Crate serde_bencode

This crate is a Rust library for using the Serde serialization framework with bencode data.

Examples

use serde_derive::{Serialize, Deserialize};

#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize, PartialEq, Eq, Debug)]
struct Product {
    name: String,
    price: u32,
}

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let apple = Product {
        name: "Apple".to_string(),
        price: 130,
    };

    let serialized = serde_bencode::to_string(&apple)?;

    assert_eq!(serialized, "d4:name5:Apple5:pricei130ee".to_string());

    let deserialized: Product = serde_bencode::from_str(&serialized)?;

    assert_eq!(
        deserialized,
        Product {
            name: "Apple".to_string(),
            price: 130,
        }
    );

    Ok(())
}
