Rust Astro Notation

A library for transcoding between hexadecimal strings in Astro Notation Format and Native Rust data types.

Usage

In your Cargo.toml:

```

[dependencies] astro-notation = "1.2.0"

```

In your Rust file:

```

use astro_notation::{encode, decode};

```

Features

• Represent boolean, strings, integers, bytes, lists & hashmap as hexadecimal strings.
• Transcode between Astro Notation Format and Native Rust data types.

Support

| Type | Support | |---|---| | str | ✅ | | u8 | ✅ | | u16 | ✅ | | u32 | ✅ | | u64 | ✅ | | u128 | ✅ | | i8 | 🚧 | | i16 | 🚧 | | i32 | 🚧 | | i64 | 🚧 | | i128 | 🚧 | | f32 | 🚧 | | f64 | 🚧 | | bool | ✅ | | list | ✅ | | bytes | ✅ |

API

Boolean

```

let astro_bool: String = encode::bool(&true);

let decodedbool: bool = decode::asbool(&astro_bool);

```

String

```

let str: String = "hello".to_string();

let astro_str: String = encode::str(&int);

let decodedstr: String = decode::asu8(&astro_str);

```

Unsigned Integers

```

let astrou8: String = encode::u8(&8u8);

let decodedu8: u8 = decode::asu8(&astro_u8);

```

Bytes

```

let bytes: Vec = vec![1,2,3];

let astro_bytes: String = encode::bytes(&bytes);

let decodedbytes: Vec = decode::asbytes(&astro_bytes);

```

List

```

let list: Vec = vec![ "one".tostring(), "two".tostring(), "three".to_string() ];

let astro_list: String = encode::list(&list);

let decodedlist: Vec = decode::aslist(&astro_list);

```

HashMap

```

let hmap: HashMap = HashMap::from([ ("key1".tostring(), "val1".tostring()), ("key2".tostring(), "val2".tostring()), ("key3".tostring(), "val3".tostring()), ("key4".tostring(), "val4".tostring()) ]);

let astro_hmap: String = encode::hashmap(&hmap);

let decodedhmap: HashMap = decode::ashashmap(&astro_hmap);

```
