Trait PacketSource 

pub trait PacketSource: Send {
    // Required methods
    fn streams(&self) -> &[StreamInfo];
    fn next_packet(&mut self) -> Result<Packet>;

    // Provided methods
    fn metadata(&self) -> &[(String, String)] { ... }
    fn duration_micros(&self) -> Option<i64> { ... }
}

A producer of already-demuxed Packets.

Used by transport-layer protocols that perform demux themselves (RTMP, RTSP, …). The pipeline executor consumes packets directly, skipping the container-demux stage that bytes-shape sources go through.

Required Methods

fn streams(&self) -> &[StreamInfo]

Streams advertised by this source. Stable across the lifetime of the source.

fn next_packet(&mut self) -> Result<Packet>

Read the next packet from any stream. Returns Error::Eof at end of stream.

Provided Methods

fn metadata(&self) -> &[(String, String)]

Source-level metadata as ordered (key, value) pairs. Default is empty.

fn duration_micros(&self) -> Option<i64>

Source-level duration in microseconds, if known. Default is None. Live sources (RTMP push, etc.) typically return None.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
