msgpack_simple 1.0.2

Simplified, easy to use, pure Rust [MessagePack][msgpack] implementation focused
on handling dynamic data structures.

[Documentation][docs]

Example usage:

```rust
use msgpack_simple::{MsgPack, MapElement, Extension};

let message = MsgPack::Map(vec![
    MapElement {
        key: MsgPack::String(String::from("hello")),
        value: MsgPack::Int(42)
    },
    MapElement {
        key: MsgPack::String(String::from("world")),
        value: MsgPack::Array(vec![
            MsgPack::Boolean(true),
            MsgPack::Nil,
            MsgPack::Binary(vec![0x42, 0xff]),
            MsgPack::Extension(Extension {
                type_id: 2,
                value: vec![0x32, 0x4a, 0x67, 0x11]
            })
        ])
    }
]);

let encoded = message.encode(); // encoded is a Vec<u8>
let decoded = MsgPack::parse(&encoded).unwrap();

println!("{}", decoded);
assert_eq!(message, decoded);
assert!(message.is_map());

let mut map = message.as_map().unwrap(); // map is a Vec<MapElement>
let second_element = map.remove(1);

assert!(second_element.key.is_string());
assert_eq!(second_element.key.as_string().unwrap(), "world".to_string());

assert!(second_element.value.is_array());

let mut array = second_element.value.as_array().unwrap(); // array is a Vec<MsgPack>
let nil = array.remove(1);

assert!(nil.is_nil());
```

This library abstracts MessagePack data into a single [MsgPack enum][msgpack-enum]
which can correspond to any encodable data type and handle nested data
structures dynamically. It's not as performant as static solutions, for that,
[mneumann's rust-msgpack][rust-msgpack] and [3Hren's RMP][rmp] crates are
recommended, but it is able to parse messages without full prior knowledge of
their structure.
