Rust implementation of dtn Bundle Protocol Version 7 ([RFC 9171](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9171/))
This library only handles encoding and decoding of bundles, not transmission or other processing of the data.
A full daemon using this library can be found here: https://github.com/dtn7/dtn7-rs
Through the provided FFI interface, this library can also be used from C/C++, nodejs or flutter.
## Benchmarking
A simple benchmark is shipped with the library. It (de)serializes Bundles with a primary block, bundle age block and a payload block with the contents (`b"ABC"`). This benchmark can be used to compare the rust implementation to the golang, python or java implementations.
```

These numbers were generated on a MBP 13" 2018 with i5 CPU and 16GB of ram.
## bp7 helper tool
For debugging a small helper tool is shipped providing basic functionality such as:
- random bundle generation (as hex and raw bytes)
- encoding of standard bundles (as hex and raw bytes)
- decoding of bundles (from hex and raw bytes)
- exporting raw payload of decoded bundles
- time conversion helpers
Some examples are given in the following shell session:
```
$ cargo install bp7
[...]
$ bp7
usage "bp7" [args]
encode [-x] - encode bundle and output raw bytes or hex string (-x)
decode [-p] - decode bundle or payload only (-p)
dtntime [dtntimestamp] - prints current time as dtntimestamp or prints dtntime human readable
d2u [dtntimestamp] - converts dtntime to unixstimestamp
rnd [-r] - return a random bundle either hexencoded or raw bytes (-r)
benchmark - run a simple benchmark encoding/decoding bundles
$ bp7 rnd

The generated hex string can also be directly discplayed as raw cbor on the awesome cbor.me website, e.g. http://cbor.me/?bytes=9f88071a000200040082016e2f2f6e6f646531382f7e74656c6582016e2f2f6e6f646538312f66696c657382016e2f2f6e6f646538312f66696c6573821b0000009e8d0de538001a0036ee80850a020000448218200085010100004443414243ff
## ffi support
This library only handles encoding and decoding of bundles, not transmission or other processing of the data.
The library can be used as a shared library or statically linked into other apps.
With the help of `cbindgen` (`cargo install cbindgen`) the header file for this crate can be generated:
```
$ cbindgen -c cbindgen.toml > target/bp7.h
```
Example usages for Linux with C calling `bp7` as well as nodejs can be found in `examples/ffi`.
## wasm support [defunct, unmaintained stdweb crate]
The library should build for wasm even though only very few functions get exported. The example benchmark can also be used in the browser through the `cargo-web` crate:
```
cargo web start --target wasm32-unknown-unknown --example benchmark --release
```
Results should be shown in the javascript console on http://127.0.0.1:8000.
The performance is quite similar to the native performance:
```

Loading 100000 bundles with CRC_16: 388394 bundles/second
Loading 100000 bundles with CRC_32: 384186 bundles/second
```
Some functions can easily be used from javascript (`cargo web deploy --release`):
```javascript
Rust.bp7.then(function(bp7) {
var b = bp7.rnd_bundle_now();
var enc = bp7.encode_to_cbor(b);
var payload = bp7.payload_from_bundle(b)
console.log(payload);
console.log(String.fromCharCode.apply(null, payload));
console.log(bp7.cbor_is_administrative_record(enc));
console.log(bp7.sender_from_cbor(enc));
console.log(bp7.recipient_from_bundle(b));
console.log(bp7.valid_bundle(b));
});
```
Note that at the moment all functions have a variant working on the binary bundle and one working on the decoded bundle struct.
