codecs

package codecs

Provides codecs for common types and combinators for building larger codecs.

Bits and Bytes Codecs

The simplest of the provided codecs are those that encode/decode BitVectors and ByteVectors directly. These are provided by bits and bytes methods. These codecs encode all of the bits/bytes directly in to the result and decode *all* of the remaining bits/bytes in to the result value. That is, the result of decode always returns a empty bit vector for the remaining bits.

Similarly, fixed size alternatives are provided by the bits(size) and bytes(size) methods, which encode a fixed number of bits/bytes (or error if not provided the correct size) and decoded a fixed number of bits/bytes (or error if that many bits/bytes are not available).

There are more specialized codecs for working with bits, including ignore and constant.

Numeric Codecs

There are built-in codecs for Int, Long, Float, and Double.

There are a number of predefined integral codecs named using the form:

[u]int${size}[L]

where u stands for unsigned, size is replaced by one of 8, 16, 24, 32, 64, and L stands for little-endian. For each codec of that form, the type is Codec[Int] or Codec[Long] depending on the specified size. For example, int32 supports 32-bit big-endian 2s complement signed integers, and uint16L supports 16-bit little-endian unsigned integers. Note: uint64[L] are not provided because a 64-bit unsigned integer does not fit in to a Long.

Additionally, methods of the form [u]int[L](size: Int) and [u]long[L](size: Int) exist to build arbitrarily sized codecs, within the limitations of Int and Long.

IEEE 754 floating point values are supported by the float, floatL, double, and doubleL codecs.

Miscellaneous Value Codecs

In addition to the numeric codecs, there are built-in codecs for Boolean, String, and UUID.

Boolean values are supported by the bool codecs.

Combinators

There are a number of methods provided that create codecs out of other codecs. These include simple combinators such as fixedSizeBits and variableSizeBits and advanced combinators such as discriminated, which provides its own DSL for building a large codec out of many small codecs. For a list of all combinators, see the Combinators section below.

Cryptography Codecs

There are codecs that support working with encrypted data (encrypted), digital signatures and checksums (fixedSizeSignature and variableSizeSignature). Additionally, support for java.security.cert.Certificates is provided by certificate and x509Certificate.

    Witness for CoproductCodecBuilder#NeedDiscriminators#using.

  5. final class CoproductCodecBuilder[C <: Coproduct, L <: HList, R] extends AnyRef

    Supports building a coproduct codec.

    Supports building a coproduct codec.

    A coproduct codec is built by:

    • specifying a codec for each member of the coproduct, separated by the :+: operator
    • specifying the discriminator codec and mapping between discriminator values and coproduct members
    • alternatively, instead of specifying a discriminator codec, using the choice combinator to create a codec that encodes no discriminator and hence, decodes by trying each codec in succession and using the first successful result

    To specify the discriminator, call either discriminatedByIndex(intCodec) or discriminatedBy(codec) followed by one of the methods on NeedDiscriminators. The former uses the type index as the discriminator value.

    For example:

    (int32 :+: bool(8) :+: variableSizeBytes(uint8, ascii)).discriminatedByIndex(uint8)

    The first 8 bits of the resulting binary contains the discriminator value due to usage of the uint8 codec as the discriminator codec. A discriminator value of 0 causes the remaining bits to be encoded/decoded with int32. Similarly, a value of 1 causes the remaining bits to be encoded/decoded with bool(8) and a value of 2 causes the remaining bits to be encoded/decoded as a sized ASCII string.

    Alternatively, discriminator values can be explicitly specified using discriminatedBy(codec).using(Sized(...)).

    For example:

    (int32 :+: bool(8) :+: variableSizeBytes(uint8, ascii)).discriminatedBy(fixedSizeBytes(1, ascii)).using(Sized("i", "b", "s"))

    In this example, integers are associated with the discriminator i, booleans with b, and strings with s. The discriminator is encoded with fixedSizeBytes(1, ascii).

    The methods which generate a Codec return a Codec[R] instead of a Codec[C]. Typically, C =:= R but the xmap and exmap methods allow transformations between C and R to be deferred until after the codec is built.

    C

    coproduct type

    L

  6. final case class Discriminated[X, D](codec: Codec[D]) extends Product with Serializable

    Wrapper class that indicates subtypes of X are discriminated by type D using the supplied Codec[D].

    Wrapper class that indicates subtypes of X are discriminated by type D using the supplied Codec[D].

    For example, an implicit Discriminated value can be defined in the companion of a sealed trait, along with implicit Discriminator values in each subtype companion. Given such implicits, a codec for the trait can be automatically derived using Codec[X].

