Struct google_api_proto::google::apps::card::v1::TextInput

pub struct TextInput {
    pub name: String,
    pub label: String,
    pub hint_text: String,
    pub value: String,
    pub type: i32,
    pub on_change_action: Option<Action>,
    pub initial_suggestions: Option<Suggestions>,
    pub auto_complete_action: Option<Action>,
    pub placeholder_text: String,
}

A field in which users can enter text. Supports suggestions and on-change actions. For an example in Google Chat apps, see Add a field in which a user can enter text.

Chat apps receive and can process the value of entered text during form input events. For details about working with form inputs, see Receive form data.

When you need to collect undefined or abstract data from users, use a text input. To collect defined or enumerated data from users, use the [SelectionInput][google.apps.card.v1.SelectionInput] widget.

Fields

name: String

The name by which the text input is identified in a form input event.

For details about working with form inputs, see Receive form data.

label: String

The text that appears above the text input field in the user interface.

Specify text that helps the user enter the information your app needs. For example, if you are asking someone’s name, but specifically need their surname, write surname instead of name.

Required if hintText is unspecified. Otherwise, optional.

hint_text: String

Text that appears below the text input field meant to assist users by prompting them to enter a certain value. This text is always visible.

Required if label is unspecified. Otherwise, optional.

value: String

The value entered by a user, returned as part of a form input event.

For details about working with form inputs, see Receive form data.

type: i32

How a text input field appears in the user interface. For example, whether the field is single or multi-line.

on_change_action: Option<Action>

What to do when a change occurs in the text input field. For example, a user adding to the field or deleting text.

Examples of actions to take include running a custom function or opening a dialog in Google Chat.

initial_suggestions: Option<Suggestions>

Suggested values that users can enter. These values appear when users click inside the text input field. As users type, the suggested values dynamically filter to match what the users have typed.

For example, a text input field for programming language might suggest Java, JavaScript, Python, and C++. When users start typing Jav, the list of suggestions filters to show just Java and JavaScript.

Suggested values help guide users to enter values that your app can make sense of. When referring to JavaScript, some users might enter javascript and others java script. Suggesting JavaScript can standardize how users interact with your app.

When specified, TextInput.type is always SINGLE_LINE, even if it’s set to MULTIPLE_LINE.

Google Workspace Add-ons and Chat apps:

auto_complete_action: Option<Action>

Optional. Specify what action to take when the text input field provides suggestions to users who interact with it.

If unspecified, the suggestions are set by initialSuggestions and are processed by the client.

If specified, the app takes the action specified here, such as running a custom function.

Google Workspace Add-ons:

placeholder_text: String

Text that appears in the text input field when the field is empty. Use this text to prompt users to enter a value. For example, Enter a number from 0 to 100.

Implementations

impl TextInput

pub fn type(&self) -> Type

Returns the enum value of type, or the default if the field is set to an invalid enum value.

pub fn set_type(&mut self, value: Type)

Sets type to the provided enum value.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for TextInput

fn clone(&self) -> TextInput

Returns a copy of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for TextInput

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for TextInput

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl Message for TextInput

fn encoded_len(&self) -> usize

Returns the encoded length of the message without a length delimiter.

fn clear(&mut self)

Clears the message, resetting all fields to their default.

fn encode(&self, buf: &mut impl BufMut) -> Result<(), EncodeError>

where Self: Sized,

Encodes the message to a buffer.

fn encode_to_vec(&self) -> Vec<u8>

where Self: Sized,

Encodes the message to a newly allocated buffer.

fn encode_length_delimited( &self, buf: &mut impl BufMut, ) -> Result<(), EncodeError>

where Self: Sized,

Encodes the message with a length-delimiter to a buffer.

fn encode_length_delimited_to_vec(&self) -> Vec<u8>

where Self: Sized,

Encodes the message with a length-delimiter to a newly allocated buffer.

fn decode(buf: impl Buf) -> Result<Self, DecodeError>

where Self: Default,

Decodes an instance of the message from a buffer.

fn decode_length_delimited(buf: impl Buf) -> Result<Self, DecodeError>

where Self: Default,

Decodes a length-delimited instance of the message from the buffer.

fn merge(&mut self, buf: impl Buf) -> Result<(), DecodeError>

where Self: Sized,

Decodes an instance of the message from a buffer, and merges it into self.

fn merge_length_delimited(&mut self, buf: impl Buf) -> Result<(), DecodeError>

where Self: Sized,

Decodes a length-delimited instance of the message from buffer, and merges it into self.

impl PartialEq for TextInput

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

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

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

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