However, at the time of writing, it does *not* include the following: - Anything related to JWT handling/verification - Anything related to encryption - Anything related to compression Decoding packets ---------------- [](#decoding-packets) Assuming you've decrypted and decompressed a Minecraft packet successfully, you're next going to want to decode it. With this library, that's currently done using `PacketBatch`, like so: ``` use pocketmine\network\mcpe\protocol\serializer\PacketBatch; use pocketmine\network\mcpe\protocol\PacketPool; use pmmp\encoding\ByteBufferReader; foreach(PacketBatch::decodePackets(new ByteBufferReader($payload), PacketPool::getInstance()) as $packetObject){ var_dump($packetObject); //tada } ``` Encoding packets ---------------- [](#encoding-packets) This is easy: ``` use pocketmine\network\mcpe\protocol\serializer\PacketBatch; use pmmp\encoding\ByteBufferWriter; /** @var Packet[] $packets */ $stream = new ByteBufferWriter(); PacketBatch::encodePackets($stream, $packets); $batchPayload = $stream->getData(); ``` Footnotes --------- [](#footnotes) This library is a little rough around the edges, since it's only ever been intended for PocketMine-MP usage. It's only recently that this mess has been separated from the core to allow it to be used by other things. This means that API changes might be in order, and your feedback would be nice to drive them. If you want to improve BedrockProtocol, please open issues with suggestions, or better, make pull requests. ### Health Score 71 — ExcellentBetter than 100% of packages Maintenance97 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity56 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community43 Growing community involvement Maturity77 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 78.8% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
