Usage

Encoding Examples

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
new CborEncoder(baos).encode(new CborBuilder()
    .add("text")                // add string
    .add(1234)                  // add integer
    .add(new byte[] { 0x10 })   // add byte array
    .addArray()                 // add array
        .add(1)
        .add("text")
        .end()
    .build());
byte[] encodedBytes = baos.toByteArray();
byte[] encodedBytes = CborEncoder.encodeToBytes(
    new CborBuilder().add("text").add(1234).build());
byte[] encodedBytes = new UnsignedInteger(1234).encodeToBytes();

Decoding Example

ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(encodedBytes);
List<DataItem> dataItems = new CborDecoder(bais).decode();
for(DataItem dataItem : dataItems) {
    // process data item
}

Streaming Decoding Example

ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(encodedBytes);
new CborDecoder(bais).decode(new DataItemListener() {

    @Override
    public void onDataItem(DataItem dataItem) {
        // process data item
    }

});

Preserving order of map entries

By default, maps are encoded in canonical format. If you want to preserve the order of map entries, use the encoder in non-canonical mode:

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
new CborEncoder(baos).nonCanonical().encode(new CborBuilder()
    .addMap()
        .put(1, "v1")
        .put(0, "v2")
        .end()
    .build());
byte[] encodedBytes = baos.toByteArray();
