pyparcel is the simple and secure way to convert python objects to bytestrings. pyparcel extends the usage of struct and provides a simpler way to load classes and built-in types.

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install pyparcel:

pip install pyparcel

or using pipenv:

pipenv install pyparcel

Usage

import pyparcel

foo: Foo = Foo(8, 5.7, "Hello World") # Foo(int, float, str)
data: bytes = pyparcel.load(foo) # b'\x08\x00\x00\x00ff\xb6@\x0b\x00\x00\x00Hello World'

# ...

bar: Foo = Foo()
pyparcel.unload(data, bar) # foo == bar
# or
baz: Foo = pyparcel.unload(data, Foo()) # foo == baz
