//! Implements an interface for writing the Nix archive format (NAR). //! //! NAR files (and their hashed representations) are used in C++ Nix for //! addressing fixed-output derivations and a variety of other things. //! //! NAR files can be output to any type that implements [`Write`], and content //! can be read from any type that implementes [`BufRead`]. //! //! Writing a single file might look like this: //! //! ```rust //! # use std::io::BufReader; //! # let some_file: Vec = vec![0, 1, 2, 3, 4]; //! //! // Output location to write the NAR to. //! let mut sink: Vec = Vec::new(); //! //! // Instantiate writer for this output location. //! let mut nar = nix_compat::nar::writer::open(&mut sink)?; //! //! // Acquire metadata for the single file to output, and pass it in a //! // `BufRead`-implementing type. //! //! let executable = false; //! let size = some_file.len() as u64; //! let mut reader = BufReader::new(some_file.as_slice()); //! nar.file(executable, size, &mut reader)?; //! # Ok::<(), std::io::Error>(()) //! ``` use std::io::{self, BufRead, ErrorKind::UnexpectedEof, Write}; mod wire; /// Convenience type alias for types implementing [`Write`]. pub type Writer<'a> = dyn Write + 'a; /// Create a new NAR, writing the output to the specified writer. pub fn open<'a, 'w: 'a>(writer: &'a mut Writer<'w>) -> io::Result> { let mut node = Node { writer }; node.write(&wire::TOK_NAR)?; Ok(node) } /// Single node in a NAR file. /// /// A NAR can be thought of as a tree of nodes represented by this type.
