MsgPuck Usage example:

* // Encode
* char buf[1024];
* char *w = buf;
* w = mp_encode_array(w, 4)
* w = mp_encode_uint(w, 10);
* w = mp_encode_str(w, "hello world", strlen("hello world"));
* w = mp_encode_bool(w, true);
* w = mp_encode_double(w, 3.1415);

* double dval;
*
* const char *r = buf;
*
* size = mp_decode_array(&r);
* // size is 4
*
* ival = mp_decode_uint(&r);
* // ival is 10;
*
* sval = mp_decode_str(&r, &sval_len);
* // sval is "hello world", sval_len is strlen("hello world")
*
* bval = mp_decode_bool(&r);
* // bval is true
*
* dval = mp_decode_double(&r);
* // dval is 3.1415
*
* assert(r == w);
* 

Note:

Supported compilers. The implementation requires a C99+ or C++03+ compatible compiler.

Inline functions. The implementation is compatible with both C99 and GNU inline functions. Please define MP_SOURCE 1 before #include <msgpuck.h> in a single compilation unit. This module will be used to store non-inlined versions of functions and global tables.

MP_PROTO char* mp_encode_str (char *data, const char *str, uint32_tlen)

Encode a string of length len. The function is equivalent to mp_encode_strl() + memcpy.

See Also:

mp_encode_strl

MP_PROTO char* mp_encode_strl (char *data, uint32_tlen)

Encode a string header of length len. The function encodes MsgPack header (only header) for a string of length len. You should append actual string data to the buffer manually after encoding the header (exactly len bytes without trailing '\0').

This approach is very useful for cases when the total length of the string is known in advance, but the string data is not stored in a single continuous buffer (e.g. network packets).

It is your responsibility to ensure that data has enough space. Usage example:

* char buffer[1024];
* char *b = buffer;
* b = mp_encode_strl(b, hdr.total_len);
* char *s = b;
* memcpy(b, pkt1.data, pkt1.len)
* b += pkt1.len;
* // get next packet
* memcpy(b, pkt2.data, pkt2.len)
* b += pkt2.len;
* // get next packet
* memcpy(b, pkt1.data, pkt3.len)
* b += pkt3.len;
*
* // Check that all data was received
* assert(hdr.total_len == (uint32_t) (b - s))
* 

 Hint: you can dynamically reallocate the buffer during the process. 

Parameters:

data - a buffer
len - a string length

Returns:

data + mp_sizeof_strl(len)

See Also:

mp_sizeof_strl()

MP_PROTO char* mp_encode_uint (char *data, uint64_tnum)

MP_PROTO size_t mp_format (char *data, size_tdata_size, const char *format, ...)

Encode a sequence of values according to format string. Example: mp_format(buf, sz, '[%d {%d%s%d%s}]', 42, 0, 'false', 1, 'true'); to get a msgpack array of two items: number 42 and map (0->'false, 2->'true") Does not write items that don't fit to data_size argument.

Parameters:

data - a buffer
data_size - a buffer size
format - zero-end string, containing structure of resulting msgpack and types of next arguments. Format can contain '[' and ']' pairs, defining arrays, '{' and '}' pairs, defining maps, and format specifiers, described below: d, i - int u - unsigned int ld, li - long lu - unsigned long lld, lli - long long llu - unsigned long long hd, hi - short hu - unsigned short hhd, hhi - char (as number) hhu - unsigned char (as number) f - float lf - double b - bool s - zero-end string %.*s - string with specified length %% is ignored smthelse assert and undefined behaviour NIL - a nil value all other symbols are ignored.

Calculate exact buffer size needed to store an integer num. Maximum return value is 9. For performance reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function. Example usage:

* char **data = ...;
* char *end = *data;
* my_buffer_ensure(mp_sizeof_uint(x), &end);
* // my_buffer_ensure(9, &end);
* mp_encode_uint(buffer, x);
* 

 

Parameters:

num - a number

Returns:

buffer size in bytes (max is 9)

MP_PROTO int mp_snprint (char *buf, intsize, const char *data)

format MsgPack data to buf using JSON-like format.

See Also:

mp_fprint()

Parameters:

buf - buffer to use
size - buffer size. This function write at most size bytes (including the terminating null byte ('\0').
data - pointer to buffer containing msgpack object

Return values:

<size - the number of characters printed (excluding the null byte)
>=size - the number of characters (excluding the null byte), which would have been written to the final string if enough space had been available.
-1 - error

MP_PROTO enum mp_type mp_typeof (const charc)

Determine MsgPack type by a first byte c of encoded data. Example usage:

* assert(MP_ARRAY == mp_typeof(0x90));
* 

Parameters:

c - a first byte of encoded data

Returns:

MsgPack type

MP_PROTO size_t mp_vformat (char *data, size_tdata_size, const char *format, va_listargs)
