A pure CoffeeScript implementation of Msgpack.
npm install purepack
Tested and works with browserify, so
it's useful for packing and unpacking structures on the browser-side. It also works
server-side in node
processes. In either case, it finds the fastest buffer
objects at its disposal to give you the best performance possible.
Pack an object obj
. Return a Buffer
object.
Options currently supported, off by default:
floats
— Use floats rather than doubles when encoding. Useful when saving spacesort_keys
- Sort the keys of maps on outputs, so that purepack output can be compared in hashes.ext
- An 'extensible-type' function.no_str8
- Don't use 8-bit string encodings, to maintain compatibility with older msgpacks.
Unpack a packed Buffer buf
. Throws errors if there were underruns, or bad encodings.
Currently support options are:
ext
- Anextensible-type
function that given a[type,buf]
tuple, returns an object. Can throw an error if needs be.no_ext
- If noext
option is given, we plug in a default, stupid-ishext
function. Supply this flag if you don't want that.

Testing will run a series of scripts on your machine using node
. It also will
ask you to visit a URL with whichever browsers you please to test purepack
use via browserify
and with your browser's buffer objects.
