<p>While the JSON encoding is 174 bytes long the CBOR representation is only 141 bytes long.
|
|||
|
|
This is 19% shorter! Sometimes compression will even better, but never CBOR will be longer
|
|||
|
|
than the corresponding JSON. More importantly CBOR supports binary data, custom data tyes,
|
|||
|
|
annotations for dates, times and expected encoding and is faster to serialize and deserialize.
|
|||
|
|
It can even be used on embedded devices.</p>

<h1 id="type-based-serialization-and-deserialization" class="section-header"><a href="#type-based-serialization-and-deserialization">Type-based Serialization and Deserialization</a></h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Serde provides a mechanism for low boilerplate serialization & deserialization of values to and
|
|||
|
|
from CBOR via the serialization API. To be able to serialize a piece of data, it must implement
|
|||
|
|
the <code>serde::Serialize</code> trait. To be able to deserialize a piece of data, it must implement the
|
|||
|
|
<code>serde::Deserialize</code> trait. Serde provides an annotation to automatically generate the
|
|||
|
|
code for these traits: <code>#[derive(Serialize, Deserialize)]</code>.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The CBOR API also provides an enum <code>serde_cbor::Value</code>.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<h1 id="packed-encoding" class="section-header"><a href="#packed-encoding">Packed Encoding</a></h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>When serializing structs or enums in CBOR the keys or enum variant names will be serialized
|
|||
|
|
as string keys to a map. Esspecially in embedded environments this can increase the file
|
|||
|
|
size too much. In packed encoding the keys and variants will be serialized as variable sized
|
|||
|
|
integers. The first 24 entries in any struct consume only a single byte!
|
|||
|
|
To serialize a document in packed encoding use <code>ser::to_(vec|writer)_packed</code>, deserialization
|
|||
|
|
works without any changes.</p>

|||

|
<h1 id="self-describing-documents" class="section-header"><a href="#self-describing-documents">Self describing documents</a></h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In some contexts different formats are used but there is no way to declare the format used
|
|||
|
|
out of band. For this reason CBOR has a magic number that may be added before any document.
|
|||
|
|
The <em><code>_sd</code> (for <em>s</em>elf</em>d*escribe) append the magic number before documents.</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
|
|||
|
|
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
|
|||
|
|
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
|
|||
|
|
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
|
|||
|
|
and <code>const</code>.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
<p>
|
|||
|
|
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
|
|||
|
|
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
|
|||
|
|
