StructClass

This Python module allows to manipulate binary packed objects as classes.

Similarly to the standard library struct module, objects can be packed or unpacked.

Installation

easy_install StructClass

Usage example

>>> from structclass import StructClass
>>> SomePacket = StructClass('SomePacket', '<II', ['length', 'age'])
>>> my_packet, extra = SomePacket.unpack(b'123456789a')
>>> my_packet
SomePacket(length=875770417, age=943142453)
>>> my_packet.age
943142453
>>> my_packet.pack()
b'12345678'
>>> extra
b'9a'
>>> # Extra contains the bytes not used during unpacking
