# A fast binary serialization framework
[](https://docs.rs/speedy/*/speedy/)
The goal of this crate is to provide fast, simple and easy binary serialization.
## Example
```rust
#[macro_use]
extern crate speedy_derive;
extern crate speedy;
use std::borrow::Cow;
use speedy::{Readable, Writable, Endianness};
#[derive(PartialEq, Debug, Readable, Writable)]
enum Enum {
A,
B,
C,
}
#[derive(PartialEq, Debug, Readable, Writable)]
struct Struct< 'a > {
number: u64,
string: String,
vector: Vec< u8 >,
cow: Cow< 'a, [i64] >,
float: f32,
enumeration: Enum
}
fn main() {
let original = Struct {
number: 0x12345678ABCDEF00,
string: "A totally pointless string".to_owned(),
vector: vec![ 1, 2, 3 ],
cow: Cow::Borrowed( &[ 4, 5, 6 ] ),
float: 3.1415,
enumeration: Enum::C
};
let endian = Endianness::LittleEndian;
let bytes = original.write_to_vec( endian ).unwrap();
let deserialized: Struct =
Struct::read_from_buffer( endian, &bytes ).unwrap();
assert_eq!( original, deserialized );
}
```
