ct-codecs 1.1.4

//! # CT-Codecs
//!
//! A Rust implementation of constant-time Base64 and Hexadecimal codecs,
//! reimplemented from libsodium and libhydrogen.
//!
//! ## Features
//!
//! - **Constant-time implementation** for cryptographic applications where timing attacks are a concern
//! - **Strict validation** ensuring Base64 strings are not malleable
//! - **Multiple variants** of Base64: standard, URL-safe, with and without padding
//! - **Character filtering** for ignoring specific characters during decoding (like whitespace)
//! - **Zero dependencies** and **`no_std` compatible**
//! - **Memory safety** with `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]`
//!
//! ## Usage Examples
//!
//! ### Base64 Encoding
//!
//! ```
//! use ct_codecs::{Base64, Encoder};
//!
//! let data = b"Hello, world!";
//! # let result = 
//! let encoded = Base64::encode_to_string(data)?;
//! assert_eq!(encoded, "SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ==");
//! # Ok::<(), ct_codecs::Error>(())
//! ```
//!
//! ### Base64 Decoding
//!
//! ```
//! use ct_codecs::{Base64, Decoder};
//!
//! let encoded = "SGVsbG8sIHdvcmxkIQ==";
//! # let result = 
//! let decoded = Base64::decode_to_vec(encoded, None)?;
//! assert_eq!(decoded, b"Hello, world!");
//! # Ok::<(), ct_codecs::Error>(())
//! ```
//!
//! ### Hexadecimal Encoding/Decoding
//!
//! ```
//! use ct_codecs::{Hex, Encoder, Decoder};
//!
//! let data = b"Hello, world!";
//! # let result = 
//! let encoded = Hex::encode_to_string(data)?;
//! let decoded = Hex::decode_to_vec(&encoded, None)?;
//! assert_eq!(decoded, data);
//! # Ok::<(), ct_codecs::Error>(())
//! ```
//!
//! ### No-std Usage with Pre-allocated Buffers
//!
//! ```
//! use ct_codecs::{Base64, Encoder, Decoder};
//!
//! let data = b"Hello, world!";
//! # let result = 
//! let mut encoded_buf = [0u8; 20]; // Must be large enough
//! let encoded = Base64::encode(&mut encoded_buf, data)?;
//!
//! let mut decoded_buf = [0u8; 13]; // Must be large enough
//! let decoded = Base64::decode(&mut decoded_buf, encoded, None)?;
//! assert_eq!(decoded, data);
//! # Ok::<(), ct_codecs::Error>(())
//! ```
