Azalea NBT

A fast NBT serializer and deserializer.

• Gzip and Zlib compression
• All data is owned for ease-of-use
• Serde support with the serde feature.

Examples

``` use azalea_nbt::{Nbt, NbtCompound}; use std::io::Cursor;

let buf = includebytes!("../tests/helloworld.nbt"); let tag = Nbt::read(&mut Cursor::new(&buf[..])).unwrap(); asserteq!( tag, Nbt::Compound(NbtCompound::fromiter(vec![( "hello world".into(), Nbt::Compound(NbtCompound::from_iter(vec![( "name".into(), Nbt::String("Bananrama".into()), )])) )])) ); ```

Benchmarks

At the time of writing, Azalea NBT is the fastest NBT decoder (approximately twice as fast as Graphite NBT, the second fastest) and on-par with the fastest NBT encoders (sometimes the fastest, depending on the data).

You can run the benchmarks to compare against other NBT libraries with cargo bench --bench compare and the normal benchmarks with cargo bench --bench nbt.

Note: For best performance, use RUSTFLAGS='-C target-cpu=native'.
