tl-proto 0.3.8

tl-proto  

A collection of traits for working with TL serialization/deserialization.

Example

/* my_proto.tl */

int ? = Int;
long ? = Long;
string ? = String;
bytes data:string = Bytes;

int256 8*[ int ] = Int256;

pub.ed25519 key:int256 = PublicKey;
pub.aes key:int256 = PublicKey;
pub.overlay name:bytes = PublicKey;

adnl.address.udp ip:int port:int = adnl.Address;

tonNode.blockId workchain:int shard:long seqno:int = tonNode.BlockId;

--- functions ---

liteServer.lookupBlock mode:# id:tonNode.blockId lt:mode.1?long utime:mode.2?int = liteServer.BlockHeader;

NOTE: TL scheme is parsed by tl-scheme crate at compile time. It doesn't cover full TL grammer, but it's enough for most of the cases.
