How do i split a string twice in rust?

i need split String "fooo:3333#baaar:22222" Firstly by # secondary by :

and result must be <Vec<Vec<&str, i64>>>
for the first step (split by #) i came up with

.split('#').collect::<Vec<&str>>()

but I can't think of a solution for the second step

A Vec<&str, i64> is not a thing, so I assume you meant (&str, i64)

You can create that by splitting first, then mapping over the chunks.

    let v = s
        .split('#') // split first time
        // "map" over the chunks and only take those where
        // the conversion to i64 worked
        .filter_map(|c| { 
            // split once returns an `Option<(&str, &str)>`
            c.split_once(':')
                // so we use `and_then` and return another `Option`
                // when the conversion worked (`.ok()` converts the `Result` to an `Option`)
                .and_then(|(l, r)| r.parse().ok().map(|r| (l, r)))
        })
        .collect::<Vec<(&str, i64)>>();

You can call a closure on each element of an iterator returned by the first split and split inside closure and push values to the vector.

    let mut out = Vec::new();
    s.split('#').for_each(|x| out.push(x.split(":").collect::<Vec<&str>>()));
