Eterl (External Term Erlang (format))

Eterl is a fast packer and unpacker for the External Term Erlang Format (version 131).

Example

import 'package:eterl/eterl.dart';

void main() {
    final data = [{'hello': ['eterl', 1,2,3], 'l': [{'im': 'nested', 'i': {'also': 'support unicode 💀🗿🥀 èè¨àà¨ü!ääüäöä£üüöäüéèéè>>>><<<<>>~~~'}}]}];
    final packed = eterl.pack(data, 200);
    final unpacked = eterl.unpack(packed);
    print(unpacked);
}

Supported terms

• Strings
• Atoms (only while decoding)
• bools
• doubles
• ints
• BigInts*
• Maps
• Lists
• Tuples (only while decoding)

Warning BigInts are serialized into Strings when dart is transpiled to javascript, and ints when 64-bits ints are supported. This behaviour may change later.
