Overview

Package text implements the text format for protocol buffers. This package has no semantic understanding for protocol buffers and is only a parser and composer for the format.

There is no formal specification for the protobuf text format, as such the C++ implementation (see google::protobuf::TextFormat) is the reference implementation of the text format.

This package is neither a superset nor a subset of the C++ implementation. This implementation permits a more liberal grammar in some cases to be backwards compatible with the historical Go implementation. Future parsings unique to Go should not be added. Some grammars allowed by the C++ implementation are deliberately not implemented here because they are considered a bug by the protobuf team and should not be replicated.

The Go implementation should implement a sufficient amount of the C++ grammar such that the default text serialization by C++ can be parsed by Go. However, just because the C++ parser accepts some input does not mean that the Go implementation should as well.

The text format is almost a superset of JSON except:

• message keys are not quoted strings, but identifiers
• the top-level value must be a message without the delimiters

Variables

var ErrUnexpectedEOF = errors.New("%v", io.ErrUnexpectedEOF)

ErrUnexpectedEOF means that EOF was encountered in the middle of the input.

Functions

func TokenEquals

func TokenEquals(x, y Token) bool

TokenEquals returns true if given Tokens are equal, else false.

func UnmarshalString

func UnmarshalString(s string) (string, error)

UnmarshalString returns an unescaped string given a textproto string value. String value needs to contain single or double quotes. This is only used by internal/encoding/defval package for unmarshaling bytes.

Types

type Decoder

type Decoder struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Decoder is a token-based textproto decoder.

func NewDecoder

func NewDecoder(b []byte) *Decoder

NewDecoder returns a Decoder to read the given []byte.

func (*Decoder) Peek

func (d *Decoder) Peek() (Token, error)

Peek looks ahead and returns the next token and error without advancing a read.

func (*Decoder) Position

func (d *Decoder) Position(idx int) (line int, column int)

Position returns line and column number of given index of the original input. It will panic if index is out of range.

func (*Decoder) Read

func (d *Decoder) Read() (Token, error)

Read returns the next token. It will return an error if there is no valid token.

type Encoder

type Encoder struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Encoder provides methods to write out textproto constructs and values. The user is responsible for producing valid sequences of constructs and values.

func NewEncoder

func NewEncoder(indent string, delims [2]byte, outputASCII bool) (*Encoder, error)

NewEncoder returns an Encoder.

If indent is a non-empty string, it causes every entry in a List or Message to be preceded by the indent and trailed by a newline.

If delims is not the zero value, it controls the delimiter characters used for messages (e.g., "{}" vs "<>").

If outputASCII is true, strings will be serialized in such a way that multi-byte UTF-8 sequences are escaped. This property ensures that the overall output is ASCII (as opposed to UTF-8).

func (*Encoder) Bytes

func (e *Encoder) Bytes() []byte

Bytes returns the content of the written bytes.

func (*Encoder) EndMessage

func (e *Encoder) EndMessage()

EndMessage writes out the '}' or '>' symbol.

func (*Encoder) Reset

func (e *Encoder) Reset(es encoderState)

Reset resets the Encoder to the given encoderState from a Snapshot.

func (*Encoder) Snapshot

func (e *Encoder) Snapshot() encoderState

Snapshot returns the current snapshot for use in Reset.

func (*Encoder) StartMessage

func (e *Encoder) StartMessage()

StartMessage writes out the '{' or '<' symbol.

func (*Encoder) WriteBool

func (e *Encoder) WriteBool(b bool)

WriteBool writes out the given boolean value.

func (*Encoder) WriteFloat

func (e *Encoder) WriteFloat(n float64, bitSize int)

WriteFloat writes out the given float value for given bitSize.

func (*Encoder) WriteInt

func (e *Encoder) WriteInt(n int64)

WriteInt writes out the given signed integer value.

func (*Encoder) WriteLiteral

func (e *Encoder) WriteLiteral(s string)

WriteLiteral writes out the given string as a literal value without quotes. This is used for writing enum literal strings.

func (*Encoder) WriteName

func (e *Encoder) WriteName(s string)

WriteName writes out the field name and the separator ':'.

func (*Encoder) WriteString

func (e *Encoder) WriteString(s string)

WriteString writes out the given string value.

func (*Encoder) WriteUint

func (e *Encoder) WriteUint(n uint64)

WriteUint writes out the given unsigned integer value.

type Kind

Kind represents a token kind expressible in the textproto format.

const (
