Package com.rnett.krosstalk.serialization.plugin

APIs necessary to define serialization plugins. Look at the Kotlinx serialization plugin for examples.

For instructions on writing plugins, see WRITING_PLUGINS.md.

Types

abstract class ArgumentSerializationHandler<S>(transformer: SerializedFormatTransformer<S>) : BaseSerializationHandler<S>

A SerializationHandler that automatically serializes/deserializes each argument before calling serializeArguments/deserializeArguments.

ArgumentSerializers

@KrosstalkPluginApi

class ArgumentSerializers<S>(map: Map<String, Serializer<*, S>>)

A {Argument -> Serializer} map, with helper functions to get the needed serializer as Serializer<Any?, S> rather than Serializer<*, S> and to serialize/deserialize all arguments.

BaseSerializationHandler

@KrosstalkPluginApi

abstract class BaseSerializationHandler<S>(transformer: SerializedFormatTransformer<S>) : SerializationHandler<S>

BinarySerializer

@KrosstalkPluginApi

typealias BinarySerializer<T> = Serializer<T, ByteArray>

A serializer that directly serializes/deserializes to/from ByteArray.

ByteTransformer

@KrosstalkPluginApi

object ByteTransformer : SerializedFormatTransformer<ByteArray>

SerializationHandler

interface SerializationHandler<S>

A SerializationHandler capable of getting serializers from KTypes, serializing and deserializing argument maps to some intermediate data type S, and turning Ss into ByteArrays and Strings and visa versa.
