A minimalistic NEAT (MessagePack based) encoder and decoder for JavaScript.
npm install a-msgpackMessagePack, but for Arista. This is based on the official msgpack library for JS
(@msgpack/msgpack), but implements our specific NEAT protocol.
``bash`
npm install a-msgpack
or
`bash`
npm install a-msgpack
`js
import { encode, decode, Codec } from 'a-msgpack';
const uint8array = msgpack.encode({ Dodgers: '#1', Astros: 'Cheaters' }, { extensionCodec: Codec });
const object = msgpack.decode(uint8array);
`
In the browser, a-msgpack requires the
Encoding API to work a peak
performance. If the Encoding API is unavailable, there is a fallback JS implementation.
The lastest code benchmarks and profiling is stored in last-benchmark-results.txt`. This also
compares this implementation to other msgpack libraries. Note, that the decoding results should be
comparable to @msgpack/msgpack, but encoding will be slower because NEAT requires that map keys be
sorted by binary value.
