👎Deprecated since 0.2.2: The Encoder trait has been deprecated in favor of multiple encoder traits. Please use ByteEncoder, StrEncoder, or BaseEncoder depending on your needs. The Encoder trait will be removed in 1.0.0.

A type that can handle an Encodable type

An encoder is responsible for writing bytes into a buffer or other destination. Encoders are used by encodables to write their data. Thus, encoders must uphold the same properties as encodables.

Required Associated Types

type Error

👎Deprecated since 0.2.2: The Encoder trait has been deprecated in favor of multiple encoder traits. Please use ByteEncoder, StrEncoder, or BaseEncoder depending on your needs. The Encoder trait will be removed in 1.0.0.

The error type that can be returned when encoding a value.

For example, some encoders may return an error if the underlying buffer is full

Required Methods

fn put_slice(&mut self, slice: &[u8]) -> Result<(), Self::Error>

👎Deprecated since 0.2.2: The Encoder trait has been deprecated in favor of multiple encoder traits. Please use ByteEncoder, StrEncoder, or BaseEncoder depending on your needs. The Encoder trait will be removed in 1.0.0.

Copies a slice of bytes into the encoder

Errors

Implementations of this method should return an error if the underlying encoder fails to write the slice of bytes.

fn put_byte(&mut self, byte: u8) -> Result<(), Self::Error>

👎Deprecated since 0.2.2: The Encoder trait has been deprecated in favor of multiple encoder traits. Please use ByteEncoder, StrEncoder, or BaseEncoder depending on your needs. The Encoder trait will be removed in 1.0.0.

Appends a single byte into the encoder, if possible.

Errors

Implementations of this method should return an error if the underlying encoder fails to write the byte.
