compact-encoding 2.2.0

#![forbid(unsafe_code, missing_docs)]
#![cfg_attr(test, deny(warnings))]
//! # Series of compact encoding schemes for building small and fast parsers and serializers
//!
//! Binary compatible with the
//! [original JavaScript compact-encoding library](https://github.com/compact-encoding/compact-encoding/).
//!
//! ## Usage
//!
//! The simplest way to encoded and decode a some data is using the [`to_encoded_bytes`] and
//! [`map_decode`] macros:
//! ```
//! use compact_encoding::{map_decode, to_encoded_bytes};
//!
//! let number = 41_u32;
//! let word = "hi";
//!
//! let encoded_buffer = to_encoded_bytes!(number, word);
//! let ((number_dec, word_dec), remaining_buffer) = map_decode!(&encoded_buffer, [u32, String]);
//!
//! assert!(remaining_buffer.is_empty());
//! assert_eq!(number_dec, number);
//! assert_eq!(word_dec, word);
//! # Ok::<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>>(())
//! ```
//! ### Manual encoding and decoding
//!
//! When more fine-grained control of encoding and decoding is needed you manually do each step of
//! encoding and decoding like in the following example, where we want to use a fixed width
//! encoding for `number` (instead of the default variable width encoding). It shows how to
//! manually calculate the needed buffer size, create the buffer, encode data, and decode it.
//! ```
//! use compact_encoding::{CompactEncoding, FixedWidthEncoding, FixedWidthU32};
//!
//! let number = 41_u32;
//! let word = "hi";
//!
//! // Use `encoded_size` to figure out how big a buffer should be
//! let size = number.as_fixed_width().encoded_size()? + word.encoded_size()?;
//!
//! // Create a buffer with the calculated size
//! let mut buffer = vec![0; size];
//! assert_eq!(buffer.len(), 4 + 1 + 2);
//!
//! // Then actually encode the values
//! let mut remaining_buffer = number.as_fixed_width().encode(&mut buffer)?;
//! remaining_buffer = word.encode(remaining_buffer)?;
//! assert!(remaining_buffer.is_empty());
//! assert_eq!(buffer.to_vec(), vec![41_u8, 0, 0, 0, 2_u8, b'h', b'i']);
//!
//! // `buffer` now contains all the encoded data, and we can decode from it
//! let (number_dec, remaining_buffer) = FixedWidthU32::decode(&buffer)?;
//! let (word_dec, remaining_buffer) = String::decode(remaining_buffer)?;
//! assert!(remaining_buffer.is_empty());
//! assert_eq!(number_dec, number);
//! assert_eq!(word_dec, word);
//! # Ok::<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>>(())
//! ```
//!
//! ### Implementing CompactEncoding for custom types
//!
//! Here we demonstrate how to implement [`CompactEncoding`] for a custom struct.
//! ```
//! use compact_encoding::{
//!     map_decode, map_encode, sum_encoded_size, to_encoded_bytes, CompactEncoding, EncodingError,
//! };
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, PartialEq)]
//! struct MyStruct {
//!     some_flag: bool,
//!     values: Option<Vec<[u8; 32]>>,
//!     other: String,
//!     stuff: u64,
//! }
//!
//! impl CompactEncoding for MyStruct {
//!     fn encoded_size(&self) -> Result<usize, EncodingError> {
//!         Ok(1 /* flags */ + {
//!              /* handle option values */
//!             if let Some(values) = &self.values  {
//!                 values.encoded_size()?
//!             } else {
//!                 0
//!             }
//!         } + sum_encoded_size!(&self.other, &self.stuff))
//!     }
//!
//!     fn encode<'a>(&self, buffer: &'a mut [u8]) -> Result<&'a mut [u8], EncodingError> {
//!         let mut flags: u8 = 0;
//!         if self.some_flag {
//!             flags |= 1;
//!         }
//!         if self.values.is_some() {
//!             flags |= 2;
//!         }
//!         let mut rest = flags.encode(buffer)?;
//!         if let Some(values) = &self.values {
//!             rest = values.encode(rest)?;
//!         }

//!     }
//!

//!             (Some(vec), rest)
//!         } else {
//!             (None, rest)
//!         };
//!         let ((other, stuff), rest) = map_decode!(rest, [String, u64]);
//!         Ok((
//!             Self {

//!
//! // Encode `foo` and `bar` to a buffer
