<p>This module contains all the Serde support for serializing Rust structures
into TOML documents (as strings). Note that some top-level functions here
are also provided at the top of the crate.</p>
<p>Note that the TOML format has a restriction that if a table itself contains
tables, all keys with non-table values must be emitted first. This is
typically easy to ensure happens when you’re defining a <code>struct</code> as you can
reorder the fields manually, but when working with maps (such as <code>BTreeMap</code>
or <code>HashMap</code>) this can lead to serialization errors. In those situations you
may use the <code>tables_last</code> function in this module like so:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="attribute">#[derive(Serialize)]
</span><span class="kw">struct </span>Manifest {
package: Package,
<span class="attribute">#[serde(serialize_with = <span class="string">&quot;toml::ser::tables_last&quot;</span>)]
</span>dependencies: HashMap&lt;String, Dependency&gt;,
}</code></pre></div>
