From ed3dba98c7a7dfa5119957b76d56b192daf34fe2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tsukasa OI Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2025 04:55:51 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] rustdoc: Allow multiple references to a single footnote MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Multiple references to a single footnote is a part of GitHub Flavored Markdown syntax (although not explicitly documented as well as regular footnotes, it is implemented in GitHub's fork of CommonMark) and not prohibited by rustdoc. cf. However, using it causes multiple "sup" elements with the same "id" attribute, which is invalid per the HTML specification. Still, not only this is a valid GitHub Flavored Markdown syntax, this is helpful on certain cases and actually tested (accidentally) in tests/rustdoc/footnote-reference-in-footnote-def.rs. This commit keeps track of the number of references per footnote and gives unique ID to each reference. It also emits *all* back links from a footnote to its references as "↩" (return symbol) plus a numeric list in superscript. As a known limitation, it assumes that all references to a footnote are rendered (this is not always true if a dangling footnote has one or more references but considered a reasonable compromise). Also note that, this commit is designed so that no HTML changes will occur unless multiple references to a single footnote is actually used. --- src/librustdoc/html/markdown/footnotes.rs | 36 ++++++++++++++----- tests/rustdoc/footnote-reference-ids.rs | 23 ++++++++++++ .../footnote-reference-in-footnote-def.rs | 2 +- 3 files changed, 51 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/rustdoc/footnote-reference-ids.rs diff --git a/src/librustdoc/html/markdown/footnotes.rs b/src/librustdoc/html/markdown/footnotes.rs index ded0585ddccda..60b2cf268accc 100644 --- a/src/librustdoc/html/markdown/footnotes.rs +++ b/src/librustdoc/html/markdown/footnotes.rs @@ -23,6 +23,8 @@ struct FootnoteDef<'a> { content: Vec>, /// The number that appears in the footnote reference and list. id: usize, + /// The number of footnote references. + num_refs: usize, } impl<'a, I: Iterator>> Footnotes<'a, I> { @@ -33,21 +35,28 @@ impl<'a, I: Iterator>> Footnotes<'a, I> { Footnotes { inner: iter, footnotes: FxIndexMap::default(), existing_footnotes, start_id } } - fn get_entry(&mut self, key: &str) -> (&mut Vec>, usize) { + fn get_entry(&mut self, key: &str) -> (&mut Vec>, usize, &mut usize) { let new_id = self.footnotes.len() + 1 + self.start_id; let key = key.to_owned(); - let FootnoteDef { content, id } = - self.footnotes.entry(key).or_insert(FootnoteDef { content: Vec::new(), id: new_id }); + let FootnoteDef { content, id, num_refs } = self + .footnotes + .entry(key) + .or_insert(FootnoteDef { content: Vec::new(), id: new_id, num_refs: 0 }); // Don't allow changing the ID of existing entrys, but allow changing the contents. - (content, *id) + (content, *id, num_refs) } fn handle_footnote_reference(&mut self, reference: &CowStr<'a>) -> Event<'a> { // When we see a reference (to a footnote we may not know) the definition of, // reserve a number for it, and emit a link to that number. - let (_, id) = self.get_entry(reference); + let (_, id, num_refs) = self.get_entry(reference); + *num_refs += 1; + let fnref_suffix = { + let num_refs = *num_refs; + if num_refs <= 1 { "".to_owned() } else { format!("-{num_refs}") } + }; let reference = format!( - "{1}", + "{1}", id, // Although the ID count is for the whole page, the footnote reference // are local to the item so we make this ID "local" when displayed. @@ -85,7 +94,7 @@ impl<'a, I: Iterator>> Iterator for Footnotes<'a, I> { // When we see a footnote definition, collect the assocated content, and store // that for rendering later. let content = self.collect_footnote_def(); - let (entry_content, _) = self.get_entry(&def); + let (entry_content, _, _) = self.get_entry(&def); *entry_content = content; } Some(e) => return Some(e), @@ -113,7 +122,7 @@ fn render_footnotes_defs(mut footnotes: Vec>) -> String { // browser generated for
