Summary

  • derive valid Rust enum variant names from string-literal union arms containing separators or leading non-identifier characters
  • deterministically de-collide normalized variant names without changing their wire values
  • keep classes and transitive function bindings emitted for literals such as "graph.query" and "utf8-lossy"

Fixes #4371

Testing

  • cargo test -p sdkgen_rust --lib
  • cargo clippy -p sdkgen_rust --all-targets -- -D warnings
  • cargo build -p bridge_cffi && cargo test --lib

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved generated Rust enums for unions containing arbitrary string literals.
    • Ensured generated variant names are valid and unique, including punctuation, numeric, empty, colliding, and reserved Self values.
    • Preserved original string values during serialization and verified variant-to-wire-value mappings.
    • Rejected duplicate string-literal wire values and duplicate payload-derived variants.
    • Corrected normalization of non-ASCII string literals.
    • Improved round-trip support for unions containing punctuation and UTF-8 string values.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Rust union generation now normalizes non-identifier literals, rejects duplicate wire values, deconflicts variant names, and preserves wire mappings. Generator and SDK tests cover punctuation, hyphenated, Unicode, and Self literal cases.

Changes

Rust union literal support

Layer / File(s) Summary
String-literal identifier normalization
baml_language/sdks/rust/sdkgen_rust/src/unions.rs
Non-identifier string literals use normalization. The fast path now accepts only ASCII alphanumeric characters. Tests cover normalization, collisions, and Self handling.
Variant validation and deconfliction
baml_language/sdks/rust/sdkgen_rust/src/unions.rs
Validation rejects duplicate string-literal wire values and duplicate payload-derived names. Synthesis assigns unique names when literal and payload variants collide.
Generated wire mapping and SDK round trips
baml_language/sdks/rust/sdkgen_rust/src/lib.rs, baml_language/sdk_tests/crates/rust/type_shapes/customizable/test_complex_models.rs, baml_language/sdk_tests/fixtures/type_shapes/baml_src/ns_complex_models/types.baml
Generator tests verify mappings for all variants, including Self_. SDK fixtures and tests verify wire values and round trips for literals containing dots and hyphens.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to dba23

This change expands generated Rust enum support for string literals, but unresolved cases can still produce SDKs that fail to compile or deserialize values ambiguously. The PR is not ready to merge until these correctness risks are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Poem

A rabbit checked each union name,
And kept each wire value the same.
Self_ now stands clear,
Duplicate strings disappear,
Rust arms safely play the game.

197-203: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Reject duplicate string-literal wire values.

The validation skips every string-literal arm when checking duplicate names. Two identical values such as "draft" | "draft" therefore pass validation.

Synthesis then creates variants such as Draft and Draft_, while both UnionArmKind::StringLiteral arms retain "draft". The generated enum has two variants for one wire value, so deserialization cannot distinguish them.

Track original string values separately. Reject duplicate values. Continue to allow different values that normalize to the same Rust variant name.

Proposed validation change
 let mut has_bare_string_arm = false;
 let mut has_string_literal_arm = false;
 let mut seen_payload_variants = HashSet::new();
+let mut seen_string_literals = HashSet::new();

 match arm {
-    Ty::Literal(baml_base::Literal::String(_), ..) => has_string_literal_arm = true,
+    Ty::Literal(baml_base::Literal::String(value), ..) => {
+        has_string_literal_arm = true;
+        if !seen_string_literals.insert(value.as_str()) {
+            return Some(format!(
+                "union contains duplicate string literal {value:?}"
+            ));
+        }
+    }

Add a unit test for two identical string literals.

Use a Rust-compatible identifier predicate.

string_literal_variant_name("a²") returns . char::is_alphanumeric() accepts U+00B2, but is not a valid Rust identifier. idents::ident then panics during SDK generation. Use is_ascii_alphanumeric() in the fast path and add a regression test.

Assert variant-to-wire associations directly.

The test only checks that each wire string appears somewhere in the generated source. It does not prove that Self_ maps to "self" or that the other normalized variants map to their original values.

Assert the exact generated mapping for each variant, or execute a generated serialization/deserialization round trip.

Addressed all three outside-diff CodeRabbit findings in 4044006: duplicate string-literal wire values now fail closed, fast-path identifier validation is ASCII-safe (including coverage), and the end-to-end regression now asserts each generated variant is paired with its exact wire value. cargo test -p sdkgen_rust --lib passes all 56 tests and clippy remains clean.
