I am unsure what the issue is, regarding this error. I cannot seem to find information about the reason a function is expected to be Config (my struct?):

error[E0308]: mismatched types
  --> src/config.rs:57:2
   |
57 |     config_read()
   |     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ expected `Config`, found `()`

config.rs:

use std::fs;
use std::sync::LazyLock;
use serde::Deserialize;


#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct Config {
	pub cert: Cert,
	pub key: Key,
}

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct Cert {
	pub principle: String,
	pub validity: String,
}

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
pub struct Key {
	pub ca_priv_key: String,
	pub user_dir: String,
	pub cert_serial: String,
}


pub fn config_read() {

	// Get the value of the "$HOME" environment variable.
	let home_env = std::env::var("HOME").unwrap();
	// Append the configuration-file directory to the "$HOME" environment-variable value.
	static config_dir: &str = "/.config/signatory";
	// Append the configuration-file filename to the configuration-file directory.
	let config_file = [home_env.clone(), config_dir.to_string(), "/config.toml".to_string()].join("");
	// Parse the keys inside of the configuration-file.
	let config_file_parse = fs::read_to_string(&config_file).unwrap();
	let config: Config = toml::from_str(&config_file_parse).unwrap();
	// Set the values of the OpenSSH-generation for-loop to the values of the configuration-file keys.
	let ca_priv_key = config.key.ca_priv_key;
	let user_dir = config.key.user_dir;
	let cert_serial = config.key.cert_serial;
	let principle = config.cert.principle;
	let validity = config.cert.validity;

}


// Allow the configuration-file structs to be referenced in the OpenSSH-certificate generation code (see generate.rs).
pub static CONFIG: LazyLock<Config> = LazyLock::new (|| {

	config_read()

});
