encode_text
string proto.encode_text(x)Returns the struct argument's encoding as a text-format protocol message. The data structure must be recursively composed of strings, ints, floats, or bools, or structs, sequences, and dicts of these types.
A struct is converted to a message. Fields are emitted in name order. Each struct field whose value is None is ignored.
A sequence (such as a list or tuple) is converted to a repeated field. Its elements must not be sequences or dicts.
A dict is converted to a repeated field of messages with fields named 'key' and 'value'.
Entries are emitted in iteration (insertion) order.
The dict's keys must be strings or ints, and its values must not be sequences or dicts.
Examples:
proto.encode_text(struct(field=123))
# field: 123
proto.encode_text(struct(field=True))
# field: true
proto.encode_text(struct(field=[1, 2, 3]))
# field: 1
# field: 2
# field: 3
proto.encode_text(struct(field='text', ignored_field=None))
# field: "text"
proto.encode_text(struct(field=struct(inner_field='text', ignored_field=None)))
# field {
# inner_field: "text"
# }
proto.encode_text(struct(field=[struct(inner_field=1), struct(inner_field=2)]))
# field {
# inner_field: 1
# }
# field {
# inner_field: 2
# }
proto.encode_text(struct(field=struct(inner_field=struct(inner_inner_field='text'))))
# field {
# inner_field {
# inner_inner_field: "text"
# }
# }
proto.encode_text(struct(foo={4: 3, 2: 1}))
# foo: {
# key: 4
# value: 3
# }
# foo: {
# key: 2
# value: 1
# }
