Base class for accessing one or more streamable elements.

offset: Position of data, relative to the start of the parent block. Defaults to the end offset of the previous field.
default: Default value to emit in the case of e.g. creating an empty Block.
count: Load multiple elements. None implies a single value, non-negative numbers will return a Python list.
length: Maximum size of the buffer to read in.
end_offset: Maximum end offset of the buffer to read in.
stream: Read elements continuously until a stop condition is met. Defaults to False.
alignment: Number of bytes to align the start of each element to.
stream_end: Byte pattern to denote the end of the stream.
stop_check: A function that takes a data buffer and an offset; should return True if the end of the data stream has been reached and False otherwise.
exists: True if this Field should be parsed and generate values, False if it should be skipped. Can be set programmatically as a Ref. Defaults to True.

get_element_from_buffer(offset: int, buffer: common.BytesReadType, parent: Block | None = None, index: int | None = None) → Any[source]¶

get_element_size(element: Any, parent: Block | None = None, index: int | None = None) → int[source]¶

get_from_buffer(buffer: common.BytesReadType, parent: Block | None = None) → Any | list[Any][source]¶

Create a Python object from a byte string, using the field definition.

buffer: Input byte string to process.
parent: Parent block object where this Field is defined. Used for e.g. evaluating Refs.

get_size(value: Any | Sequence[Any], parent: Block | None = None, index: int | None = None) → int[source]¶

Return the size of the Field’s data (in bytes).

value: Input Python object to process.
parent: Parent block object where this Field is defined. Used for e.g. evaluating Refs.
index: Index of the Python object to measure from. Used if the Field takes a list of objects.

get_start_offset(value: Any | Sequence[Any], parent: Block | None = None, index: int | None = None) → int[source]¶

Return the start offset of where the Field’s data is to be stored in the Block.

value: Input Python object to process.
parent: Parent block object where this Field is defined. Used for e.g. evaluating Refs.
index: Index of the Python object to measure from. Used if the Field takes a list of objects.

update_buffer_with_element(offset: int, element: Any, buffer: common.BytesWriteType, parent: Block | None = None, index: int | None = None) → int[source]¶

update_buffer_with_value(value: Any | Sequence[Any], buffer: common.BytesWriteType, parent: Block | None = None) → None[source]¶

Write a Python object into a byte array, using the field definition.

value: Input Python object to process.
buffer: Output byte array to encode value into.
parent: Parent block object where this Field is defined. Used for e.g. evaluating Refs.

update_deps(value: Any | Sequence[Any], parent: Block | None = None) → None[source]¶

Update all dependent variables derived from the value of the Field.

value: Input Python object to process.
parent: Parent block object where this Field is defined. Used for e.g. evaluating Refs.

validate(value: Any | Sequence[Any], parent: Block | None = None) → None[source]¶

Validate that a correctly-typed Python object meets the constraints for the Field.

value: Input Python object to process.
parent: Parent block object where this Field is defined. Used for e.g. evaluating Refs.

Throws FieldValidationError if a constraint fails.

validate_element(element: Any, parent: Block | None = None, index: int | None = None) → None[source]¶

Bases: mrcrowbar.fields.StreamField

Field class for string data.

offset: Position of data, relative to the start of the parent block. Defaults to the end offset of the previous field.
default: Default value to emit in the case of e.g. creating an empty block.
count: Load multiple strings. None implies a single value, non-negative numbers will return a Python list.
length: Maximum size of the buffer to read in.
end_offset: Maximum end offset of the buffer to read in.
stream: Read strings continuously until a stop condition is met. Defaults to False.
alignment: Number of bytes to align the start of the next element to.
stream_end: Byte string to indicate the end of the data.
stop_check: A function that takes a data buffer and an offset; should return True if the end of the data stream has been reached and False otherwise.
transform: Transform class to use for preprocessing the data before importing or exporting each string.
encoding: Python string encoding to use for output, as accepted by bytes.decode().
length_field: Field class used to parse the string length. For use when a string is preceded by the size.
fill: Exact byte sequence that denotes an empty entry in a list.
element_length: Length of each string element to load.
element_end: Byte string to indicate the end of a single string element.
zero_pad: Pad each element with zeros to match the length. Only for use with fixed length elements. The data size must be up to or equal to the length. Defaults to False.
exists: True if this Field should be parsed and generate values, False if it should be skipped. Can be set programmatically as a Ref. Defaults to True.
