weakauras-codec-lib-serialize

This library provides routines for deserializing and serializing LuaValues in a way compatible with a Lua library called LibSerialize.

Deserialization example

This is how you can use the library to deserialize strings produced by LibSerialize.

use weakauras_codec_lib_serialize::{DeserializationError, Deserializer};

fn main() -> Result<(), DeserializationError> {
    assert_eq!(
        Deserializer::from_slice(b"\x01\xd2Hello, world!")
            .deserialize_first()?
            .unwrap(),
        "Hello, world!".into()
    );
    Ok(())
}

Serialization example

This is how you can use the library to serialize values in a way compatible with LibSerialize.

use weakauras_codec_lib_serialize::{SerializationError, Serializer};

fn main() -> Result<(), SerializationError> {
    assert_eq!(
        Serializer::serialize_one(&"Hello, world!".into(), None)?,
        b"\x01\xd2Hello, world!"
    );
    Ok(())
}
