About
Provides support for reading and writing values in Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) format, as originally defined in IETF RFC 7049.
Key Features
- Reader and writer types for the CBOR format.
- Built-in support for different CBOR conformance modes.
How to Use
Write and read primitives:
using System.Formats.Cbor;
var cborWriter = new CborWriter(CborConformanceMode.Lax);
cborWriter.WriteTextString("Hello World");
var cborReader = new CborReader(cborWriter.Encode(), CborConformanceMode.Lax);
Console.WriteLine(cborReader.ReadTextString());
// Hello World
Write and read an array:
var cborWriter = new CborWriter(CborConformanceMode.Lax);
cborWriter.WriteStartArray(5);
for (var index = 0; index < 5; index++)
{
cborWriter.WriteInt32(index);
}
cborWriter.WriteEndArray();
var cborReader = new CborReader(cborWriter.Encode(), CborConformanceMode.Lax);
var arrayLength = cborReader.ReadStartArray();
for (var index = 0; index < arrayLength; index++)
{
Console.Write(cborReader.ReadInt32());
}
// 01234
cborReader.ReadEndArray();
Inspect writer and reader state:
var cborWriter = new CborWriter(CborConformanceMode.Lax);
cborWriter.WriteTextString("SomeArray");
Console.WriteLine(cborWriter.BytesWritten);
// 10
Console.WriteLine(cborWriter.IsWriteCompleted);
// True
var cborReader = new CborReader(cborWriter.Encode(), CborConformanceMode.Lax);
Console.WriteLine(cborReader.BytesRemaining);
// 10
Console.WriteLine(cborReader.ReadTextString());
// SomeArray
Console.WriteLine(cborReader.BytesRemaining);
// 0
