bstruct 0.6.1
bstruct
Simple and efficient binary (de)serialization using type annotations.
Supports easy fallback to Python's built-in struct library for maximum performance.
Getting Started
pip install bstruct
from typing import Annotated
from dataclasses import dataclass
import bstruct
@dataclass
class Measurement:
timestamp: bstruct.u32 # shorthand for: Annotated[int, bstruct.Encodings.u32]
values: Annotated[list[bstruct.u8], bstruct.Array(3)]
MeasurementEncoding = bstruct.derive(Measurement)
measurement = Measurement(
timestamp=1672764049,
values=[1, 2, 3],
)
encoded = MeasurementEncoding.encode(measurement)
decoded = MeasurementEncoding.decode(encoded)
assert decoded == measurement
