Module nix_compat::wire
source · Expand description
Module parsing and emitting the wire format used by Nix, both in the nix-daemon protocol as well as in the NAR format.
Modules§
- bytes 🔒
Structs§
- Reads a “bytes wire packet” from the underlying reader. The format is the same as in crate::wire::bytes::read_bytes, however this structure provides a AsyncRead interface, allowing to not having to pass around the entire payload in memory.
- Writes a “bytes wire packet” to the underlying writer. The format is the same as in crate::wire::bytes::write_bytes, however this structure provides a AsyncWrite interface, allowing to not having to pass around the entire payload in memory.
Functions§
- Read a “bytes wire packet” from the AsyncRead. Rejects reading more than
allowed_size
bytes of payload. - Read a “bytes wire packet” of from the AsyncRead and tries to parse as string. Internally uses read_bytes. Rejects reading more than
allowed_size
bytes of payload. - Writes a “bytes wire packet” to a (hopefully buffered) AsyncWriteExt.
