This is similar to the builder facilities provided by
Data.ByteString.Builder. It is intended to be used in
situations where the following apply:
An individual entity will be serialized as a small
number of bytes (less than 512).
A large number (more than 32) of entities will be serialized
one after another without anything between them.
Unlike builders from the bytestring package, these builders
do not track their state when they run out of space. A builder
that runs out of space simply aborts and is rerun at the beginning
of the next chunk. This strategy for building is suitable for most
CSVs and several line protocols (carbon, InfluxDB, etc.).
Changes
Revision history for bytebuild
Note: Prior to version 0.3.4.0, this library was named
small-bytearray-builder, not bytebuild. The library
small-bytearray-builder is now just a compatibility shim
to ease the migration process.
0.3.4.0 – 2020-02-27
Rename the library from small-bytearray-builder to bytebuild, and
move modules from the Data.ByteArray namespace to the Data.Bytes
namespace. This is not considered a breaking change since
small-bytearray-builder continues to exist as a compatibility shim,
reexporting the modules with their old names.
Add wordPaddedDec4.
Add reversedOnto and commitsOntoChunks.
Add ascii(2|3|4|5|6).
Add cstringLen unbounded builder.
Add copy2.
0.3.3.0 – 2020-02-10
Add word64PaddedLowerHex and word32PaddedLowerHex
Add word256Array{LE,BE} and word256{LE,BE}
Add word{128,256}Padded{Lower,Upper}Hex
0.3.2.0 – 2020-01-20
Add putMany, which allows pasting into the same mutable byte
array over and over.
Add consLength.
Add putManyConsLength, useful for chunked HTTP encoding.
Add runOnto
Add Data.Bytes.Chunks.length
Add wordPaddedDec2 and wordPaddedDec9.
Add word8PaddedLowerHex.
0.3.1.0 – 2019-11-20
Add big-endian and little-endian parsers for Word128. This includes
both the single and multiple element variants.
Export reverseCommitsOntoChunks from the Unsafe module.
Add Semigroup and Monoid instances for Chunks.
Add consLengthLE32.
Add fromEffect to the unsafe interface.
0.3.0.0 – 2019-10-17
Breaking change: Change the internal implementation of Builder. This
now works a lot more like the builder from bytestring. It accumulates
chunks and can do a zero-copy appends when working with a sufficiently
large immutable chunk. This introduces a mild performance regression
(around 10%), but it makes the libary more generally useful.
Introduce consLengthBE32 and consLength64BE for efficient serialization
of wire protocols that require prefixing a payload with its length.
Add int{16,32,64}BE and int{16,32,64LE} as conveniences.
Add little-endian encoding functions for Word16, Word32, and Word64.
Add big-endian and little-endian functions for copying a
PrimArray of numbers (both signed and unsigned) into a builder.
Add flush, copy, and insert for better control when
converting byte sequences to builders.
Add shortByteString to improve interoperability with the
bytestring library.
0.2.1.0 – 2019-09-05
Stop exporting data constructor in Data.ByteArray.Builder.
This is technically a breaking change, but it was only
exported by accident. So, with this release, we will technically
violate PVP, and the previous release will be deprecated on hackage.
Add more functions for encoding unsigned words: word16PaddedLowerHex,
word16LowerHex, word16UpperHex, word8LowerHex.
Unroll loop for word8Dec.
0.2.0.0 – 2019-09-04
Use natural-arithmetic to make manipulation of bounds possible.
Add more functions for encoding numbers. This includes
word8/16/32/64 and int8/16/32/64.
Rename the modules.
Correct a serious error in the implementation of bytes.
Make pasteGrowST accept an initial offset.
Add a pasteGrowST for length-indexed builders.
Add function for rendering floating-point numbers in a slightly
inaccurate way.
Add functions for encoding ShortText as UTF-8 and as a JSON string.
0.1.1.0 – 2019-07-30
Add several additional functions for encoding numbers.
