Add it to your `Cargo.toml` +like so: + +```toml +[dependencies] +byteorder = "1" +``` + +If you want to augment existing `Read` and `Write` traits, then import the +extension methods like so: + +```rust +use byteorder::{ReadBytesExt, WriteBytesExt, BigEndian, LittleEndian}; +``` + +For example: + +```rust +use std::io::Cursor; +use byteorder::{BigEndian, ReadBytesExt}; + +let mut rdr = Cursor::new(vec![2, 5, 3, 0]); +// Note that we use type parameters to indicate which kind of byte order +// we want! +assert_eq!(517, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap()); +assert_eq!(768, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap()); +``` + +### `no_std` crates + +This crate has a feature, `std`, that is enabled by default. To use this crate +in a `no_std` context, add the following to your `Cargo.toml`: + +```toml +[dependencies] +byteorder = { version = "1", default-features = false } +``` + + +### Alternatives + +Note that as of Rust 1.32, the standard numeric types provide built-in methods +like `to_le_bytes` and `from_le_bytes`, which support some of the same use +cases. |
