hexplay 0.1.4

Format u8 slices like an hex editor
Documentation

Implements rust's Display trait to format a u8 slice as many hex editors do. This might be useful for dumping a binary blob for debugging purposes.

The API documentation can be found here: https://docs.rs/crate/hexplay/.

Example

Here's an example that prints a hex view of a slice of some vector's data:

extern crate hexplay;

use hexplay::HexViewBuilder;

fn main() {
    // The buffer we want to display
    let data : Vec<u8> = (0u8..200u8).collect();

    // Build a new HexView using the provider builder
    let view = HexViewBuilder::new(&data[40..72])
        .address_offset(40)
        .row_width(16)
        .finish();

    println!("{}", view);
}

This will result in the following output:

00000020                          28 29 2A 2B 2C 2D 2E 2F  |         ()*+,-./ |
00000030  30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 3A 3B 3C 3D 3E 3F  | 0123456789:;<=>? |
00000040  40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47                          | @ABCDEFG         |
