Module hpack::decoder

Exposes the struct Decoder that allows for HPACK-encoded header blocks to be decoded into a header list.

The decoder only follows HPACK rules, without performing any additional (semantic) checks on the header name/value pairs, i.e. it considers the headers as opaque octets.

Example

A simple example of using the decoder that demonstrates its API:

use hpack::Decoder;
let mut decoder = Decoder::new();

let header_list = decoder.decode(&[0x82, 0x84]).unwrap();

assert_eq!(header_list, [
    (b":method".to_vec(), b"GET".to_vec()),
    (b":path".to_vec(), b"/".to_vec()),
]);

Type Definitions

DecoderResult
