func RegisterCodec

func RegisterCodec(codec Codec)

RegisterCodec registers the provided Codec for use with all Transport clients and servers.

Types

type Codec

type Codec interface {
	// Marshal returns the wire format of v.
	Marshal(v interface{}) ([]byte, error)
	// Unmarshal parses the wire format into v.
	Unmarshal(data []byte, v interface{}) error
	// Name returns the name of the Codec implementation. The returned string
	// will be used as part of content type in transmission.  The result must be
	// static; the result cannot change between calls.
	Name() string
}

Codec defines the interface Transport uses to encode and decode messages. Note that implementations of this interface must be thread safe; a Codec's methods can be called from concurrent goroutines.

func GetCodec

func GetCodec(contentSubtype string) Codec

GetCodec gets a registered Codec by content-subtype, or nil if no Codec is registered for the content-subtype.

The content-subtype is expected to be lowercase.
