async-codec 0.4.1

//! # Async Encode/Decode helpers
//!
//! For prior art, see [tokio-codec](https://crates.io/crates/tokio-codec).
//! This borrows many of the ideas that originated there, though with a simpler
//! and `no_std`-compatible approach. No allocation is strictly required by
//! implementers of the [Encode] or [Decode] traits, making them suitable for
//! embedded applications.
//!
//! ## Encoders
//!
//! Encoders are types that implement the [Encode] trait. Consumers of this
//! trait will provide an `Item` to be encoded, along with a buffer into which
//! the resulting bytes should be placed. The `Encode`r may return one of three
//! from this operation:
//!
//! * `EncodeResult::Ok(n)`: The item was successfully encodeded into the
//!   provided buffer and took `n` bytes.
//! * `EncodeResult::Err(e)`: There was an unrecoverable error encoding the
//!   item. Subsequent calls with the same item should return the same error.
//! * `EncodeResult::Overflow(n)`: The item could be encoded, but the encoded
//!   representation would overflow the buffer. If `n > 0`, then a buffer of
//!   length `n` is required to hold the serialized item.
//!
//! Upon an `Overflow` result, the caller should allocate a bigger buffer (if
//! possible), and attempt the operation again. `Encode` implementations may
//! keep a previously encoded `Item` in an internal buffer to make re-attempted
//! encodings cheaper. If this approach is used, the [Encode::reset] method must
//! also be implemented.
//!
//! ## Decoders
//!
//! Decoders implement the [Decode] trait. To decode an `Item`, callers provide
//! the decoder with a buffer containing bytes from the stream. The decoder
//! returns a `usize` indicating that it consumed some number of bytes from the
//! buffer, along with one of three results:
//!
//! * `DecodeResult::Ok(item)`: The `item` was successfully decoded
//! * `DecodeResult::Err(e)`: An error `e` arose when decoding the item. This
//!   does not necessarily invalidate the stream.
//! * `DecodeResult::UnexpectedEnd`: Not enough data to decode yet, caller
//!   should read more and try again with more bytes.
//!
//! Decoders are free to consume bytes in-line with returning `UnexpectedEnd`
//! results and keep a running internal buffer of what's been read so far, or
//! they may opt for consuming the bytes for an `Item` all at once. They should
//! consume bytes in the error case as well so that the caller doesn't provide
//! the same bad data twice.
//!
//! ## Framed
//!
//! The [Framed] type provides a wrapper for `AsyncRead + AsyncWrite` streams
//! that applies an `Encode + Decode` object to create an async `Stream + Sink`
//! of `Item`s. It manages the reads and writes against the underlying stream
//! and the buffers provided to the encode/decode operations. Its error types
//! ([ReadFrameError] and [WriteFrameError]) differentiate between IO errors in
//! the stream (which are usually fatal), and codec errors (which might not be).
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::{
//!     io,
//!     str::Utf8Error,
//! };
//!
//! use futures::{
//!     io::Cursor,
//!     prelude::*,
//! };
//!
//! use async_codec::*;
//!
//! struct LineCodec;
//!
//! impl Encode for LineCodec {
//!     type Item = String;
//!     type Error = ();
//!     fn encode(&mut self, item: &String, buf: &mut [u8]) -> EncodeResult<()> {
//!         let needed = item.as_bytes().len() + 1;
//!         if buf.len() < needed {
//!             return EncodeResult::Overflow(needed);
//!         }
//!         buf[..needed - 1].copy_from_slice(item.as_bytes());
//!         buf[needed - 1] = b'\n';
//!         Ok(needed).into()
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! impl Decode for LineCodec {
//!     type Item = String;
//!     type Error = Utf8Error;
//!
//!     fn decode(&mut self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> (usize, DecodeResult<String, Utf8Error>) {
//!         let newline = match buf.iter().position(|b| *b == b'\n') {
//!             Some(idx) => idx,
//!             None => return (0, DecodeResult::UnexpectedEnd),
//!         };
//!         let string_bytes = &buf[..newline];
//!         (
//!             newline + 1,
//!             std::str::from_utf8(string_bytes).map(String::from).into(),
//!         )
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! const SHAKESPEARE: &str = r#"Now is the winter of our discontent
//! Made glorious summer by this sun of York.
