Crate postgres_protocol

Low level Postgres protocol APIs.

This crate implements the low level components of Postgres’s communication protocol, including message and value serialization and deserialization. It is designed to be used as a building block by higher level APIs such as rust-postgres, and should not typically be used directly.

Note

This library assumes that the client_encoding backend parameter has been set to UTF8. It will most likely not behave properly if that is not the case.
