, Clone, Debug, Eq, PartialEq, Ord, PartialOrd, Hash)]
#[repr(u32)]
pub enum LocationType {
Museum = 1,
Airport = 2,
Restaurant = 3,
}
With the following methods:
from_primitive(prim: u32) -> Option<Self>: ReturnsSomeof the enum variant corresponding to the discriminant value if any, andNoneotherwise.into_primitive(&self) -> u32: Returns the underlying discriminant value.validate(self) -> Result<Self, u32>: ReturnsOkof the value if it corresponds to a known member, or anErrof the underlying primitive value otherwise. For [strict][lang-flexible] types, it is marked#[deprecated]and always returnsOk.is_unknown(&self) -> bool: Returns whether this enum is unknown. For [strict][lang-flexible] types, it is marked#[deprecated]and always returnsfalse.
If LocationType is [flexible][lang-flexible], it will have the following
additional methods:
from_primitive_allow_unknown(prim: u32) -> Self: Create an instance of the enum from a primitive value.unknown() -> Self: Return a placeholder unknown enum value. If the enum contains a member marked with [[Unknown]][unknown-attr], then the value returned by this method contains the value of specified unknown member.
The generated LocationType enum always has the complete set of #[derive]
rules.
Example usage:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="enums_init" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
To provide source-compatibility, [flexible][lang-flexible] enums have an unknown
macro that should be used to match against unknown members instead of the _
pattern. For example, see the use of the LocationTypeUnknown!() macro:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="enums_flexible_match" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
The unknown macro acts the same as a _ pattern, but it can be configured to
expand to an exhaustive match. This is useful for discovering missing cases.
Structs {#types-structs}
Given the [struct][lang-structs] declaration:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="structs" %}
The FIDL toolchain generates a Rust struct:
#[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone, Eq, PartialEq, Ord, PartialOrd, Hash)]
pub struct Color {
pub id: u32,
pub name: String,
}
Note: The Rust bindings do not support default values for FIDL struct members,
so the default value for name does not affect the generated Rust struct.
The generated Color struct follows the #[derive] rules.
Example usage:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="structs" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Unions {#types-unions}
Given the [union][lang-unions] definition:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="unions" %}
The FIDL toolchain generates a Rust enum:
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Eq, PartialEq, Ord, PartialOrd, Hash)]
pub enum JsonValue {
IntValue(i32),
StringValue(String),
}
With the following methods:
validate(self) -> Result<Self, (u64, Vec<u8>)>: ReturnsOkof the value if it corresponds to a known variant, or anErrcontaining the ordinal and raw bytes otherwise. For [resource][lang-resource] types, theVec<u8>changes tofidl::UnknownData. For [strict][lang-flexible] types, it is marked#[deprecated]and always returnsOk.is_unknown(&self) -> bool: Returns whether this union is unknown. Always returnsfalsefor non-flexible union types. For [strict][lang-flexible] types, it is marked#[deprecated]and always returnsfalse.
If JsonValue is [flexible][lang-flexible], it will have the following
additional methods:
unknown(ordinal: u64, data: Vec<u8>) -> Self: Create an unknown union value. This should only be used in tests. For [resource][lang-resource] types, theVec<u8>changes tofidl::UnknownData.)
The generated JsonValue enum follows the #[derive] rules.
Example usage:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="unions_init" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Flexible unions and unknown variants
[Flexible][lang-flexible] unions have an extra variant generated to represent the unknown case. This variant is considered private and should not be referenced directly.
To provide source-compatibility, [flexible][lang-flexible] unions have an
unknown macro that should be used to match against unknown members instead of
the _ pattern. For example, see the use of the JsonValueUnknown!() macro:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="unions_flexible_match" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
The unknown macro acts the same as a _ pattern, but it can be configured to
expand to an exhaustive match. This is useful for discovering missing cases.
When a FIDL message containing a union with an unknown variant is decoded into
JsonValue, JsonValue::validate returns Err(ordinal, data) where ordinal
is the unknown ordinal and data contains the raws bytes and handles.
Encoding a union with an unknown variant writes the unknown data and the original ordinal back onto the wire.
[Strict][lang-flexible] unions fail when decoding an unknown variant. [Flexible][lang-flexible] unions that are [value][lang-resource] types fail when decoding an unknown variant with handles.
