Trait MutablePluginModel

pub trait MutablePluginModel<Mutate, Context, Output>: Default {
    // Required method
    fn compute_mut(&self, input: &mut Mutate, context: &Context) -> Output;
}

Trait implemented by mutable plugin models that may transform their input in-place while still producing an output.

Unlike PurePluginModel, this trait explicitly allows mutation of the input, making it suitable for in-place normalization, sorting, accumulation, or other performance-sensitive transformations that avoid extra allocations.

Mutation is explicit and opt-in, preserving clarity between pure and state-transforming computations.

Generics

• Mutate: Type of data that will be mutated in-place.
• Context: External parameters or configuration required by the model.
• Output: Type of value produced by the model.

Semantics

• The input may be modified during computation.
• The returned output may be derived from either the original or mutated state.
• Implementations should still remain stateless with respect to internal storage.

Required Methods

fn compute_mut(&self, input: &mut Mutate, context: &Context) -> Output

Computes the model’s output while mutating the input in-place.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
