Domain Specific Language(DSL) for parsing and mapping binary data to python objects
Project description
Python package for mapping objects to binary data. It works with Python 2.7+
Installation
Binmapper is available from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/binmapper and can be installed using pip
pip install binmapperExample usage
import binmapper
import textwrap
definition = u"""\
bintype BinX:
field: uint8
bintype Bin:
fieldX: BinX
"""
definition = textwrap.dedent(definition)
binmap = binmapper.compile(definition)
bin = binmap.Bin()
input = io.BytesIO("\x01")
bin.parse(input)
print(bin.fieldX.field)Data types

Value |
Description |
|---|---|
littlendian |
Increasing numeric significance with increasing memory addresses |
bigendian |
Decreasing numeric significance with increasing memory addresses |
Byteorder can be specified 3-way
Field attribute
field: uint8 &byteorder=littlendian
Apply only to field
BinType attribute
:::python field: uint8 &byteorder=littlendian
Apply to all fields in BinType, except having attribute byteorder
Parse argument
:::python bin.parse(input, byteorder='littlendian')
Apply to all parsed data, except having attribute byteorder or BinType byteorder
Byteorder apply order:
`field byteorder > class byteorder > parse byteorder`