    X

    type that can be discriminated by discriminator values of type D

    D

    value type that discriminates Y in context of X from other types using discriminators of D for some type Y

  7. final case class Discriminator[X, Y, D](value: D) extends Product with Serializable

    Wrapper class that discriminates type Y in context of type X with a value of type D.

    Wrapper class that discriminates type Y in context of type X with a value of type D.

    For example, consider a sealed trait and its subclasses. Each subclass could be assigned an integer by defining a Discriminator[Parent, Subclass, Int] for each.

    X

    context in which type Y is discriminated from other types

    Y

    type that is differentiated from other types by values of D

    D

    value type that discriminates values of Y from other types in context of X

  8. final class DiscriminatorCodec[A, B] extends Codec[A] with KnownDiscriminatorType[B]

    Codec that supports the binary structure tag ++ value where the tag identifies the encoding/decoding of the value.

    Codec that supports the binary structure tag ++ value where the tag identifies the encoding/decoding of the value.

    To build an instance of this codec, call discriminated and specify the tag type via the by method. Then call one more more of the case combinators on this class.

    Each of the case combinators provides two forms, one that defines a case with a single tag value and another, overloaded form that defines a case with a tag value to use in encoding and a predicate on tag value to use in decoding.

    The most general case combinators are caseO and caseP (and their operator equivalents, ? and |). In addition to a tag or tag/predicate pair, the caseO combinators are defined by providing a mapping from A to Option[R], a mapping from R to A, and a Codec[R]. The case is used for encoding if the mapping from A to Option[R] returns a Some and it is used for decoding upon matching the tag value. The caseP combinators work the same but take a PartialFunction[A, R] instead of an A => Option[R].

    If R is a subtype of A, then the mapping from R to A can be omitted. Hence, the subcaseO and subcaseP (and the operator equivalents, / and \) constrain R to being a subtype of A and do not take a R => A function.

    Finally, the least generic case combinators are the typecase combinators which add further constraints to the subcase* combinators. Specifically, the typecase operators omit the A => Option[R] or PartialFunction[A, R] in favor of doing subtype checks. For example, the following codec is a Codec[AnyVal] that encodes a 0 if passed a Boolean and a 1 if passed an Int:

    discriminated[AnyVal].by(uint8).typecase(0, bool).typecase(1, int32)

  31. final def discriminated[A]: NeedDiscriminatorCodec[A]

    Provides syntax for building a DiscriminatorCodec.

    Provides syntax for building a DiscriminatorCodec.

    Usage:

    val codecA: Codec[A] = ...
    val codecB: Codec[B] = ...
    
    val codecE: Codec[Either[A,B]] =
      discriminated[Either[A,B]].by(uint8)
      .| (0) { case Left(l) => l } (Left.apply) (codecA)
      .| (1) { case Right(r) => r } (Right.apply) (codecB)
      .build

    This encodes an Either[A,B] by checking the given patterns in sequence from top to bottom. For the first pattern that matches, it emits the corresponding discriminator value: 0 for Left and 1 for Right, encoded via the uint8 codec. It then emits either an encoded A, encoded using codecA, or an encoded B, using codecB.

    Decoding is the mirror of this; the returned codecE will first read an Int, using the uint8 codec. If it is a 0, it then runs codecA, and injects the result into Either via Left.apply. If it is a 1, it runs codecB and injects the result into Either via Right.apply.

    There are a few variations on this syntax, depending on whether you have a PartialFunction from the base type or an B => Option[S] function from the base type to the subcase.

    If you you already have a codec specific to the case, you can omit the 'injection' function. For instance:

    val leftCodec: Codec[Left[A,B]] = codecA.widenOpt(Left.apply, Left.unapply)
    val rightCodec: Codec[Right[A,B]] = codecB.widenOpt(Left.apply, Left.unapply)
    val codecE: Codec[Either[A,B]] =
      discriminated[Either[A,B]].by(uint8)
      .\ (0) { case l@Left(_) => l } (leftCodec) // backslash instead of '|'
      .\ (1) { case r@Right(_) => r } (rightCodec)

    The actual formatted bits are identical with either formulation.

    Codec that includes a signature of the encoded bits.

    Codec that includes a signature of the encoded bits.

    Encoding a value of type A is delegated to the specified codec and then a signature of those bits is appended using the specified SignatureFactory to perform signing.

    Decoding first decodes using the specified codec and then all of the remaining bits are treated as the signature of the decoded bits. The signature is verified and if it fails to verify, an error is returned.

    Note: because decoding is first delegated to the specified code, care must be taken to ensure that codec does not consume the signature bits. For example, if the target codec is an unbounded string (e.g., ascii, utf8), decoding an encoded vector will result in the string codec trying to decode the signature bits as part of the string.

    Use SignatureFactory or ChecksumFactory to create a SignerFactory.
