leftpad-rs

Note: Rust's builtin format! can achieve the same functionality: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/fmt/index.html#fillalignment

This crate provides generic left-padding functions for strings, including both &str and String.

Import with extern crate left_pad;.

Usage example:

use left_pad::{leftpad, leftpad_with};

assert_eq!(leftpad("blubb", 7), "  blubb");
assert_eq!(leftpad_with("blubb", 7, '.'), "..blubb");

let s: String = "blubb".to_owned();
assert_eq!(leftpad(s, 7), "  blubb");
