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();
