MsgPuck
Usage example:
// Encode
char buf[1024];
char *w = buf;
w = mp_encode_array(w, 4)
w = mp_encode_uint(w, 10);
w = mp_encode_str(w, "hello world", strlen("hello world"));

double dval;
const char *r = buf;
size = mp_decode_array(&r);
// size is 4
ival = mp_decode_uint(&r);
// ival is 10;
sval = mp_decode_str(&r, &sval_len);
// sval is "hello world", sval_len is strlen("hello world")

Note
Supported compilers. The implementation requires a C99+ or C++03+ compatible compiler.
Inline functions. The implementation is compatible with both C99 and GNU inline functions. Please
define MP_SOURCE 1 before #include <msgpuck.h> in a single compilation unit. This module will be used
to store non-inlined versions of functions and global tables.

See also
mp_encode_strl
MP_PROTO char * mp_encode_strl (char * data, uint32_t len)
Encode a string header of length len. The function encodes MsgPack header (only header) for a string of
length len. You should append actual string data to the buffer manually after encoding the header
(exactly len bytes without trailing '\0').
This approach is very useful for cases when the total length of the string is known in advance, but the
string data is not stored in a single continuous buffer (e.g. network packets).
It is your responsibility to ensure that data has enough space. Usage example:
char buffer[1024];
char *b = buffer;
b = mp_encode_strl(b, hdr.total_len);
char *s = b;
memcpy(b, pkt1.data, pkt1.len)
b += pkt1.len;
// get next packet
memcpy(b, pkt2.data, pkt2.len)
b += pkt2.len;
// get next packet
memcpy(b, pkt1.data, pkt3.len)
b += pkt3.len;
// Check that all data was received
assert(hdr.total_len == (uint32_t) (b - s))
Hint: you can dynamically reallocate the buffer during the process.
Parameters
data - a buffer
len - a string length
Returns
data + mp_sizeof_strl(len)
See also
mp_sizeof_strl()
MP_PROTO char * mp_encode_uint (char * data, uint64_t num)
Encode an unsigned integer num. It is your responsibility to ensure that data has enough space.
Parameters
data - a buffer
num - a number
Returns
data + mp_sizeof_uint(num)
See also
An usage example
mp_sizeof_uint()
MP_PROTO size_t mp_format (char * data, size_t data_size, const char * format, ...)
Encode a sequence of values according to format string. Example: mp_format(buf, sz, '[%d {%d%s%d%s}]',
42, 0, 'false', 1, 'true'); to get a msgpack array of two items: number 42 and map (0->'false, 2->'true")
Does not write items that don't fit to data_size argument.
Parameters
data - a buffer
data_size - a buffer size
format - zero-end string, containing structure of resulting msgpack and types of next arguments.
Format can contain '[' and ']' pairs, defining arrays, '{' and '}' pairs, defining maps, and format
specifiers, described below: d, i - int u - unsigned int ld, li - long lu - unsigned long lld, lli -
long long llu - unsigned long long hd, hi - short hu - unsigned short hhd, hhi - char (as number) hhu
- unsigned char (as number) f - float lf - double b - bool s - zero-end string %.*s - string with
specified length %% is ignored smthelse assert and undefined behaviour NIL - a nil value all other
symbols are ignored.
Returns
the number of requred bytes.
Return values
> data_size means that is not enough space and whole msgpack was not encoded.
MP_PROTO int mp_fprint (FILE * file, const char * data)
print to file msgpacked data in JSON format. MP_EXT is printed as 'EXT' only
Parameters
file - pointer to file (or NULL for stdout)
data - pointer to buffer containing msgpack object
Return values
0 - success
-1 - wrong msgpack
MP_PROTO void mp_next (const char ** data)
Skip one element in a packed data. The function is faster than mp_typeof + mp_decode_XXX() combination.
For arrays and maps the function also skips all members. For strings and binstrings the function also
skips the string data.
Usage example:
char buf[1024];
char *w = buf;
// First MsgPack object
w = mp_encode_uint(w, 10);
// Second MsgPack object
w = mp_encode_array(w, 4);
w = mp_encode_array(w, 2);
// Begin of an inner array
w = mp_encode_str(w, "second inner 1", 14);
w = mp_encode_str(w, "second inner 2", 14);
// End of an inner array
w = mp_encode_str(w, "second", 6);
w = mp_encode_uint(w, 20);
w = mp_encode_bool(w, true);
// Third MsgPack object
w = mp_encode_str(w, "third", 5);
// EOF
const char *r = buf;
// First MsgPack object
assert(mp_typeof(**r) == MP_UINT);
mp_next(&r); // skip the first object
// Second MsgPack object
assert(mp_typeof(**r) == MP_ARRAY);
mp_decode_array(&r);

