package CBOR::PP; use strict; use warnings; =encoding utf-8 =head1 NAME CBOR::PP - CBOR in pure Perl =head1 SYNOPSIS my $value = CBOR::PP::decode( $cbor ); my $tagged = CBOR::PP::tag( 123, 'value' ); my $cbor = CBOR::PP::encode( [ 'some', { data => $tagged } ] ); # canonical encoding $cbor = CBOR::PP::encode( { aa => 'last', a => 'first', z => 'middle' }, { canonical => 1 }, ); =head1 DESCRIPTION This library implements a L encoder and decoder in pure Perl. This module itself is a syntactic convenience. For details about what CBOR::PP can and can’t do, see the underlying L and L modules. =head1 STATUS This distribution is an experimental effort. That having been said, CBOR is a simple enough encoding that I suspect—I hope!—that bugs here will be few and far between. Note that, because L is so much faster, there probably won’t be much further effort put into this pure-Perl code. Note that this distribution’s interface can still change. If you decide to use CBOR::PP in your project, please always check the changelog before upgrading. =head1 FRACTIONAL (FLOATING-POINT) NUMBERS Floating-point numbers are encoded in CBOR as IEEE 754 half-, single-, or double-precision. If your Perl is compiled to use “long double” floating-point numbers, you may see rounding errors when converting to/from CBOR. If that’s a problem for you, append an empty string to your floating-point numbers, which will cause CBOR::PP to encode them as strings. =head1 SEE ALSO L is a B faster, XS-based encoder/decoder. L isn’t quite as fast as CBOR::Free but is older and (as of this writing) more widely used. It’s also technically unsupported on current Perl versions, though, and its GPL license makes it useful only for open-source projects. =head1 AUTHOR L (FELIPE) =head1 LICENSE This code is licensed under the same license as Perl itself. =cut #---------------------------------------------------------------------- our $VERSION = '0.05'; use CBOR::PP::Encode (); use CBOR::PP::Decode (); *encode = *CBOR::PP::Encode::encode; *decode = *CBOR::PP::Decode::decode; *tag = *CBOR::PP::Encode::tag; 1;