Tables {#types-tables}
Given the [table][lang-tables] definition:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="tables" %}
The FIDL toolchain generates a struct User with optional members:
#[derive(Debug, PartialEq)]
pub struct User {
pub age: Option<u8>,
pub name: Option<String>,
pub unknown_data: Option<BTreeMap<u64, Vec<u8>>>,
#[deprecated = "Use `..Foo::empty()` to construct and `..` to match."]
#[doc(hidden)]
pub __non_exhaustive: (),
}
And the following associated constants:
const EMPTY: User: AUserwith each member initialized toNone.
The unknown_data member stores a mapping from ordinal to the raw bytes of any
unknown field that was encountered during decoding. If the table is declared
as a resource, the map will also contain the raw handles in addition to the
bytes (i.e. the unknown_data member will have type
Option<BTreeMap<u64, fidl::UnknownData>>). If no unknown members were
encountered during decoding, the unknown_data field is guaranteed to be
None rather than Some of an empty map.
The __non_exhaustive member prevents intializing the table exhaustively, which
causes API breakage when new fields are added. Instead, you should use the
struct update syntax to fill in unspecified fields with empty(). For example:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="tables_init" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Similarly, tables do not permit exhaustive matching. Instead, you must use the
.. syntax to ignore unspecified fields. For example:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/fidl_crates/src/main.rs" region_tag="tables_match" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
The generated User struct follows the #[derive] rules.
Inline layouts
The generated Rust code uses the [the name reserved by fidlc][anon-names] for
inline layouts.
Derives {#derives}
When the FIDL toolchain generates a new struct or enum for a FIDL type, it
attempts to derive as many traits from a predefined list of useful traits as
it can, including Debug, Copy, Clone, etc. The complete list of traits can
be found in Appendix A.
For aggregate types, such as structs, unions, and tables, the set of derives is
determined by starting with the list of all possible derives and then removing
some based on the fields that are transitively present in the type. For example,
aggregate types that transitively contain a vector do not derive Copy, and
types that my contain a handle (i.e. types that are not marked as
[resource][lang-resource]) do not derive Copy and Clone. When in doubt,
refer to the generated code to check which traits are derived by a specific
type. See Appendix B for implementation details.
Protocols {#protocols}
Given a [protocol][lang-protocols]:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/fuchsia.examples/types.test.fidl" region_tag="protocols" %}
Note: The MakeMove method above returns a bool representing success, and a
optional response value. This is considered un-idiomatic, you should use an error type
instead.
The main entrypoint for interacting with TicTacToe is the TicTacToeMarker
struct, which contains two associated types:
Proxy: The associated proxy type for use with async clients. In this example, this is a generatedTicTacToeProxytype. Synchronous clients should useTicTacToeSynchronousProxydirectly (see Synchronous), which is not stored in an associated type on theTicTacToeMarker.RequestStream: The associated request stream that servers implementing this protocol will need to handle. In this example, this isTicTacToeRequestStream, which is generated by FIDL.
Additionally, TicTacToeMarker has the following associated constants from
implementing fidl::endpoints::ProtocolMarker:
DEBUG_NAME: &’static str: The name of the service suitable for debug purposes.
Note: To use DEBUG_NAME you must import the ProtocolMarker trait.
Other code may be generated depending on the Protocol and method attributes applied to the protocol or its methods.
Client {#protocols-client}
Asynchronous {#protocols-client-asynchronous}
For asynchronous clients, the FIDL toolchain generates a TicTacToeProxy struct
with the following:
Associated types:
TicTacToeProxy::MakeMoveResponseFut: TheFuturetype for the response of a two way method. This type implementsstd::future::Future<Output = Result<(bool, Option<Box<GameState>>), fidl::Error>> + Send.TicTacToeProxy::OnOpponentMoveResponseFut: TheFuturetype for an incoming event. This type implementsstd::future::Future<Output = Result<GameState, fidl::Error>> + Send
Methods:
new(channel: fidl::AsyncChannel) -> TicTacToeProxy: Create a new proxy forTicTacToe.take_event_stream(&self) -> TicTacToeEventStream: Get aStreamof events from the server end (see Events).
Methods from implementing fidl::endpoints::Proxy:
from_channel(channel: fidl::AsyncChannel) -> TicTacToeProxy: Same asTicTacToeProxy::new.into_channel(self) -> Result<fidl::AsyncChannel>: Attempt to convert the proxy back into a channel.as_channel(&self) -> &fidl::AsyncChannel: Get a reference to the proxy's underlying channelis_closed(&self) -> bool: Check if the proxy has received thePEER_CLOSEDsignal.on_closed<'a>(&'a self) -> fuchsia_async::OnSignals<'a>: Get a future that completes when the proxy receives thePEER_CLOSEDsignal.
