This crate contains the traits and primitives used in the Bolt
protocol. The Message and Value enums are of particular importance, and are the primary units of information sent and
consumed by Bolt clients/servers.
The Message enum encapsulates all possible messages that can be sent between client and server.
rust
pub enum Message {
// V1-compatible message types
Init(Init),
Run(Run),
DiscardAll,
PullAll,
AckFailure,
Reset,
Record(Record),
Success(Success),
Failure(Failure),
Ignored,
// V3+-compatible message types
Hello(Hello),
Goodbye,
RunWithMetadata(RunWithMetadata),
Begin(Begin),
Commit,
Rollback,
}
See the documentation for more details.
The Value enum encapsulates all possible values that can be stored in data from each kind of Message.
Structures like List and Map allow Values to be nested with arbitrary complexity.
```rust
pub enum Value {
// V1-compatible value types
Boolean(bool),
Integer(Integer),
Float(f64),
Bytes(ByteArray), // Added with Neo4j 3.2, no mention of it in the Bolt v1 docs!
List(List),
Map(Map),
Null,
String(std::string::String),
Node(Node),
Relationship(Relationship),
Path(Path),
UnboundRelationship(UnboundRelationship),
// V2+-compatible value types
Date(Date), // A date without a time zone, a.k.a. LocalDate
Time(Time), // A time with a UTC offset, a.k.a. OffsetTime
DateTimeOffset(DateTimeOffset), // A date-time with a UTC offset, a.k.a. OffsetDateTime
DateTimeZoned(DateTimeZoned), // A date-time with a time zone ID, a.k.a. ZonedDateTime
LocalTime(LocalTime), // A time without a time zone
LocalDateTime(LocalDateTime), // A date-time without a time zone
Duration(Duration),
Point2D(Point2D),
Point3D(Point3D),
}

You should rarely ever have to construct variants directly (with the exception ofValue::Null). Instead, you should
typically useValue::from` for the type you wish to convert.
See the documentation for more details.
The Serialize and Deserialize traits provide interfaces for converting Message and Value types to and from
streams of bytes, to be consumed by a compatible Bolt server.
