val length : 'a Encoding.t -> 'a -> int

Compute the expected length of the binary representation of a value

val fixed_length : 'a Encoding.t -> int option

Returns the size of the binary representation that the given encoding might produce, only when the size of the representation does not depends of the value itself.

val fixed_length_exn : 'a Encoding.t -> int

val read : 'a Encoding.t -> Bytes.t -> int -> int -> (int * 'a) option

read enc buf ofs len tries to reconstruct a value from the bytes in buf starting at offset ofs and reading at most len bytes. This function also returns the offset of the first unread bytes in the buf.

type 'ret status =

| Await of Bytes.t -> 'ret status
(*
Partially decoded value.
*)
| Error of read_error
(*
Failure. The stream is garbled and it should be dropped.
*)

Return type for the function read_stream.

val read_stream : 
  ?init:Data_encoding__.Binary_stream.t ->
  'a Encoding.t ->
  'a status

Streamed equivalent of read. This variant cannot be called on variable-size encodings.

val write : 'a Encoding.t -> 'a -> Bytes.t -> int -> int -> int option

write enc v buf ofs len writes the binary representation of v as described by to enc, in buf starting at the offset ofs and writing at most len bytes. The function returns the offset of first unwritten bytes, or returns None in case of failure. In the latter case, some data might have been written on the buffer.

val of_bytes : 'a Encoding.t -> Bytes.t -> 'a option

of_bytes enc buf is equivalent to read enc buf 0 (length buf). The function fails if the buffer is not fully read.

val of_bytes_exn : 'a Encoding.t -> Bytes.t -> 'a

of_bytes_exn enc buf is equivalent to to_bytes, except

raises [Read_error]
instead of returning None in case of error.

val to_bytes : 'a Encoding.t -> 'a -> Bytes.t option

to_bytes enc v is the equivalent of write env buf 0 len where buf is a newly allocated buffer of the expected length len (see length env v).

val to_bytes_exn : 'a Encoding.t -> 'a -> Bytes.t

to_bytes_exn enc v is equivalent to to_bytes enc v, except

raises [Write_error]
instead of returning None in case of error.

val describe : 'a Encoding.t -> Binary_schema.t