Note: To use the above methods you must import the Proxy trait.
Methods from implementing TicTacToeProxyInterface:
start_game(&self, mut start_first: bool) -> Result<(), fidl::Error>: Proxy method for a fire and forget protocol method. It takes as arguments the request parameters and returns an empty result.make_move(&self, mut row: u8, mut col: u8) -> Self::MakeMoveResponseFut: Proxy method for a two way method. It takes as arguments the request parameters and returns aFutureof the response.
An example of setting up an asynchronous proxy is available in the [Rust tutorial][tutorial].
The TicTacToeProxyInterface trait can be useful for testing client code. For
example, if you write a function that takes &T as a parameter where T:
TicTacToeProxyInterface, you can unit test it with a fake proxy type:
use futures::future::{ready, Ready};
struct FakeTicTacToeProxy {
move_response: (bool, Option<Box<GameState>>),
}
impl TicTacToeProxyInterface for FakeTicTacToeProxy {
fn start_game(&self, mut start_first: bool) -> Result<(), fidl::Error> {}
type MakeMoveResponseFut = Ready<fidl::Result<(bool, Option<Box<GameState>>)>>;
fn make_move(&self, mut row: u8, mut col: u8) -> Self::MakeMoveResponseFut {
ready(self.move_response.clone())
}
}
Synchronous {#protocols-client-synchronous}
For synchronous clients of the TicTacToe protocol, the FIDL toolchain
generates a TicTacToeSynchronousProxy struct with the following methods:
new(channel: fidl::Channel) -> TicTacToeSynchronousProxy: Returns a new synchronous proxy over the client end of a channel. The server end is assumed to implement theTicTacToeprotocol.into_channel(self) -> fidl::Channel: Convert the proxy back into a channel.start_game(&self, mut a: i64) -> Result<(), fidl::Error>: Proxy method for a fire and forget method: it takes the request parameters as arguments and returns an empty result.make_move(&self, mut row: u8, mut col: u8, __deadline: zx::Time) -> Result<(bool, Option<Box<GameState>>), fidl::Error>: Proxy method for a two way method. It takes the request parameters as arguments followed by a deadline parameter, which dictates how long the method call will wait for a response (orzx::Time::INFINITEto block indefinitely). It returns aResultof the response parameters.wait_for_event(&self, deadline: zx::Time) -> Result<TicTacToeEvent, fidl::Error>: Blocks until an event is received or the deadline expires (usezx::Time::INFINITEto block indefinitely). It returns aResultof theTicTacToeEventenum.
An example of setting up a synchronous proxy is available in the [Rust tutorial][tutorial].
Server {#protocols-server}
Protocol request stream {#protocol-request-stream}
To represent the stream of incoming requests to a server, the FIDL toolchain
generates a TicTacToeRequestStream type that implements futures::Stream<Item
= Result<TicTacToeRequest, fidl::Error>> as well as
fidl::endpoints::RequestStream. Each protocol has a corresponding request
stream type.
Request enum {#request-enum}
TicTacToeRequest is an enum representing the possible requests of the
TicTacToe protocol. It has the following variants:
StartGame { start_first: bool, control_handle: TicTacToeControlHandle }: A fire and forget request, which contains the request parameters and a control handle.MakeMove { row: u8, col: u8, responder: TicTacToeMakeMoveResponder }: A two way method request, which contains the request parameters and a responder.
One such enum is generated for each protocol.
Request responder {#request-responder}
Each two way method has a corresponding generated responder type, which the
server uses to respond to a request. In this example, which only has one two way
method, the FIDL toolchain generates TicTacToeMakeMoveResponder, which
provides the following methods:
send(self, mut success: bool, mut new_state: Option<&mut GameState>) -> Result<(), fidl::Error>: Sends a response.send_no_shutdown_on_err(self, mut success: bool, mut new_state: Option<&mut GameState>) -> Result<(), fidl::Error>: Similar tosendbut does not shut down the channel if an error occurs.control_handle(&self) -> &TicTacToeControlHandle: Get the underlying control handle.drop_without_shutdown(mut self): Drop the Responder without shutting down the channel.
