  • Salt Exporter: the story behind the tool
    I also read that Salt was using MessagePack to format their messages. MessagePack is a format like JSON, but more compact. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago
  • What is the fastest way to encode the arbitrary struct into bytes?
    So appreciate such a detailed reply, thanks. btw, why did you choose tinylib/msgp from 4 available go-impls? Source: about 1 year ago
  • Using Arduino as input to Rust project (help needed)
    If you find you're running the serial connection at maximum speed and it's still not fast enough, try switching to a more compact binary encoding that has both Serde and Arduino implementations, like MsgPack... Though I don't remember enough about its format off the top of my head to tell you the easiest way to put an unambiguous header on each packet/message to make the protocol self-synchronizing.

  • Java Serialization with Protocol Buffers
    The information can be stored in a database or as files, serialized in a standard format and with a schema agreed with your Data Engineering team. Depending on your information and requirements, it can be as simple as CSV, XML or JSON, or Big Data formats such as Parquet, Avro, ORC, Arrow, or message serialization formats like Protocol Buffers, FlatBuffers, MessagePack, Thrift, or Cap'n Proto. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • Multiplayer Networking Solutions
    MessagePack Similar to JSONs, just more compact, although not as much as the ones above. Still, it's usefull to retain some readability in your messages. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Optimal dispatcher for json messages ?
    Upvote for msgpack, one of the great undervalued message protocols available. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Rust is just as fast as C/C++
    I have two suggestions Capnproto, MessagePack (those are only the two examples that came to mind first, I bet there are even one or two especially developed for rust). Both of these are better than json in nearly every way. Source: about 2 years ago
  • Advanced MessagePack capabilities
    If you've ever inquired about MessagePack before, you probably know the phrase from its official website, msgpack.org: "It's like JSON, but fast and small." In fact, if you compare how much memory space the same data occupies in JSON and MessagePack, you'll see why the latter is a much more compact format. For example, the number 100 takes 3 bytes in JSON and only 1 in MessagePack. The difference becomes more... - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
  • A Vim Guide for Veteran Users
    The viminfo file is written in its one dialect. You can modify it directly if you feel even more adventurous. The shada file use the messagepack format. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
  • Thoughts on Golang’s future in backend Web Development?
    You should probably also check out MessagePack, FlatBuffers, CapnProto etc. Source: over 2 years ago
  • RoguelikeDev Does The Complete Roguelike Tutorial - Week 6
    For saving the game, I went with MessagePack, which is a binary serialization format. This makes creating the save files much easier: each struct is simply encoded and decoded as-is, except of course for pointers, which have to be restored while deserializing. Source: over 2 years ago
  • Best Way to Make a Simple PC Based GUI that Controls an STM32
    I've heard of people using firmata or https://msgpack.org or https://github.com/NXPmicro/rpmsg-lite or cbor ... Source: over 2 years ago
  • What is the benefit of writing plugins in Lua rather than any other language?
    I definitely don't want to program in vimscript but as I understand it, there "MessagePack structured communication enables extensions in any language". Source: about 3 years ago
