BytesIOEx
BytesIOEx is a simple wrapper over Python's io.BytesIO
which provides additional methods for reading and writing C data types like int8, uint8, bool and so on. The read_*
methods are used for reading a particular type from the stream and the write_*
methods are used for writing Python's basic data types int, bool and float to the stream. Both these types of methods advance the steam position by the size of the data type. The type conversion is handled by the struct
module. Struct
classes are used to maximize the performance. Native byteorder is used.
Installation
