}

A key formatting helper trait to be used together with key-value backends for constructing keys.

Required Methods

fn prefix() -> u8

The prefix that identifies the key format.

fn size() -> usize

The minimum size of the encoded key.

fn encode_atoms(self, atoms: &mut Vec<Vec<u8>>)

Encode the given key format into a set of atoms.

fn decode_atoms(data: &[u8]) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Decode the given key format from data (without prefix).

The caller must ensure that the size of the passed data is at least the minimum size returned by size.

Provided Methods

fn encode_partial(self, count: usize) -> Vec<u8>

where Self: Sized,

Encode the first few atoms in the key format.

This method can be used to construct key prefixes for iteration. Specifying a zero count will only generate the prefix.

fn encode(self) -> Vec<u8>

where Self: Sized,

Encode the given key format.

fn decode(data: &[u8]) -> Option<Self>

where Self: Sized,

Decode the given key format from data.

The method may return None in case the key is of a different type as indicated by the prefix byte.

Object Safety

This trait is not object safe.
