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 small-bytearray-builder
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.
