Which of these code styles do you find preferable?
First option using mut with constructor in the beginning:
let mut post_form = PostInsertForm::new(
data.name.trim().to_string(),
local_user_view.person.id,
data.community_id,
);
post_form.url = url.map(Into::into);
post_form.body = body;
post_form.alt_text = data.alt_text.clone();
post_form.nsfw = data.nsfw;
post_form.language_id = language_id;
Second option without mut and constructor at the end:
let post_form = PostInsertForm {
url: url.map(Into::into),
body,
alt_text: data.alt_text.clone(),
nsfw: data.nsfw,
language_id,
..PostInsertForm::new(
data.name.trim().to_string(),
local_user_view.person.id,
data.community_id,
)
};

@livingcoder @nutomic that's a nice one. Had never thought of it. But I'd just use the builder pattern.