Protocol control handle {#protocol-control-handle}
The FIDL toolchain generates TicTacToeControlHandle to encapsulate the client
endpoint of the TicTacToe protocol on the server side. It contains the
following methods:
shutdown(&self): Shut down the channel.shutdown_with_epitaph(&self, status: zx_status::Status): Send an epitaph and then shut down the channel.send_on_opponent_move(&self, mut new_state: &mut GameState) -> Result<(), fidl::Error>: Proxy method for an event, which takes as arguments the event’s parameters and returns an empty result (see Events).
Events {#protocols-events}
Client {#protocols-events-client}
For receiving events on the asynchronous client, the FIDL toolchain generates a
TicTacToeEventStream, which can be obtained using the take_event_stream()
method on the TicTacToeProxy.
TicTacToeEventStream implements futures::Stream<Item = Result<TicTacToeEvent,
fidl::Error>>.
For receiving events on the synchronous client, the FIDL toolchain generates a
wait_for_event method on the
TicTacToeSynchronousProxy that returns a
TicTacToeEvent.
TicTacToeEvent is an enum representing the possible events. It has the
following variants:
OnOpponentMove { new_state: GameState }: Discriminant for theTicTacToeEventevent.
And provides the following methods:
into_on_opponent_move(self) -> Option<GameState>: ReturnSomeof the parameters of the event, orNoneif the variant does not match the method call.
Server {#protocols-events-server}
Servers can send events by using the control handle
corresponding to the protocol. The control handle can be obtained through a
TicTacToeRequest received from the client. For fire and forget methods, the
control handle is available through the control_handle field, and for two way
methods, it is available through the control_handle() method on the responder.
A control handle for a protocol can also be obtained through the corresponding
request stream (in this example, TicTacToeRequestStream), since it implements
fidl::endpoints::RequestStream.
Results {#protocols-results}
For a method with an error type:
protocol TicTacToe {
MakeMove(struct {
row uint8;
col uint8;
}) -> (struct {
new_state GameState;
}) error MoveError;
};
The FIDL toolchain generates a public TicTacToeMakeMoveResult type alias for
std::result::Result<GameState, MoveError>. The rest of the bindings code for
this method is generated as if it has a single response parameter result of
type TicTacToeMakeMoveResult. The type used for a successful result follows
the parameter type conversion rules.
Protocol composition {#protocol-composition}
FIDL does not have a concept of inheritance, and generates full code as described above for all [composed protocols][lang-protocol-composition]. In other words, the code generated for the following:
Is the same as the following code:
Protocol and method attributes {#protocol-method-attributes}
Transitional
The @transitional attribute only affects the ProxyInterface trait, which is
sometimes used in test code. For non-test code, protocols can be transitioned on
the server side by having request handlers temporarily use a catch-all match arm
in the Request handler. Client code does not need to be soft transitioned
since the generated proxy will always implement all methods.
For methods annotated with the @transitional attribute, the ProxyInterface
trait for asynchronous clients provides
default implementations that call unimplemented!(). As noted earlier, this has
no effect on the Proxy type, which always implements all the trait's methods.
However, it can help for soft transitions when the ProxyInterface trait is
used for fake proxies in client-side unit tests.
Discoverable
For protocols annotated with the @discoverable attribute, the Marker type
additionally implements the fidl::endpoints::DiscoverableProtocolMarker trait.
This provides the PROTOCOL_NAME associated constant.
Explicit encoding and decoding {#encoding-decoding}
FIDL messages are automatically encoded when they are sent and decoded when they are received. You can also encode and decode explicitly, for example to persist FIDL data to a file. This works for [non-resource][lang-resource] structs, tables, and unions.
Simple method {#encoding-decoding-simple-method}
The easiest way to to explicitly encode and decode is to use
[encode_persistent] and [decode_persistent].
For example, you can encode a Color struct:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/persistence/src/lib.rs" region_tag="simple_method_encode" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
And then decode it later:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/persistence/src/lib.rs" region_tag="simple_method_decode" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Separating the header
The simple method automatically places a
small header at the beginning that stores FIDL metadata. For advanced use cases,
you can manage the header manually. For example, you can encode both a
JsonValue union and a User table using
only one header instead of two:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/persistence/src/lib.rs" region_tag="separate_header_encode" adjust_indentation="auto" %}
Then, you must first decode the header and use it to decode the other values:
{% includecode gerrit_repo="fuchsia/fuchsia" gerrit_path="examples/fidl/rust/persistence/src/lib.rs" region_tag="separate_header_decode" adjust_indentation="auto" %}

Appendix B: Fill derives {#fill-derives}
The calculation of traits derivation rules is visible in fidlgen_rust:
