//! A declarative I/O serialization library.
//!
//! `declio` provides a pair of traits, [`Encode`] and [`Decode`], that facilitate bidirectional
//! conversions between binary data streams (the `std::io` traits) and arbitrary data types.
//!
//! These traits are implemented for many of the types in `std`; primitives can be encoded and
//! decoded as their big- or little-endian binary representations, and collections and other
//! container types encode and decode the data they contain.
//!
//! This crate also provides a pair of derive macros, via the default feature `derive`, that can
//! implement `Encode` and `Decode` for arbitrary compound data types. By default it will encode
//! and decode all of its fields in order, but it is highly configurable, intended to target the
//! many different patterns found in binary formats.
//!
//! Inspiration for this crate largely comes from [`deku`], but incorporating some changes based on
//! my own opinions and preferences. For example, `declio` uses byte-wise data streams from
//! `std::io` instead of the bit-wise `BitVec`s used by `deku`.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Let's start with a simple example - encoding a single integer into a byte buffer:
//!
//! ```
//! use declio::Encode;
//! use declio::ctx::Endian;
//!
//! let mut buf: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
//! u32::encode(&0xdeadbeef, Endian::Big, &mut buf)
//!     .expect("encode failed");
//!
//! assert_eq!(buf, [0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef]);
//! ```
//!
//! In this example, [`Endian::Big`] is a "context" value. `declio` provides these as an easy way to
//! configure or alter an implementation of `Encode` or `Decode` at runtime, instead of using
//! wrapper types or helper functions. In this case, it tells the implementation of `Encode` for
//! `u32` to encode the bytes in big-endian order. It can instead be set to [`Endian::Little`] to
//! reverse the byte order, and in general, [`Endian`] can be passed to any of the integer and
//! floating-point primitive types for similar effects.
//!
//! Context can also be used to abstract some fields that are necessary to encode and decode some
//! types. For example, containers with variable length like `Vec` accept a [`Len`] context value
//! during decoding, which tells the `Decode` implementation how many values it should decode.
//! This can be a compile-time constant like `Len(1024)`, or it can be created from another value
//! at runtime, like this:
//!
//! ```
//! use declio::Decode;
//! use declio::ctx::Len;
//!
//! let mut bytes = &[
//!     // len
//!     0x00, 0x02,
//!
//!     // words[0]
//!     0xde, 0xad,
//!
//!     // words[1]
//!     0xbe, 0xef,
//! ][..];
//!
//! let len = u16::decode((), &mut bytes)
//!     .expect("decode len failed");
//!
//! let words: Vec<u16> = Vec::decode(Len(len as usize), &mut bytes)
//!     .expect("decode bytes failed");
//!
//! assert!(bytes.is_empty()); // did we consume the whole buffer?
//! assert_eq!(words, [0xdead, 0xbeef]);
//! ```
//!
//! The reason for this is that the `Decode` implementation for `Vec` does not know how to read the
//! length value. It doesn't know what integer size or byte order the binary format uses to encode
//! the length; it doesn't even know if the length is encoded at all! It might be some fixed length
//! defined as part of the format.
//!
//! Also note that we are decoding integers in this example, but I've omitted the `Endian` context,
//! instead passing `()` to `u16::decode`.  In the case of `u16` and other primitives, providing
//! `()` as context defaults to `Endian::Big`.
//!
//! `Vec::decode` can also accept an additional context value to pass to the element decoder, using
//! a 2-tuple like `(Len(len as usize), Endian::Big)`. However, in this example, only a `Len` is
//! passed, which is also valid and will pass `()` as context to the element decoder.
//!
//! ## Deriving
//!
//! Here is an example which makes use of derive macros to encode and decode a
//! user-defined data type. This is not a complete demonstration of the features of the derive
//! macros; for a more complete reference, see the [`derive`] module docs.
//!
//! ```
//! use declio::{Encode, Decode};
//! use declio::ctx::Endian;
//! use std::convert::TryInto;
//!
//! #[derive(Debug, PartialEq, Encode, Decode)]
//! struct WithLength {
//!     // Context can be passed to the field decoder with a `ctx` attribute.
//!     #[declio(ctx = "Endian::Little")]
//!     len: u16,
//!
//!     // Context may be different for encode and decode,
//!     // though they should generally be as symmetric as possible.
//!     // For example, `Vec` doesn't accept a `Len` when encoding.
//!     //
//!     // Fields declared before this one can be accessed by name
//!     // (or by `field_0`, `field_1`, etc for tuple structs):
//!     #[declio(ctx(encode = "Endian::Little", decode = "(len.try_into()?, Endian::Little)"))]
//!     bytes: Vec<u8>,
//! }
//!
//! let bytes: Vec<u8> = vec![0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef];
//!
//! let with_length = WithLength {
//!     len: bytes.len().try_into().expect("length out of range"),
//!     bytes,
//! };
//!
//! let mut encoded: Vec<u8> = Vec::new();
//! with_length.encode((), &mut encoded)
//!     .expect("encode failed");
//! assert_eq!(encoded, [0x04, 0x00, 0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef]);
//!
//! let mut decode_reader: &[u8] = encoded.as_slice();
//! let decoded = WithLength::decode((), &mut decode_reader)
//!     .expect("decode failed");
//!
//! assert!(decode_reader.is_empty());
//! assert_eq!(decoded, with_length);
//! ```
