Recycle works like a thrift store
polishing bytes to original shape.
go get -u github.com/angeldswang/recycle/cmd/recycle
โ recycle -h
Given the bytes encoded by thrift protocols and the target definition in thrift IDL,
recycle can restore the data with specific type names instead of field numbers.
Usage:
recycle [flags]
Flags:
-h, --help help for recycle
-f, --thrift string thrift idl file path
-t, --type string target type name in thrift idl
For example, you have a rpc service for creating user.
$ cat ./example/user.thrift
namespace go example.recycle
struct Profile {
1: list<string> Interests
2: i32 Age
}
struct CreateUserRequest {
1: required string Name
10: optional Profile Profile
}
struct CreateUserResponse {
1: i64 ID
}
service UserService {
CreateUserResponse CreateUser(1: CreateUserRequest req)
}
Assume you captured the byte stream for a specific rpc request and dumped them with base64 encoded string, you can restore the CreateUserRequest
with a readable json format.
$ echo 'gAEAAQAAAApDcmVhdGVVc2VyAAAAewwAAQwACg8AAQoAAAAACAACAAAAFwALAAEAAAAGdGhyaWZ0AAA=' \
| recycle -f ./example/user.thrift -t CreateUserRequest | jq
{
"Name": "thrift",
"Profile": {
"Age": 23,
"Interests": []
}
}
