codec.rs

1//! The codec primitives: the [`Encode`] / [`Decode`] behaviour traits, the
2//! concrete in-memory [`Encoder`] / [`Decoder`] types, the [`Config`] struct,
3//! and the Tier-1 [`encode`] / [`decode`] free functions.
4//!
5//! ## Layering
6//!
7//! - **Tier 1** — the [`encode`] / [`decode`] free functions. One line each
8//!   direction, no setup, no type parameters beyond the target type.
9//! - **Tier 2** — concrete encoder / decoder types. The in-memory pair
10//!   ([`Encoder`] + [`Decoder`]) lives in this module; the streaming pair
11//!   ([`crate::IoEncoder`] + [`crate::IoDecoder`]) lives in
12//!   [`crate::io`] and is `std`-gated. All four implement the [`Encode`] /
13//!   [`Decode`] behaviour traits, so [`Serialize`] / [`Deserialize`] impls
14//!   work through any of them.
15//! - **Tier 3** — implementing the [`Serialize`] / [`Deserialize`] traits
16//!   directly on your own types. Generic over `E: Encode` / `D: Decode`, so
17//!   one impl works for both in-memory and streaming codecs.
18//!
19//! ## Safety contract for decoders
20//!
21//! Every method on [`Decode`] is total: it either returns the requested
22//! value (advancing the read cursor) or returns a [`SerialError`]. It never
23//! panics, never reads past the input, and never allocates more memory than
24//! the [`Config::max_alloc`] cap permits.

33/// Configuration for a decode session.
34///
35/// At construction time the codec validates the configuration; an invalid
36/// config (currently: `max_alloc == 0`) is rejected before any bytes are read.
37/// Validation happens once, in [`Decoder::with_config`] /
38/// [`crate::IoDecoder::with_config`], not on every operation.
39///
40/// `Config` is `#[non_exhaustive]` so the project can add knobs in a MINOR
41/// release without breaking downstream code. Build instances with
42/// [`Config::new`] / [`Config::with_max_alloc`] or via [`Default`].
43///

46/// ```
47/// use pack_io::{Config, Decoder};
48///
49/// // Refuse to allocate more than 16 KiB for any single length-prefixed
50/// // value (a `String`, a `Vec<u8>`, a collection element count, …).
51/// // Hostile producers that send multi-gigabyte length prefixes fail fast.
52/// let cfg = Config::new().with_max_alloc(16 * 1024);
53/// let dec = Decoder::with_config(&[], cfg).expect("non-zero cap");
54/// drop(dec);