Parameters
data - the pointer to a buffer
Postcondition
*data = *data + mp_sizeof_TYPE() where TYPE is mp_typeof(**data)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_array (uint32_t size)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store an array header of size elements. Maximum return value is 5.
For performance reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function.
Parameters
size - a number of elements
Returns
buffer size in bytes (max is 5)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_bin (uint32_t len)
Equivalent to mp_sizeof_binl(len) + len.
Parameters
len - a string length
Returns
size in chars (max is 5 + len)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_binl (uint32_t len)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store a binstring header of length num. Maximum return value is 5.
For performance reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function.
Parameters
len - a string length
Returns
size in chars (max is 5)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_bool (bool val)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store a boolean value. The return value is always 1. The function
was added to provide integrity of the library.
Returns
buffer size in bytes (always 1)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_double (double num)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store a double num. The return value is either 5 or 9. The function
was added to provide integrity of the library. For performance reasons you can preallocate buffer for
maximum size without calling the function.
Parameters
num - a double
Returns
buffer size in bytes (5 or 9)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_float (float num)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store a float num. The return value is always 5. The function was
added to provide integrity of the library.
Parameters
num - a float
Returns
buffer size in bytes (always 5)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_int (int64_t num)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store an integer num. Maximum return value is 9. For performance
reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function.
Parameters
num - a number
Returns
buffer size in bytes (max is 9)
Precondition
num < 0
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_map (uint32_t size)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store a map header of size elements. Maximum return value is 5. For
performance reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function.
Parameters
size - a number of elements
Returns
buffer size in bytes (max is 5)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_nil (void)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store the nil value. The return value is always 1. The function was
added to provide integrity of the library.
Returns
buffer size in bytes (always 1)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_str (uint32_t len)
Equivalent to mp_sizeof_strl(len) + len.
Parameters
len - a string length
Returns
size in chars (max is 5 + len)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_strl (uint32_t len)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store a string header of length num. Maximum return value is 5. For
performance reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function.
Parameters
len - a string length
Returns
size in chars (max is 5)
MP_PROTO uint32_t mp_sizeof_uint (uint64_t num)
Calculate exact buffer size needed to store an integer num. Maximum return value is 9. For performance
reasons you can preallocate buffer for maximum size without calling the function. Example usage:
char **data = ...;
char *end = *data;
my_buffer_ensure(mp_sizeof_uint(x), &end);
// my_buffer_ensure(9, &end);
mp_encode_uint(buffer, x);
Parameters
num - a number
Returns
buffer size in bytes (max is 9)
MP_PROTO enum mp_type mp_typeof (const char c)
Determine MsgPack type by a first byte c of encoded data. Example usage:
assert(MP_ARRAY == mp_typeof(0x90));
Parameters
c - a first byte of encoded data
Returns
MsgPack type
MP_PROTO size_t mp_vformat (char * data, size_t data_size, const char * format, va_list args)
mp_format variation, taking variable argument list Example: va_list args; va_start(args, fmt);
mp_vformat(data, data_size, fmt, args); va_end(args);
