Crate scale_encode

scale-encode builds on parity-scale-codec. parity-scale-codec provides an Encode trait which allows types to SCALE encode themselves with no external information. scale-encode provides an EncodeAsType trait which allows types to decide how to encode themselves based on the desired target type.

Re-exports

pub use error::Error;

Modules

error

An error that is emitted whenever some encoding fails.

utils

Some utility types that are useful in order to help implement EncodeAsType.

Traits

EncodeAsType

This trait signals that some static type can possibly be SCALE encoded given some type_id and PortableRegistry which dictates the expected encoding. A [Context] is also passed around, which is used internally to improve error reporting. Implementations should use the [Context::at] method to indicate the current location if they would like it to show up in error output.

Derive Macros

EncodeAsType

The EncodeAsType derive macro can be used to implement EncodeAsType on structs and enums whose fields all implement EncodeAsType.
