This crate contains an implementation of the CCSDS standard called Space Packet Protocol, which defines a packet header called the CCSDS Primary Header.
CCSDS is a packet definition used in space systems, such as the International Space Station. It is very simple, and expects the user to extend it with additional information in most applications.
This crate will provide only a simple implementation of the primary header. It is intended to be used as a building block for larger definitions or packet processing tools.
The PrimaryHeader struct provided by the crate has the advantage that its in-memory representation matches the CCSDS standard. This way, it can be cast to a from a byte array, sent over a wire, or used to serialize or deserialize CCSDS packets.
To use this crate, add the following to your Cargo.toml
toml
[dependancies]
ccsds_primary_header="0.1.0"
Next add this to you crate:
rust
extern crate ccsds_primary_header;
use ccsds_primary_header::*;
This crate has not been used in production code. There is a comprehensive set of unit test, but until it is used with real CCSDS packets, I do not recommend relying on it.
