Crate rut

Rut is a small UTF-8 decoding library for applications that need to decode individual characters.
It provides a bytewise decoder, and functions for decoding byte slices.

It is completely no_std and should provide good performance.^{[citation needed]}

Conformance

Rut is fully conformant to the specifications and restrictions of the Unicode standard.
Additionally, it follows W3C’s standard for UTF-8 decoding with regards to error signalling.

Testing

Some tests are in place, however it is not comprehensive yet. However, Rut has been pretty thoroughly fuzzed on random input and passes this stress test for UTF-8 decoders.

As Seen on TV!

Rut began life, and is still used in, Termiku, a terminal emulator written in Rust.

Structs

• Decode
  An iterator that decodes characters from a byte slice.
• Decoder
  A bytewise UTF-8 decoder.

Enums

• DecoderResult
  Result type for the Decoder::decode_byte method.
• Error
  The error type returned by all decoding methods.

Functions

• decode
  Creates an iterator for decoding characters from a byte slice.
• decode_one
  Decodes one character from a byte slice, returning a Result and the remainder of the slice.
