# static-bytes

The aim of this crate is to improve user experience when working with static bytes.
Look at this pseudo code example to understand problem with `&mut [u8]` and `bytes::buf::BufMut`
```compile_fail
let mut fixed_storage = [u8; 16];
let mut slice = fixed_storage[..];
let len_before = slice.len();
// declaration fn encode(&self, buf: &mut dyn BufMut);
frame.encode(&mut slice);
let len = len_before - slice.len();
let filled_bytes = fixed_storage[..len];
```
There are two problems with code above:
- it will panic if encode want to use more than 16 bytes!
- it is boilerplate

You can resolve both with `SafeBytesSlice`. For example usage see
[docs](https://docs.rs/static-bytes/0.2/static_bytes/struct.SafeBytesSlice.html).
