Crate reliakit_codec 

Deterministic canonical binary encoding and decoding.

reliakit-codec provides small traits and strict primitive implementations for one canonical binary representation per supported type. It is intended for simple protocols, fixtures, cache keys, and reliability-oriented library boundaries where handwritten implementations are preferable to schema or derive machinery.

Example

use reliakit_codec::{decode_from_slice_exact, encode_to_vec, CanonicalDecode, CanonicalEncode};

#[derive(Debug, PartialEq)]
struct Point {
    x: u16,
    y: u16,
}

impl CanonicalEncode for Point {
    fn encode<W: reliakit_codec::EncodeSink + ?Sized>(
        &self,
        writer: &mut W,
    ) -> Result<(), reliakit_codec::CodecError> {
        self.x.encode(writer)?;
        self.y.encode(writer)
    }
}

impl CanonicalDecode for Point {
    fn decode<R: reliakit_codec::DecodeSource + ?Sized>(
        reader: &mut R,
    ) -> Result<Self, reliakit_codec::CodecError> {
        Ok(Self {
            x: u16::decode(reader)?,
            y: u16::decode(reader)?,
        })
    }
}

let encoded = encode_to_vec(&Point { x: 10, y: 20 })?;
assert_eq!(encoded, [10, 0, 20, 0]);
assert_eq!(decode_from_slice_exact::<Point>(&encoded)?, Point { x: 10, y: 20 });
