livre-v0.3.0

Added

• owned builder (#35)
• object stream (#34)
• implement Build for Streams (#33)
• implement Parser for Builders (#29)
• cleaner builder module (#28)

Fixed

• build containers (#32)

Other

• update changelog (#38)
• add release-plz (#36)
• reorganise Build traits (#31)
• fix changelog...
• move structures into extraction/special (#30)
• filtering (#27)
• create a dedicated references submodule (#24)

Changed

• Move PDF-specific datastructures from a dedicated structures module to extraction/special.
• Refactor the Build trait (and friends):
  • rename module follow_refs
  • drop blanket implementation for Extract types, allowing more flexibility - in particular
    with Indirect and OptRef
  • drop Build support for types that reference into the input data, simplifying reference-
    following traits.
  • add a BuildFromRawDict trait, that implements Build.
• Modify LiteralString to own its data

livre-v0.2.0

Added

• Declaration of the Trailer type to represent PDF trailers.
• Extraction facilities for cross-reference tables & trailer (regrouped as a single block),
  with support for cross-reference tables & streams. Such a block is described by the new
  XRefTrailerBlock type.

Full Changelog: v0.1.0...livre-v0.2.0

v0.1.0

Very first release of the Livre crate!

What's Changed

Added

• Low-level extraction utilities able to parse any PDF object in a type-safe manner,
  using three main traits:
  • Extract, which defines how a type can extract itself from a stream of bytes
  • Builder, which declares how an object can follow PDF references to build more
    complex objects
  • Build, which defines how a complex type can leverage a Builder object to
    build itself despite the presence of PDF references
• Extractable types include Rust primitive types as well as usual containers:
  • the unit type, which maps with the null PDF object
  • booleans
  • all integer and floating-point numbers
  • tuples, arrays, and vectors of extractable types
  • optional types
• ... as well as PDF-specific types, including:
  • PDF strings (literal & hexadecimal)
  • dictionaries
  • references (cf Builder & Build traits)
  • names
  • streams
