gix_object/
lib.rs

1//! This crate provides types for [read-only git objects][crate::ObjectRef] backed by bytes provided in git's serialization format
2//! as well as [mutable versions][Object] of these. Both types of objects can be encoded.
3//!
4//! ## Decode Borrowed Objects
5//!
6//! ```
7//! let object = gix_object::ObjectRef::from_loose(b"blob 5\0hello", gix_hash::Kind::Sha1).unwrap();
8//! let blob = object.as_blob().unwrap();
9//!
10//! assert_eq!(blob.data, b"hello");
11//! assert_eq!(object.kind(), gix_object::Kind::Blob);
12//! ```
13//!
14//! ## Mutate And Encode Owned Objects
15//!
16//! ```
17//! use gix_object::WriteTo;
18//!
19//! let object = gix_object::ObjectRef::from_loose(b"blob 5\0hello", gix_hash::Kind::Sha1)
20//!     .unwrap()
21//!     .into_owned()
22//!     .unwrap();
23//! let mut blob = object.into_blob();
24//! blob.data.extend_from_slice(b" world");
25//!
26//! let mut out = Vec::new();
27//! blob.write_to(&mut out).unwrap();
28//! assert_eq!(out, b"hello world");
29//! assert_eq!(blob.loose_header().as_slice(), b"blob 11\0");
30//! ```
