Struct ssz::SszDecoder

pub struct SszDecoder<'a> { /* fields omitted */ }

Decodes some slices of SSZ into object instances. Should be instantiated using SszDecoderBuilder.

Example

use ssz_derive::{Encode, Decode};
use ssz::{Decode, Encode, SszDecoder, SszDecoderBuilder};

#[derive(PartialEq, Debug, Encode, Decode)]
struct Foo {
    a: u64,
    b: Vec<u16>,
}

fn main() {
    let foo = Foo {
        a: 42,
        b: vec![1, 3, 3, 7]
    };

    let bytes = foo.as_ssz_bytes();

    let mut builder = SszDecoderBuilder::new(&bytes);

    builder.register_type::<u64>().unwrap();
    builder.register_type::<Vec<u16>>().unwrap();

    let mut decoder = builder.build().unwrap();

    let decoded_foo = Foo {
        a: decoder.decode_next().unwrap(),
        b: decoder.decode_next().unwrap(),
    };

    assert_eq!(foo, decoded_foo);
}

Methods

impl<'a> SszDecoder<'a>

pub fn decode_next<T: Decode>(&mut self) -> Result<T, DecodeError>

Decodes the next item.

Panics

Panics when attempting to decode more items than actually exist.
