IPLD DAG-PB codec
=================

[![Documentation](https://docs.rs/ipld-dagpb/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/ipld-dagpb)

This is an implementation of the [IPLD] [DAG-PB] codec. It can be use in conjunction with [ipld-core].

The code is based on [libipld-pb] and was imported with its full history.

DAG-PB is a special IPLD codec in the sense, that it does *not* implement the full [IPLD Data Model]. Therefore it cannot be used easily for structured data (as opposed to the [Serde] based codecs [serde_ipld_dagcbor] and [serde_ipld_dagjson]). It's only possible to encode and decode the data into/from an IPLD object of a [specific shape].
