Very simple native rust lib for writing POD5 files. No FFI Woooooooo LET'S GOOOOO
## Limitations
Many!
* ** Uncompressed signal** - I blasted this out in 7 days, so currently we are limited to uncompressed Signal.
* **Writing only** - Again does what I need it to do. I would like to add more features at some point, but for now we are stuck with this.
## Example usage
```rust
fn test() -> arrow::error::Result<()> {
let mut pod5 = Pod5File::new("test_builder.pod5").unwrap();
pod5.push_run_info(dummy_run_info());
pod5.write_run_info_to_ipc();
println!("{:#?}", pod5.run_table.length);
let read = dummy_read_row(None).unwrap();
let read_2 = dummy_read_row(Some("9e81bb6a-8610-4907-b4dd-4ed834fc414d")).unwrap();
pod5.push_read(read);
pod5.push_read(read_2);
pod5.write_reads_to_ipc();
// println!("{:#?}", pod5._signal);
pod5.write_signal_to_ipc();
pod5.write_footer();
Ok(())
}
```
# Changelog
