Class to set codecs for data types.

This class is used to set codecs (serializer + deserializer) for data types.

#include <holoscan/codec_registry.hpp>

Constructors

CodecRegistry

holoscan::CodecRegistry::CodecRegistry()

Methods

get_codec

Get the codec function pair (with index)

Get the codec function pair (with codec name)

Codec & holoscan::CodecRegistry::get_codec(
    const std::type_index &index
)

Get the codec function pair.

Returns: The reference to the Codec object.

Parameters

index

const std::type_index &

The type index of the parameter.

get_serializer

Get the serializer function (with codec name)

Get the serializer function (with index)

SerializeFunc & holoscan::CodecRegistry::get_serializer(
    const std::string &codec_name
)

Get the serializer function.

Returns: The reference to the Serializer function.

Parameters

codec_name

const std::string &

The name of the codec.

get_deserializer

Get the deserializer function (with codec name)

Get the deserializer function (with index)

DeserializeFunc & holoscan::CodecRegistry::get_deserializer(
    const std::string &codec_name
)

Get the deserializer function.

Returns: The reference to the Deserializer function.

Parameters

codec_name

const std::string &

The name of the codec.

name_to_index

expected<std::type_index, RuntimeError> holoscan::CodecRegistry::name_to_index(
    const std::string &codec_name
)

Get the std::type_index corresponding to a codec name.

Returns: The std::type_index corresponding to the name.

Parameters

codec_name

const std::string &

The name of the codec.

index_to_name

expected<std::string, RuntimeError> holoscan::CodecRegistry::index_to_name(
    const std::type_index &index
)

Get the codec name corresponding to a std::type_index.

Returns: The name of the codec.

Parameters

index

const std::type_index &

The std::type_index corresponding to the parameter.

add_codec

Add a codec for the type (with codec)

Add a codec for the type (with codec and index)

Add a codec for the type

template <typename typeT>
void holoscan::CodecRegistry::add_codec(
    std::pair<SerializeFunc, DeserializeFunc> &codec,
    const std::string &codec_name,
    bool overwrite = true
)

Add a codec for the type.

Template parameters

typeT

typename

The type of the parameter.

Parameters

codec

std::pair<SerializeFunc, DeserializeFunc> &

A pair containing a serialization function and deserialization function.

codec_name

const std::string &

The name of the codec to add.

overwrite

boolDefaults to true

If true, any existing codec with matching codec_name will be overwritten.

Static methods

get_instance

static CodecRegistry & holoscan::CodecRegistry::get_instance()

Get the instance object.

Returns: The reference to the CodecRegistry instance.

serialize

static expected<size_t, RuntimeError> holoscan::CodecRegistry::serialize(
    const Message &message,
    holoscan::Endpoint *endpoint
)

Serialize the message object.

Parameters

message

const Message &

The message to serialize.

endpoint

holoscan::Endpoint *

The serialization endpoint (buffer).

deserialize

template <typename typeT>
static expected<Message, RuntimeError> holoscan::CodecRegistry::deserialize(
    holoscan::Endpoint *endpoint
)

Deserialize the message object.

Template parameters

typeT

typename

The data type within the message.

Parameters

endpoint

holoscan::Endpoint *

The serialization endpoint (buffer).
