Overview

Read and write NBT data.

Named Binary Tag (NBT) is a structured binary format used throughout Minecraft for a multitude of things. This crate mainly focuses on Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, and supports the little endian and network little endian encoding. Big endian, which is more commonly used in Minecraft: Java Edition, is also supported, however.

Feature flags

• serde - Allows rust types to be serialized and deserialized into NBT using serde.

Examples

NBT data can be constructed and written as follows:

```rust use std::collections::HashMap; use bytes::BytesMut; use zurinbt::encoding::LittleEndian; use zurinbt::NBTTag;

let mut nbt = HashMap::new(); nbt.insert("name".tostring(), NBTTag::String("Zuri".tostring().into())); nbt.insert("age".to_string(), NBTTag::Int(18.into()));

let mut buf = BytesMut::new(); NBTTag::Compound(nbt.into()).write(&mut buf, &mut LittleEndian) .expect("Something went wrong while writing nbt"); ```

Reading NBT data can be done as follows:

```rust use bytes::Bytes; use zurinbt::encoding::LittleEndian; use zurinbt::NBTTag;

let mut buf = Bytes::from([ 0x08, 0x00, 0x00, 0x0c, 0x00, 0x48, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0x20, 0x57, 0x6f, 0x72, 0x6c, 0x64, 0x21, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, ].as_ref());

let value = NBTTag::read(&mut buf, &mut LittleEndian) .expect("Something went wrong while reading nbt"); asserteq!(value, NBTTag::String("Hello World!".tostring().into())); ```
