Summary

A toolbox library that holds a useful collection of small unitilies written in Rust that make our life easier when writting Rust applications.

Utilities provided:

Mathematics

A collection of useful methematic methods used in various DSP and other applications

Archives

Extract files from Tar, Gz and Zip Files

Mininal Example:

let archive: PathBuf = std::env::current_exe()
    .unwrap()
    .parent()
    .unwrap()
    .join("test_archive.tar.gz");

let file: PathBuf = "treasure.hex".into();

let destination: PathBuf = std::env::current_exe()
    .unwrap()
    .parent()
    .unwrap();

archives::extract_file(archive, ArchiveType::Gz, file, destination).unwrap();

Bits

Convertions between different representations of raw bit streams

Mininal Example:

let received_bit_stream: u64 = 0b110101000100111010110;

let bytes = bits::bits_to_vec(received_bit_stream,21);

println!("Received bit stream: {} ", bits::bit_vec_to_hex_string(&bytes));

Config

Manipulate INI-style configuration files by checking for changes, updates etc

Mininal Example:

    let mut config_changes = ini_compare(
        &old_config_path.to_path_buf(),
        &new_config_path.to_path_buf(),
    )
    .unwrap();

   println!("{:#?}", config_changes);

Logger

Initialize terminal and file loggers fast. Macros for log printing to either log or stdout (if a global logger is not initialized)

Mininal Example:

    log_info!("INFO Test TO PRINTLN!");
    log_debug!("DEBUG Test TO PRINTLN!");

    terminal_logger_init(LevelFilter::Debug);

    log_info!("INFO Test TO LOGGER!");
    log_debug!("DEBUG Test TO LOGGER!");

Paths

Search paths for a specific file in directories with known or unknown paths

Mininal Example:

    let paths = IncludePathsBuilder::new()
            .include_exe_dir()
            .include_known("/home/user/")
            .include_unknown("utils-box")
            .build();

        let pattern = "test_*.tar";

        let file_found_in = paths.search_glob(pattern);

Stopwatch and Timekeper

Keep track of execution times in various points in binaries. Print records.

Minimal Example:

    let mut s = TimeKeeper::init();
    let mut t = TimeKeeper::init();

    s.totals();

    s.lap("init");

    for _ in 0..5 {
        std::thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(5));
        s.lap("loop");
        t.lap("loop");
    }
    s.lap_totals("loop");
    std::thread::sleep(Duration::from_millis(1234));
    s.lap("after");

    s.totals();
    t.totals();

    s.merge(t);

    s.totals();

Versions

version parser from strings using the semver.org notations

Mininal Example:

   let version = "0.9.2-1e341234";

    let mut expected = Version::new(0, 9, 2);
    expected.pre = Prerelease::new("1e341234").unwrap();

    assert_eq!(semver_parse(version).unwrap(), expected);

SSH Client

Connect via SSH to a server to perform commands, upload & download files

Mininal Example:

    let ssh = SshClient::local("user".to_string(), "1234".to_string()).unwrap();

    let stdout = ssh.execute_cmd("ls").unwrap();

    println!("{:?}", stdout);

TCP Client

Connect via TCP to a socket to send and receive data

Mininal Example:

    let mut tcp_client = TcpClient::new("192.168.1.17".to_string(), 36457)?;

    let data: Vec<u8> = vec![8, 30, 15, 30, 5, 19, 0, 7];

    tcp_client.send(&data)?;

    // Block and wait for response
    let resp = tcp_client.receive()?;

     println!("{:?}", resp);

TCP Client

Connect via UDP to a socket to send and receive data

Mininal Example:

     let mut udp =
            UdpClient::new("0.0.0.0".to_string(), "192.168.1.31".to_string(), 6123).unwrap();

    udp.send(b"\r").unwrap();

    // Block and wait for response
    let data = udp.receive().unwrap();

    println!("{:?} => {}", data, String::from_utf8_lossy(&data));

ZMQ Client

Connect to a ZMQ server to send and receive data

Mininal Example:

    let zmq_client = ZmqClient::new(("192.168.1.17".to_string(), 36457)?;

    let data: Vec<u8> = vec![8, 30, 15, 30, 5, 19, 0, 7];

    zmq_client.send(&data)?;

    // Block and wait for response
    let resp = zmq_client.receive()?;

    println!("{:?}", resp);
