# BitWrap [![docs](https://docs.rs/bitwrap/badge.svg)](https://docs.rs/bitwrap) BitWrap is a derive macro and trait to declare a struct data member with explicit size, in bits. --- ## BitWrapExt Trait Trait declares 2 methods: ```rust fn pack(&self, dst: &mut [u8]) -> Result ``` `pack` method serialize struct fields into `dst` array ```rust fn unpack(&mut self, src: &[u8]) -> Result ``` `unpack` method deserialize struct fields from `src` array ## BitWrap Macro ```rust use { core::convert::{ TryFrom, Infallible, }, std::net::Ipv4Addr, bitwrap::{ BitWrap, BitWrapExt, BitWrapError, }, }; #[derive(Debug, PartialEq, Clone, Copy)] enum Variant { Value55, ValueAA } impl Default for Variant { fn default() -> Self { Variant::Value55 } } impl TryFrom for Variant { type Error = BitWrapError; fn try_from(value: u8) -> Result { match value { 0x55 => Ok(Variant::Value55), 0xAA => Ok(Variant::ValueAA), _ => Err(BitWrapError), } } } impl TryFrom for u8 { type Error = Infallible; fn try_from(value: Variant) -> Result { match value { Variant::Value55 => Ok(0x55), Variant::ValueAA => Ok(0xAA), } } } #[derive(BitWrap)] struct Packet { // single bit field #[bitfield(1)] field_1: u8, // bit field as boolean. 0 is false, otherwise is true #[bitfield(1)] field_2: bool, // virtual field with option `name` // unpack reads bits to the internall variable `_reserved` // pack sets 6 bits from defined `value` #[bitfield(6, name = _reserved, value = 0b111111)] // use TryFrom for Variant #[bitfield(8)] variant: Variant, // use TryFrom for Ipv4Addr #[bitfield(32)] ip: std::net::Ipv4Addr // byte array #[bitfield] mac: [u8; 6], // virtual field with optn `name` to define buffer length #[bitfield(8, name = data_len, value = self.data.len())] // get slice of `data_len` bytes and call BitWrapExt method for Vec // where T is u8 or with implemented BitWrapExt + Default traits #[bitfield(data_len)] data: Vec, } ```
