XDR is an open data format, specified in RFC 4506. This library provides a way to read and write XDR data from ruby. It can read/write all of the primitive XDR types and also provides facilities to define readers for the compound XDR types (enums, structs and unions)
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'xdr'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install xdr
# Reading/writing a primitive values
XDR::Bool.to_xdr(false) # => "\x00\x00\x00\x00"
XDR::Bool.from_xdr("\x00\x00\x00\x01") # => true
# Reading/writing arrays
XDR::Array[XDR::Int,2].to_xdr([1,2]) # => "\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x02"
XDR::Array[XDR::Int,2].from_xdr("\x00\x00\x00\x03\x00\x00\x00\x04") # => [3,4]
# Defining an enum
class ResultType < XDR::Enum
member :ok, 0
member :error, 1
seal
end
# Using enums
ResultType.ok == ResultType.error # => false
ResultType.to_xdr(ResultType.error) # => "\x00\x00\x00\x01"
ResultType.from_xdr("\x00\x00\x00\x00") # => ResultType.ok(0)
# Defining structs
class MessageWithHash < XDR::Struct
attribute :message, XDR::String[]
attribute :hash, XDR::Opaque[20]
end
# Using structs
s = MessageWithHash.new
s.message = "Hello world"
s.hash = Digest::SHA1.digest(s.message)
xdr = s.to_xdr # => "..."
s2 = MessageWithHash.from_xdr(xdr)
# Defining unions
class Result < XDR::Union
switch_on ResultType, :type
switch :ok
switch :error, :message
attribute :message, XDR::String[]
end
# Constructing unions
Result.ok
Result.error("You didn't say please")
# Using unions
Result.ok.to_xdr # => "\x00\x00\x00\x00"
Result.error("boom").to_xdr # => "\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x04boom"
Result.from_xdr("\x00\x00\x00\x00") # => #<Result ...>Code generated by xdrgen, which targets this library, uses autoload extensively.
Since autoloading is not thread-safe, neither is code generated from xdrgen. To
work around this, any module including XDR::Namespace can be forced to load
all of it's children by calling load_all! on the module.
ruby-xdr by itself does not have any ability to parse XDR IDL files and produce a parser for your custom data types. Instead, that is the responsibility of xdrgen. xdrgen will take your .x files and produce a set of ruby files that target this library to allow for your own custom types.
