HLS Playlist

A library for serializing and deserializing HLS playlists (aka extended M3U playlists).

As specified by this updated version of RFC 8216.

Usage

use hls_playlist::tags::Tag;

let mut output = vec![];

Tag::M3u.serialize(&mut output).unwrap();
Tag::XStart { offset_seconds: 10.0, is_precise: false }.serialize(&mut output).unwrap();

assert_eq!(String::from_utf8(output).unwrap(), "\
#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-START:TIME-OFFSET=10
");

Roadmap

This library is 100% finished and feature-complete as far as serializing tags goes, but I'd like to eventually implement a serializer for the higher level playlist representation, and also deserialization.
