Crate eetf

Library for encoding/decoding Erlang External Term Format.

Examples

Decodes an atom:

use std::io::Cursor;
use eetf::{Term, Atom};

let bytes = vec![131, 100, 0, 3, 102, 111, 111];
let term = Term::decode(Cursor::new(&bytes)).unwrap();
assert_eq!(term, Term::from(Atom::from("foo")));

Encodes an atom:

use eetf::{Term, Atom};

let mut buf = Vec::new();
let term = Term::from(Atom::from("foo"));
term.encode(&mut buf).unwrap();
assert_eq!(vec![131, 100, 0, 3, 102, 111, 111], buf);
