Example

use std::borrow::Cow;
use persia_speedy::{Readable, Writable, Endianness};

#[derive(PartialEq, Debug, Readable, Writable)]
enum Enum {
    A,
    B,
    C,
}

#[derive(PartialEq, Debug, Readable, Writable)]
struct Struct< 'a > {
    number: u64,
    string: String,
    vector: Vec< u8 >,
    cow: Cow< 'a, [i64] >,
    float: f32,
    enumeration: Enum
}

fn main() {
    let original = Struct {
        number: 0x12345678ABCDEF00,
        string: "A totally pointless string".to_owned(),
        vector: vec![ 1, 2, 3 ],
        cow: Cow::Borrowed( &[ 4, 5, 6 ] ),
        float: 3.1415,
        enumeration: Enum::C
    };

    let endian = Endianness::LittleEndian;
    let bytes = original.write_to_vec_with_ctx( endian ).unwrap();
    let deserialized: Struct =
        Struct::read_from_buffer_with_ctx( endian, &bytes ).unwrap();

    assert_eq!( original, deserialized );
}

Field attributes

#[persia_speedy(length = ...)]

Can be used on most standard containers to specify the field's length. Can refer to any of the previous fields.

For example:

use persia_speedy::{Readable, Writable};

#[derive(Readable, Writable)]
struct Struct {
    byte_count: u8,
    #[speedy(length = byte_count / 4)]
    data: Vec< u32 >
}

Before serializing you need to make sure that whatever is set as length is equal to the .len() of the field; if it's not then you will get an error when trying to serialize it.

Setting this attribute changes the serialization format as follows:

#[speedy(length_type = ...)]

Can be used to specify the exact size of the implicit length field of a container as it is read or written.

Possible values:

• u7 (same as u8, but restricted to 7 bits for u64_varint compatibility)
• u8
• u16
• u32 (default)
• u64_varint

#[speedy(skip)]

Skips a given field when reading and writing.

#[speedy(default_on_eof)]

If an EOF is encountered when reading this field its value will be set to the default value for its type and the EOF will be ignored.

#[speedy(constant_prefix = ...)]

Specifies a static string of bytes which will be written or has to be present when reading before a given field.

Enum attributes

#[speedy(tag_type = ...)]

Can be used to specify the exact size of the enum's tag as it is read or written.

Possible values:

• u7 (same as u8, but restricted to 7 bits for u64_varint compatibility)
• u8
• u16
• u32 (default)
• u64_varint

#[speedy(peek_tag)]

An enum marked with this attribute will not consume its tag value when reading from a stream, nor will it write its own tag when writing.

Enum variant attributes

#[speedy(tag = ...)]

Specifies a preset tag value to be used for a given enum variant.
