pbuf

Reads/Writes to anything that implements Read/Write to/from protobuf...

Examples assume Msg is your protobuf and msg.rs is where it lives, see rust-protobuf on how to generate .rs from .proto files.

Add to Cargo.toml

pbuf = "0.3.2"

Read example

``` extern crate pbuf; extern crate protobuf;

use std::io::prelude::*; use std::io::{BufReader, self}; use std::fs::File;

mod msg; use msg::Msg;

use pbuf::read_pbuf;

let mut reader = Box::new(BufReader::new(io::stdin())); // To read from file // let mut reader = Box::new(BufReader::new(File::open (&).unwrap()))

// Reads entire buffer and fill let mut msgs: Vec = read_pbuf(&mut reader); ```

Write example

``` extern crate pbuf; extern crate protobuf;

use std::io::prelude::*; use std::io::{BufWriter, self}; use std::fs::File;

mod msg; use msg::Msg;

use pbuf::write_pbuf;

let mut writer = Box::new(BufWriter::new(io::stdout())); // To write to file // let mut writer = Box::new(BufWriter::new(File::create(&).unwrap()))

for msg in msgs.iter() { write_pbuf(msg, &mut writer); } ```
