Usage
=====

[](#usage)

For reading and parsing data
----------------------------

[](#for-reading-and-parsing-data)

```
use \ekstazi\stream\binary\ByteReader;
use \Amp\ByteStream\InputStream;
use \PHPinnacle\Buffer\ByteBuffer;

/** @var InputStream $inputStream */
$reader = new ByteReader($inputStream);
/** @var ByteBuffer $buffer */
$buffer = yield $reader->readBytes(4);

$opCode = $buffer->consumeInt16();
$mask = $buffer->consumeInt16();
```

For writing data
----------------

[](#for-writing-data)

```
use \ekstazi\stream\binary\ByteWriter;
use \Amp\ByteStream\OutputStream;
use \PHPinnacle\Buffer\ByteBuffer;

$opCode = 2;
$mask = 1;

/** @var OutputStream $outputStream */
$writer = new ByteWriter($outputStream);

/** @var ByteBuffer $buffer */
$buffer = new ByteBuffer();
$buffer->appendInt16($opCode);
$buffer->appendInt16($mask);

yield $writer->writeBytes($buffer);
```

For recording read data
-----------------------

[](#for-recording-read-data)

```
use \ekstazi\stream\binary\ByteReader;
use \ekstazi\stream\binary\ByteRecorder;

use \Amp\ByteStream\InputStream;
use \PHPinnacle\Buffer\ByteBuffer;

/** @var InputStream $inputStream */
$reader = new ByteReader($inputStream);
$recorder = new ByteRecorder($reader);

$recorder->startRecord();
/** @var ByteBuffer $buffer */
$buffer = yield $recorder->readBytes(4);

$opCode = $buffer->consumeInt16();
$mask = $buffer->consumeInt16();
// ....
$buffer = yield $recorder->readBytes(12);
// ....

/** @var ByteBuffer $recorded  The data recorded after startRecord */
$recorded = $recorder->stopRecord();
```
